Vol met onvergetelijke personages en scènes, de veel geciteerde The Big Lebowski is een filmklassieker van Academy Award-winnende filmmakers Joel en Ethan Coen. The Dude Lebowski wordt verward met een man met dezelfde naam en komt - samen met zijn bowlingvrienden - in een wereld terecht van misdaad en mysterie. (Universal Pictures International Netherlands)

Recensie (15)
I found Lebowski’s “fight for his peed-on rug" really entertaining and I enjoyed myself more than I have for a long time... But then I didn’t see it for a couple of years, and so maybe I idealized it too much, because when I at last got a chance to see it again, apart from a couple of ageless moments, it seemed really rather mediocre to me. Every single actor here is incredible, no doubt about that. It still has more snappy lines per foot of film than any other movie, but somehow it lacks “soul". But maybe in a few years I’ll see it again and it will again convince me that it is entertainment that has no equal.

The absurdity across the board applied directly and only to Dude Lebowski himself keeps me quite grounded for once instead of cheering. It's not that Jeff Bridges isn't cool, or that I don't want to go bowling or taste White Russian, but this time I didn't have as much fun as I expected, even though it is filmed in the way in which only the Coen brothers can do it. And maybe that's the problem... my problem.

Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant! That the Coen brothers can create lovely characters is something I’ve known for a long time, but they have really outdone themselves here. Big Lebowski is something that Czech filmmakers should watch to realise that there is another kind of easygoing comedy than the good-old “about ordinary people”. Yeah, and if I had to choose between the Dudeists and the Fargoists, I would join the former.

The acting is great, humor is fine, but overall, this is just a big question mark. Everyone is scruffy, lisping, and just bizarre, and I somehow can't enjoy the story and sometimes even the lines amidst all of it. From a film, with the reputation of a Joel and Ethan Coen masterpiece, I would expect more than just amusing weirdness, however well-paced it is.

A film with one of the most beautiful, saddest and most inconspicuous characters in history - Donny Steve Buscemi. Alongside the noisy Walter-Jeff duo, the poor, pinned-down Donny barely gets a word in (shut the fuck up, Donny!), yet he's a silent testament to the Coen brothers' genius as the creators of the characters. I personally vote to rename the film from "The Big Lebowski" to "Quiet Donny" because I am moved to tears by Steve Buscemi's humble face. A beautiful comedy, beautifully constructed and with humor you can't get wrong.
