From the Academy Award-winning Coen brothers, The Big Lebowski is a hilariously quirky comedy about bowling, a severed toe, White Russians and a guy named.The Dude. Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski doesn't want any drama in his life.heck, he can't even be bothered with a job. But, he must embark on a quest with his bowling buddies after his rug is destroyed in a twisted case of mistaken identity. (Universal Pictures UK)

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.

The Dude as a movie character is an incredible slacker with a capital "S", if I knew him personally I don't know how I would get along with him. The Big Lebowski is a quick whirlwind of storylines that are kicked off by one f*cking rug - it already sounds crazy, let alone after watching the whole movie. Jeff Bridges and John Goodman were absolutely brilliant in their roles, and the icing on the cake was the supporting role of my favorite, Julianne Moore. All in all, a pretty sharp film in places about a guy who has a couple of truly exhausting days.

Not all superheroes wear capes – some wear bathrobes. When I grow up, I want to be like the Dude. Until them, I will imbibe his wisdom and a White Russian during the regular annual review of the holy scripture of Dudeism on New Year’s Eve at the Aero cinema in Prague. ——— Otherwise, The Big Lebowski is not only grand entertainment that never loses its appeal, which is thanks to the brilliant casting of an outlandish bunch of likably oddball characters, but it is also the most cunning and most clever neo-noir film that Joel and Ethan Coen have come up with.

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.
