The
Dude on the Right is getting back into
the movie going groove, and for this one he went to see "Burn After Reading."
He loved it, though not 5 starring loving it. The Dude did like the
laughs, the intrigue, and even the violence, once the movie started clicking on
all cylinders after about the first 30 minutes of plot development. He
thinks Brad Pitt did a great job as the dopey physical trainer, appreciates the
creativeness (and maybe the magazine subscriptions) of Harry, played by George
Clooney, but, in the end, who wouldn’t do anything they can to get the money for
some plastic surgery?
This is a Coen Brothers movie, so expect some Coen Brothers goofiness, but
let the first part set things up for you, and then, as The Dude on the Right
did, you can just enjoy the rest of the ride, especially realizing that Harry
just wants women to be happy.
