Ricardo D Lol Critic didn't understand comedy Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Steve C This is a solid dark comedy that is well written. The cast does a great job, with a crafty script and the movie is paced well. It's fun, has a bit of suspense, and the sound track is cool. The real surprise is Schwimmer. He manages to win you over without channeling Ross. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/06/25 Full Review john h A must-see for all Simon Pegg fans. The comedy and subtle inferences in Big Nothing aren't attracted by everyone, although, if you happen to understand the chemistry of the film's comedy and theatrical-like structure, then it will be a fun rollercoaster ride for all comedy-crime lovers. Co-written by the director Jean-Baptiste Andrea and the story being marginally supported and driven by the cast. Such performances by Jon Polito as the ridiculously deceptive detective, Natascha McElhone as David Schwimmer's wife, the struggling father, Simon Pegg as the American pathological liar and Alice Eve as the counterpart to the movie's "Oregon Murderer" all wrap the film up into an extremely interesting, niche watch.

It was wittily funny in a way that Pegg and Schwimmer could only pull off. I laughed out loud in places, which was unexpected, but satisfying. The plot meananders a bit, and the ending takes a bit too long, but overall I would recommend this movie for a Thursday night when you don't want to do too much. It certainly keeps you entertained. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review michael t A very black comedy. The first time I watched it the humor was mostly lost on me- I was caught up in the angst as the body count climbed and almost didn't stick it out. Second time through the absurdity of it all came to the fore, sort of like the second time I saw The Big Lebowski. The endless plot twists keep it lively. A good cast made the most of the material. I thought it was better than the critics rated it. The title is apt for various reasons. I came for Alice Eve. Unfortunately she didn't have a very convivial character (nobody did), as in She's Out of My League. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
