The dude is not my favorite

No matter how many times I give it a chance, The Big Lebowski angers me beyond most films. I just really hate watching it. I think what enrages me most is that it’s not a badly made movie. I can’t really pick anything out of the cinematography or directing that I hate, but I think the story is incredibly dumb and pointless. I don’t find it funny or cute or even amusing. I can see why people love it and I understand why it is the way it is, but I personally find it torture to sit through. I think it’s a very particular comedy made for a very select audience, I just don’t happen to be one of them.
