À propos de ce film

An all-star cast, including George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton and John Malkovich, come together in this outrageous spy comedy about murder, blackmail, sex addiction and physical fitness! When a disc filled with some of the CIA's most irrelevant secrets gets in the hands of two determined, but dim-witted, gym employees, the duo are intent on exploiting their find. But since blackmail is a trade better left for the experts, events soon spiral out of everyone's and anyone's control, resulting in a non-stop series of hilarious encounters! From Joel and Ethan Coen, the Academy Award®-winning directors of No Country For Old Menand The Big Lebowski, comes this brilliantly clever and endlessly entertaining movie that critics are calling, "smart, funny, and original" (Ben Lyons, E!).

Notes et avis

It's no box office blockbuster. However, it will keep you entertained. It's good enough that I've watched it three times in a month. You pick stuff up the second and third time. The first time was a little confusing. The acting is good in the movie. The story could use something extra. It's a solid three stars. I see Netflix gives it two stars, here is 4 stars... I'd say a solid three.

This movie is the type that you have to actually sit down and watch. You have so many different plots going on with each character in the movie. The events that occur to them becomes a result of their paranoia and awful advice from work place associates. Due to this people end up killing or killed. This movie is in my own words intellectually hilarious. So funny because the characters are put in motion over one's quest to get plastic surgery! Gotta watch it to understand.

Strangely hilarious. How do you converge widely disparate charactrrs from health club, private law/detective & CIA agencies? Watch this movie! Somehow, it all fits-albeit; not neatly. Still, it's a zany tale from an all-star cast. The funniest thing is how this film never stops to both surprise and confuse. So much so, that even the CIA can't explain what's going on. Worth watching.
