8/10
The Coen brothers really seemed to enjoy making this dark comedy.
Great ensemble cast . It really is just good solid entertainment and some great cynicism.

Intelligence is relative.
When a disc containing memoirs of a former CIA analyst falls into the hands of gym employees, Linda and Chad, they see a chance to make enough money for Linda to have life-changing cosmetic surgery. Predictably, events whirl out of control for the duo, and those in their orbit.
