The Big Lebowski

"The comedy here is sometimes so sharp that you could roll in the aisle with laughter and not seem any odder than the characters you see onscreen."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz

"Definitively the coolest comedy in a long time."
Montreal Film Journal
Kevin N. Laforest

5/5
"It's the actors that make this film: without the perfect casting ... and without their perfect comic timing, it wouldn't work. But it does work, every minute."
Goatdog's Movies

"After seeing and enjoying
Lebowksi
