I would thoroughly recommend this film to anyone who has the capacity to laugh at humanity's foibles. It is a wonderful satire on the human race. If you take yourself too seriously you might not enjoy it, you have to understand where the players mot... full review

You would expect something great from stars such as Clooney and Pitt, but in my opinion, this film is so overrated and should be renamed burn after watching because I feel so strongly that it is very unsatisfactory. Quite simply, it is about affairs that ... full review

I don't regret watching this movie. It had a mixture of everything and I especially liked Brad Pitt's dance at the gym. That was totally out of character and fun to watch. Everyone in this movie is linked to some other person in a crazy, tangled ... full review

It was confused, unfunny and it disappoints me that the bothers are scraping the barrell with their repitive theme of treasure, gratuitous violence and the stupid chase. What ever happened to the Fargo's and the Big Labowski? Alan full review

Could have been a really good black comedy, but not black or comical enough, quite. The ending was too cheap also! Would be ok on tv but the audience would not be bothered too much about popping out now and again. full review

Possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. I kept thinking that we would get some humour or entertainment soon. Excessive use of the F word. Clearly the American humour doesn't translate to English. full review
