The Coens are loopy stylists, and it's often amusing to watch this comedy of errors unfold. But after a masterpiece like No Country for Old Men, Burn After Reading is classified as disposable.

A comedy so stupid, it doesn't realise it's a comedy. If intelligence is relative, then ignorance is bliss.

Movie Talk

Yet again the Coens parade a carnival of stupidity before us, another cavalcade of caricatured schmucks, imbeciles and idiots.

, Frances McDormand might get nominated for an Academy Award in a supporting role. She was great.

Seldom has a comedy about such thoroughly dumb individuals been so engaging, or so insightful.

Burn After Reading is a piffle, but it's a savagely amusing one.

It might be the same old song, but I could watch these guys play it over and over again.

For fans of the Coens... it suggests, especially on the heels of No Country for Old Men, that they have rediscovered their cinematic vision after several lean years.

On screen, delusional schmoes are more fun than smart people, and in the latest film from Joel and Ethan Coen, the imperious former spook played by John Malkovich accuses his blackmailers...of heading a league of morons.

American Profile

A quirky tale of lust, greed, vanity, idiocy and ineptitude that spreads its giggly ripples through the bureaucratic buildings and leafy suburbs of Washington, D.C.

Stop Smiling

Burn After Reading maintains comic balance, and after so many smart, gutsy Coen movies (many in the note of madcap), that shouldn't be a surprise.

These are functioning morons, they walk and work among us. And they are brilliant and funny and in spite of the screwball-comedy nature of the story, they are completely believable.
