I think Burn After Reading wasn't one of the better Coen brothers' films.

I thought it was interesting in parts, and the short scenes between the station agent and his superior were hilarious.

But overall, most of the characters were written waaaaaay over the top, with no room for subtleness. The writers' should have "taken an axe" to John Malkovich's character IMO . . .

I also like Raising Arizona and The Big Lebowski . . . others Coen movies less so . . .

This latest offering doesn't hold a candle to Fargo. YMMV, dependent on U.S. CAFE standards.

Agreed . . . . I often think it's more of a matter getting a script Frances will fit into. * - mr grits 17:04:44 12/06/08 (0)
