The Big Lebowski sees the idiosyncratic Coens hit the mark once again. Jeff Bridges stars as 'The Dude', who, through a case of mistaken identity, becomes involved in a kidnap scandal, and has his beloved rug ruined in the process.

If you've not seen the film already, you really need know little more at this juncture. In fact, there's a distinct possibility that you'll know little more for sure come the end as, in typical Coen Brothers fashion, various sub-plots go shooting off in various different directions.

Suffice to say, Bridges is excellent and thoroughly convincing in the lead role, ably assisted in his detective work by best buds and bowling partners Walter (a spectacularly short-tempered John Goodman) and Donny (Steve Buscemi).

Confused? You will be.
