Review of The Big Lebowski (1998) by Noah C — 28 Nov 2013

Often considered as the Coen brothers masterpiece, "The Big Lebowski" is a terrifically entertaining comedy, with some of the greatest performances ever committed to film. "The Dude", played by Jeff Bridges, is the ultimate stoner, wannabe, loser, but dammit is he awesome! John Goodman's character, "Walter", is truly one of the best characters ever put on film, because of his over the top hilarity that is brought forth from some of the smallest conflicts.

While the characters are fantastic, the story surrounding them is only good, which is somewhat disappointing considering the mastery of every other aspect. Definitely one of the Coen's better films in their humongous library of cult classics.
