Damn, I can't believe 'The Big Lebowski' is our highest rated Coen Bros. film. Sure, the film is fun and well-made, but I don't get why DDDers put it over masterpieces like 'Fargo' or 'No Country for Old Men'.

I have to add Spirited Away, too. Maybe Princess Mononoke as well.

I think Lebowski is as good as those, and has more replay value as well.

Yeah I've seen all 3 near enough the same amount but the one I'd always rather watch is The Big Lebowski.

It's easily my favourite Coen film. Better than Fargo and much better than No Country For Old Men imo.

While Fargo is probably the better-made film, I like Lebowski more because I can relate to it more. It's one of those films you can just watch and enjoy.

Why is Fargo more well-made than The Big Lebowski?

Yeah I never understand that criticism. In what sense is The Big Lebowski not as well made? The editing? The lighting?
