The worst Cohen's movie

Honestly, i stopped watching about halfway through. The same thing happened while i was watching Tropic Thunder...and i went into both movies very excited and thinking i was going to love them. It's not that it was awful...it just never really grabbed me or sucked me in...maybe i just wasnt feeling the "screwball" style comedy of it. I'll try to give it a full viewing in the future.

I have never liked any of the Coen brothers movies exept for "No Country For Old Man" which i did not even know they made until later (so i guess that explains some things), Anyways The Big Lebowski are even worst, i just hate Jeff Bridges, watched a new one called "the wrestler" kinda good but he's so damn booooooring, i just cant stand him and why is he even famous? Anyways i'm waaayyy to ot now so i guess i quit while i can. bye bye. Btw - This movie is ok i guess but the rating is way to high. should have like 5 in my opinion. Watch it if u liked "The Big Lebowski" i say.

Erm...Jeff Bridges isn't in The Wrestler- that would be Mickey Roarke.

I suspect that had Roarke portrayed the Dude, there would be less "abiding" and more "abrading".
And harder drugs, of course.

Thats just it though...this movie feels more improvised (especially with Mr Malkovich on set) than anything and i can really sense George and Brad giggling like little girls (possibly even high-5-ing!!) as they added their "touches" to certain scenes.

It is by far the worst movie the coens have made but i wouldnt necessarily put all the blame onto them.
