Here's my take on the movie:
Was fairly disappointed. Brad Pitt is hilarious in every scene he's in, of course. I liked all the character's well enough (Frances McDormand's self-obsessed vanity makes her painstaking to watch, but the fact that she pulls it off so well makes it a great performance to me), but the biggest problem I had with the movie was fairly simple. The movie is a parody of spy movies, but the story is too sophisticated, the situations too real, to derive any pleasure out of the parody. I WANTED to laugh at certain parts, but the surrounding events were too serious to be able to. Overall, I wanted LESS out of the film, because by putting in MORE, they ruined the simple pleasure of it.
