The Coen Brothers take a break after their masterpiece, "No Country For Old Men". I guess they deserve it.
Light on just about everything, from their normal flourishes of style to their unique takes on familiar genres, "Burn After Reading" is just okay. For all involved, I'm afraid that makes it a disappointment.
The best thing about it was the acting. Give credit for that to whom you wish, but the cast is the only reason I'd recommend this movie. Everything else is instantly forgettable.
