DVD Reviews of The Big Lebowski [Region 2]DVD Review: This will not stand, man. Summary: 2 StarsI love this movie. In my opinion, it's hands-down the best comedy ever made. These extras are LAME though. Stop raping my wallet, Universal! Get the Coens involved and give us fans some worthwhile extras. This aggression will not stand. Put out one more lousy revamp of the same old thing again and you're entering a world of pain... a world of pain.
DVD Review: This story abides Summary: 5 StarsThe Dude is a fellow who is comfortable in his own skin. He wants to live and let live, bowl and enjoy a hassle free existance... but it's not quite that simple. He ends up having an adventure dropped in his lap that is so much fun to watch that I had to own it.
DVD Review: Lebowski Fest, here I come! Summary: 5 StarsMy favorite Coen Brothers movie, and one of my favorites of all time. This movie always makes me laugh. The various oddball characters and outrageous plot make this movie one hilarious ride. This movie has a huge cult following, and I can see why. I hope to some day go to one of the annual "Lebowski Fests" in NYC or LA...held in bowling alleys, of course! A few White Russian's (or "Caucasians") are recommended for maximum viewing enjoyment. Love this flick!
DVD Review: Still awesome after 10 years Summary: 5 StarsThis movie was highly overlooked when it first came out. I watched it again after purchasing the 10th anniversary edition. The movie is great, really makes one reflect on what matters in life. Do not miss the dream sequence. The Coen Brothers always paint vivid characters. Should be in everyones collection. It will make you a Coen Brother fan for sure.
The extra stuff is good. Each of the main characters reflect on the movie's impact 10 years latter, pluss other good stuff. Don't pass this one up
DVD Review: language ruined movie Summary: 1 StarsI saw this movie on tv, with all the language cut out, and thought it was very funny. Bought the movie from amazon. Was totally disgusted. The 'F' word was the most used word in the movie, practically every sentence. No reason for it, it didn't add a thing. I soon found myself disgusted and making unflattering comments in response to the characters lines. Gave it away. Should have burned it as the trash it is.
Description of The Big Lebowski [Region 2]After the tight plotting and quirky intensity of Fargo, this casually amusing follow-up from the prolifically inventive Coen (Ethan and Joel) brothers seems like a bit of a lark, and the result was a box-office disappointment. The good news is, The Big Lebowski is every bit a Coen movie, and its lazy plot is part of its laidback charm. After all, how many movies can claim as their hero a pot-bellied, pot-smoking loser named Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) who spends most of his time bowling and getting stoned? And where else could you find a hairnetted Latino bowler named Jesus (John Turturro) who sports dazzling purple footgear, or an erotic artist (Julianne Moore) whose creativity consists of covering her naked body in paint, flying through the air in a leather harness, and splatting herself against a giant canvas? Who else but the Coens would think of showing you a camera view from inside the holes of a bowling ball, or an elaborate Busby Berkely-styled musical dream sequence involving a Viking goddess and giant bowling pins? The plot--which finds Lebowski involved in a kidnapping scheme after he's mistaken for a rich guy with the same name--is almost beside the point. What counts here is a steady cascade of hilarious dialogue, great work from Coen regulars John Goodman and Steve Buscemi, and the kind of cinematic ingenuity that puts the Coens in a class all their own. Be sure to watch with snacks in hand, because The Big Lebowski might give you a giddy case of the munchies. --Jeff Shannon After the tight plotting and quirky intensity of Fargo, this casually amusing follow-up from the prolifically inventive Coen (Ethan and Joel) brothers seems like a bit of a lark, and the result was a box-office disappointment.
