"They gave the dude a pager."

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2003)

This movie is simply great. Watch it again, since it's probably been a month or two since you last saw it. What can be said that hasn't already, other than to comment on the unfortunate (but hilarious) alteration made to the dialogue for the TV-friendly clean edit; when Walter destroys the Corvette in what he thinks is retaliation for the disappearance of The Dude's car, he bellows "this is what you get when you fight a stranger in the Alps." Fans of the film will recall instantly what this line replaces.
The Cohen Brothers are in top form on this one. Too bad Intolerable Cruelty didn't quite deliver.
