Burn After Reading

PhotobucketPhotobucketOdd spy comedy about two dimwitted gym employees that decide to exploit a memoir they find of an ex-CIA official. Film is populated by people so selfish and stupid, we really couldn’t care less about them. George Clooney’s character is particularly repulsive. Uneven tone is punctuated by misplaced flashes of violence and one truly unsettling sexual device. Some amusing bits, but ultimately a minor Coen brothers film.
