I've had the Bowling for Soup song, Val Kilmer, stuck in my head all day because it mentions Raising Arizona. It's really annoying.
I love the Coen Brothers. They don't make laugh out loud movies, but rather surreal like what the hell just happened funny movies. They're so random...I don't know how they come up with this crazy stuff.
I don't know why Fargo and Raising Arizona are on this list but The Big Lebowski isn't. The dude is way funnier than both of those movies combined. Yes Fargo is more critically acclaimed but The Big Lebowski has like full fledged cult status. I mean just think about Lebowski Fest. It's like it's own subculture. Are there Fargo Fests? Not that I'm aware of. That would be a pretty cool name for a Fest though.
Anyway in this movie, I wish Nick Cage would have said just once, "......I'm gonna steal Nathan Arizona's baby" in like a closeup really dramatic shot. But le sigh it was the 80s and National Treasure wasn't a thing yet....I'm gonna steal the declaration of independence.
This movie is funny but The Big Lebowski is funnier. And so is Step Brothers.
Funny-o-meter: 7/10
