A deserved classic; funny and character filled movie. So many really big name actors making appearances. Jeff Bridges, John Goodman and Steve Buscemi are a delight.
THis was a ridiculous and zany film... kind of picaresque comedy, similar to screwball but without the love interest... so, screwball for potheads(?). There were some surprising visual passages, and the music was spot on.

Too bad: The Cohens’ output is uneven, but usually includes something of value. It would seem that through all this ersatz comedic dialog and during the whole of production nobody took heed of the fact that they themselves weren’t…

Absolutely fantastic and (slightly) under-appreciated trippy ride of film, with incredible pacing from the Coen Brothers!...
A very motivated, incredible cast, gets to mouth countless examples of classically, zany, dialogue!...

A classic. Even if you don't like it, it's part of the culture now. The Dude abides.
I'll watch anything with Jeff Bridges in it after seeing 'K-Pax.'
It even has Sam Elliot. What's not to love?

It was alright, if I were a teacher and the movie was a student at best a C + grade. It did have a few funny moments and a few interesting twists and turns. Towards the end I fell asleep. The movie was produced by the Coen brothers and …

Ridiculous twists & turns carried the story but at the center of it were the characters. I loved the hilarious dynamic between the trio of Donny, Walter & “the Dude” portrayed with the perfect carelessness by Jeff Bridges. All the…

On repeated viewings, the movie gives up more meaning. You have to look at Lebowski as a fabulist, one who has only a loose connection to the truth. The Dude is in bed with Maude (she's going to have his baby, he finds out). He starts…

Sometimes, there's a film. Well, it's the film for its time and place. It fits right in there. And that's the Big Lebowski. Of course it's by the Coen Brothers. Of course. The dialogue is just as you'd expect from any of their comedies,…

With the great line up of actors in this movie and the great one liners that people quote I want to like this movie....but alas I can not. I find it rambling and boring and way over hyped.

While "The Big Lebowski" may seem like an absurd farce on first viewing, it is worth every bit of praise it receives. It's an interesting homage to classic Hollywood, and blends elements from the Western and Noir genres. The film is full…

On the surface, a series of outrageous incidents, mostly played for laughs. But a closer look reveals something more. "You're like a child coming into a movie theatre in the middle of the feature." Whoa! That's a pretty good description…
