Burn After Reading (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2008)


Burn After Reading (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2008)
Rating: 8.0


I loved the absurdly misanthropic comedy script and the cast was fantastic too. The tone and pacing was a little strange, but at the same time it seemed fitting. The whole movie was like a long build up with an almost anti-payoff. Somewhat dull visually though, despite the cinematographer's repuatation, but the film relies more on the clever dialog than aesthetic stylization.
