REVIEW: The Coen Brothers' - Burn After Reading
Posted by Gemma Jaleel on November 14, 2008 2:39 PM
By JOSEPH CRAWFORD
UNWITTINGLY witty, disturbingly funny, confusingly simple...yes, sounds like another Coen Brother's hit.
Ethan and Joel's latest creation shows the power of escalation and misunderstanding in this off-beat dark comedy.
With high expectations, Burn After Reading has a rather simple narrative and yet the Brothers manage to create such a web of confusion and insecurity that it becomes highly entertaining.
The movie starts with CIA data analyst Osbourne Cox, played superbly by John Malkovich as an arrogant, self important, angry man, being fired for having a "drinking problem".

Latest James Bond blockbuster Quantum of Solace review
Posted by KMatthews on November 3, 2008 9:37 AM
By JOHN SIDDLE
The name's Bland, James Bland.
007 returns to action for the 22nd time, but his biggest nemesis this time is the narrative.
Quantum of Solace, effectively a sequel to 2006's smash hit, Casino Royale, is full of perspiration and production with some stunning passages of breathtaking action.
But the essence of what has made Bond, a franchise nearly 50 years strong, has been ruthlessly culled; the charm, the quips, the romance, and the trademark double-entendres.
