Review of The Big Lebowski (1998) by Hotelcentral — 24 Feb 2016

I'm giving this film a Mild 7 because I would classify it as more or less entertaining. If you can imagine potheads and semi-psychotic vets as a source of comedy then probably you will find The Big Lebowsky to be worth the watch. Ultimately, this film is not a comedy masterpiece, it's not deep, and it probably isn't correct to say that it's actually "about" anything. But it is more or less entertaining, which is why I call it a Mild 7.

I'm not really a fan of John Goodman, but in this film he does some good work and actually did provoke me to laugh "out loud." There is also a scene involving an artist "painting" like a Jackson Pollock no one has ever seen.
