I saw Burn After Reading last night. I liked it! The performances were solid, the script was funny. The Times review mentioned it had no heart. I’d agree, but I don’t think it suffered for it. Also, if Brad Pitt wanted to only act in comedies for the rest of his life, I’d be ok with that.
One thing I noticed is that they filmed scenes at the Blue Water Grill in Union Square (how is it possible they get their seafood to taste so delicious?) and at the movie theater on 23rd and 8th, but it was supposed to take place in DC.
I was a little proud of myself for noticing the locations, but ashamed at just how proud.
