Brad Pitt's role doesn't suit him and Tilda Swinton faking an English accent was annoying. The story is a bit lame - not one of the Coen brothers best, but not a total bust either.

It had no plot-line. I was thoroughly disappointed

Absolutely brilliant film. Typical Coen Brothers film in the way that you'll either love it, or you won't get it. I laughed until I cried. If you like the Big Lebowski, you should see this one.

This movie suxed...It was suppose to funny but the violent outburst were not funny, it was really weird that whole theater laughed when a man got hammered in the head and you actually saw his brains splatter. I don't recommend seeing this movie. I was really disappointed.

This movie doesn't know what it is. One minute its a spy movie the next it TRIES to be a comedy I laughed maybe twice. The trailer makes you think its a comedy but the only scenes it shows aren't even funny during the movie. With George Clooney and Brad Pitt in it you would think it would be half good but I was very disappointed and wish I had gotten my money back and spent my 2 hrs doing something more entertaining like watching paint dry. WARNING!!!!!!!!DO NOT WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS LIFE WATCHING THIS MOVIE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!

It was the worst move I've seen in a while. Pretended to be interesting by mixing up 3 parallel stories, but left you hanging in the end by not being able to be smart enough to pull the stories together. Total waste of time and money.
