Loved It!
Fantastic!! Very Funny!
I thought it was a great movie, dark humor, excellent acting by one and all, loved all the characters - some people obviously have no sense of humor if they didn't enjoy it - tongue in cheek acting is always is always the best.
This is a movie about absolutely nothing. Don't waste your money ... my wife and I kept debating whether or not to leave but we stayed hoping it would get better ... Save your time and money.
a total waste of time and money
worst movie ever seen in my life. It was a waste of my time.
good cast played well. too much dialogue. good ending. boring 75% of the time. jokes were not that funny.
It was painfull to think i paid $10.00 to see this film
Really disappointing, a real waste of time. I can't believe such high quality actors would do a movie like this - they must've been paid lots, 'cuz it didn't do anything positive for their careers.
This movie was horrible..I wasted 2 hours of my life that I will never get back
This movie took the actors into their roles so completely you forgot who they were. I haven't laughed so hard in a really long time. Keep up the good work Bros. Coen!
This movie is very disturbing.It leaves your mind confused and irritated. Worst movie I have ever seen. I can't believe George Clooney accepted this role to begin with, makes you think about his personality.
Talk about being entertained, this did it. Brad Pitt was hilarious, John Malkovitch and Frances McDermand were superb. All the talent this movie offered came through. See it.
brutal
Very enjoyable for Coen brother fans. Brad Pitt is hilarious and Clooney is as funny as I've seen him. An interesting 'state of union' from America's funniest brillant filmmakers.
this film had one of the biggest shock scene ever! wow...left me pissed for the rest of the movie...LOL overall entertaining, but not as good as ads make it seem.
Burn After Watching
This was pretty much the worst movie i've ever seen. you can have other opinions but i thought this movie was bad. i would give it negative five stars if i had the option.
BIG BIG DISAPPOINTING.1X STARS.
Movie was all over the place. Not sure whether it was serious or a comedy. Not serious enough for a Drama and not funny enough for a comedy. Hard to follow and boring. Brad Pitt played his character well.
This movie, while it has a few funny moments, is all over the place with intertwined plots. You really have no idea what is happening and when the movie ends you are left wondering, what the F***?
not worth a 1 star!!! Awfull. Total waste of time and money. Pitt was terrible and Clooney just ruined his own personna. Take a lot to get over seeing this crap!!
Great Movie, Very Smart Humour, not for everyone who though. Smart mind needed to understand the jokes, but for those with half a brain, they will have a great time. Anyone who doesn't find it funny, go see Ghosttown, that's easy
This Movie was bad! And I mean bad! It started off sooo slow and it was boring. I like most of the actors in the movie and I like the black humor, but this just was horrible. No plot at all and ughh just horrible! RENT IT... Don't waste your money on this movie.
One of the dumbest movies I have ever seen. Saw it with two friends...they agree...don't waste your money!!!!
this movie stunk!!!!! only saving grace was seeing clooney with his shirt off!
Mildly amusing. The only reason Brad Pitt and George Clooney were funny is because they're so famous. Put some unknown actors in their places and it wouldn't have been funny at all. Not worth the money. Maybe a rainy Sunday rental if there's nothing else available at the video store.
Another excellent, dark, and hilarious movie by the Coen brothers. If you go into this movie expecting a standard comedy, you'll be disappointed. Expect something more along the lines of Fargo.
BURN BEFORE SEEING would have been a more apt title.
This movie was just ok. Everyone seemed to walk out of the theater confused on whether they like it or not. You have to go in with an open mind and realize that it is most definately not going to be what you expect. However, there were some funny parts that save the movie. I wouldn't spend money again to go see it not even to rent, but if it was free on t.v I would consider watching it.
ONE WORDE: BOOORRRRIIIINNNGGG!
The dialogue was wonderful and so very tongue in cheek! I think this movie is one that you can view on different intellectual levels as well... and there is more than one message. One of the things I found interesting is how well all the women ,ended up in this movie..... (another message?)
Terrible save your money We left mid way .
The movie is based on comedy of situation. The laugh (making fun of the CIA) was the end of the movie with a couple of smiles during the movie. They start the movie explaining the characters and their situation, then move to developing the situation, and build to small Ha Ha ... the end. Save your money for some other movie or rent it for really cheap. This movie would be funny if it was 15 minutes long.
For people that like the cohen formula of regular people getting in weird situation, this is a great movie. for people that only got introduced to the cohens through no country for old men, this would be disappointing.
comedy acting of Pitt and others is prdictable
overrated. for all the hype and star studded cast, a very mediocre showing
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. You have to appreciate and like black humour to laugh out loud! I loved John Malcovich's character and as far all of the WTF's, that was crucial to his character. One must see if for themself to know if they are going to like it.
Just a bunch of stuff happened, and then ended. Nothing exciting, hilarious or even sad about it. Not worth my money.
a rental at best. so much talent wasted, particularly malkovich running around saying wtf everywhere he goes. particularly after "no country ..", a disappointment. can't hit a home run everytime i guess.
I guess the Coen brothers know alot about stupidity.
the best acting ever with pitt. clooney was sexy as hell!
Absolute Crap! Not a comedy, was bored through most of the movie. Maybe like 2 or 3 funny lines. Waste of time and money. Very dissapointing.
This movie sucked. Boring Boring Boring. It surprises me that Brad and George would stoop so low.
wow did that ever suck...complete waste of my time, I don't have a problem with profanity in movies but it has to fit, this was just cursing for the sake of cursing, although no one can drop the f-bomb like Malkovich. I also have zero problem with violence but again, it has to fit. Smokin Aces had way more brutality and violence but it wasn't nearly as offense, mostly because the violence in this movie was supposed to be funny and really fell short of funny.
This movie was fantastic! It had a great story line, and awesome acting! I highly recommend this movie.
COMEDY ????? I don't think so!!!!
Hilarious
Why do these directors/producers think that the "F" word has to be used so many times in these movies? I think this was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The only funny parts were the previews we saw before the movie, and those all added up to about 7 seconds. It was horrible. Please, you guys, produce movies without the "F" word. Aren't you smarter than that???
It was stupid but funny. I liked it. I laughed, I cried - it became a part of me. We were all roaring with laughter in the theatre.
