Anyone seen Burn After Reading by the Coen Brothers? I am a huge Big Lebowski fan (and I know there is at least one other around here) and I like their other movies as well. Does Burn After Reading hold up to any of their other work? I am planning to see it at La Paloma Theater tonight. Thanks for any recommendations.

I went and saw Burn After Reading last night. Enjoyable movie, but not a classic. I would say a mix between Big Lebowski and Pulp Fiction, but not nearly as good as either of the first. The witty dialogue and plot twist just did not hold. Quote from the girlfriend, "That was the weirdest movie I have seen in a long time, but I liked it."
