Default Note to all: DO NOT SEE Burn After Reading

Seriously one of the worst films I've seen in the last 5-6 years. I've seen a lot of bad movies in my life, and like many bad ones, but this ...

Roommate: "I'd rather watch Army of Darkness 20 times than watch that again"
Roommate: "I'm doing to write the Cohen Brothers and demand my nine dollars back."
Me: "Sex and the City was better"

Everyone: (silence & pause) ... ... ... ... probably.

Seriously, don't see this, don't waste your time.

Pitt's reasoning for doing the film, "I've been interested in American characters lately. I find America really interesting over the past decade, so that's what I've been doing."

So deep..

I thought with Malkovich in it and the way the Cohen brothers worked with Clooney in 'O' Brother where art thou'' this would be hilarious -
thanks for the warning
Army of Darkness sucked but Evil dead 2 was funny as hell .

the critics seem to overwhelming disagree with you. But I'm sure they are all wrong and your assessment is right *eyes rolling*

Not that the movie will necessarily suck, but "the critics" are hardly who I would take an opinion from on a movie....

true. but the reason i like rottontomatoes is because it doesn't just take into account a few handpicked reviews, rather it considers HUNDREDS of them to form a general concensus.

But you're right it is probably better to listen to ONE internet D-bag on a wrestling website :-)

Jason,

As I was running errands today, I heard the tail end of a review of "Burn" on NPR where the critic really tore into the movie... and he said, "I'm really a Coen Brothers fan, but..." He said it was very condescending, as if the Coens were holding the movie audience in contempt. So... you have at least one film critic in your corner.

Mark
