"Intelligence is relative."

Burn After Reading (2008)
Directed by The Coen Brothers, rated R, 96 minutes

Burn After Reading is a wildly funny dark comedy about dumb people. Two gym employees try to make some money off a disk containing CIA intel that's left in their gym. The entire cast is marvelous: Brad Pitt really lets loose, and John Malkovich is darkly hilarious. The Coen brothers craft a very funny, and interesting film, populated with hilariously stupid, but enticing characters. You'll like it if: You like dark comedies, movies about the CIA/espionage, Fargo or John Malkovich.
