Funniest Movie of the year
An all-star cast along for a hilarious ride, with the Coen brothers at the helm, fresh off of their Best Picture Oscar for No Country for Old Men? It just screams potential, and delivers in spades
Wisely switching gears from action flicks to the other genre they do well, the Coens have mde me laugh harder than anytime in recent memory. The movie is a gold mine of ridiculous personalities, over the top actions, and impossibly hilarious situations
The movie follows multiple different threads, and how those come together, and how everyone views each escalating situation, forms the backbone of this comedy. The movie really peaks when J.K. Simmons and the government try to make heads or tails of what is going on. He expertly brings everything together while simultaneously turning it all on its head, and good luck trying to make it out of his scenes without a sharp pain in your side and a tear in your eye from laughter
This is a supremely enjoyable movie, can't wait to see it again

WORST MOVIE EVER!!!!
I had been looking forward to seeing this movie and finally saw it last night.
My rating:
WORST MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was stupid, made no sense, had no plot line, etc.
I usually love both Clooney and Pitt movies (Leatherhead & Mr. and Mrs. Smith were awesome!!!), but this was pathetic. All they did all movie was say "f u," sleep with each other, and shoot everyone.
The originial plotline (or at least what I thought was supposed to be the plotline) was switched halfway through the movie.
I guess what they were trying to do was show how stupidly convoluted our world is, but they failed. ULTIMATE FAIL!!!!!
You can probably tell that I am very mad at having to waste 2 hrs sitting through that sad movie, waiting for when they would tie the story together. And as you might of guessed, that never happened...
On the other hand, I watched WALL-E later, which is a good movie and which brightened up my evening, so it wasn't as depressing :)
