Burn (yourself) After (watching)

I saw the new Coen Brothers movie "Burn After Reading" recently and I didn't like it at all. I don't know why I even saw it other than that mainstream pop culture has been slobbing these guys' nobs harder than ever after "No Country For Old Men", which to be totally transparent I didn't see (or read the book). This movie had an amazing cast, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and a few other Coen mainstays who didn't disappoint. Except Pitt, he sucked, the usual charm of Clooney and Pitt, you know them seeming like they are having so much fun onscreen was over the top for Pitt, he just was so blatantly ACTING, it sucked. Everyone else was great, Malkovich is a fucking gem but the movie itself wasn't really a movie. I mean sure, it had a plot and all, but it was really just some really well done scenes strung together which left you wanting more and confused at the end. Film geeks/buffs might have loved it, there might have been homage to styles of Hollywood past or whatever, but it just felt like they were having too much fun themselves and not really thinking of the movie goer which makes me worry whether these guys, after a number of hits from the 80's through the 00's have jumped the shark.
