Pitt and Clooney's underrated thriller explained.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Although it is not their best-known collaboration, the Brad Pitt and George Clooney movie Burn After Reading recently arrived on Netflix and it's one of the pair's most underrated projects. Brad Pitt and George Clooney have appeared in a string of movies together throughout their screen careers, including three outings of the Ocean’s 11 franchise.

Pitt and Clooney’s history of screen collaborations began in 2001 with Ocean’s 11, a remake of 1960’s Rat Pack crime comedy caper of the same name. Before the duo reunited for 2005’s sequel Ocean’s 12, Pitt and Clooney collaborated again on 2002’s satirical thriller Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. This Sam Rockwell vehicle was written and directed by Clooney, who starred in the movie and gave Pitt a small role.

Burn After Reading Is Now On Netflix - Why It's An Underrated Pitt & Clooney Movie Clooney and Pitt’s Pitch Black Satirical Comedy Wasn’t Appreciated Upon Release Close 2008’s Burn After Reading is not only a great showcase for Pitt and Clooney’s superb comedic timing, but also one of the sharpest political satires of the new millennium.

The plot follows a pair of gym workers who attempt to profit off a bitter former CIA analyst’s memoirs when they mistake his first draft for priceless political intel. This results in an increasingly silly, bloody shaggy dog story that makes a perfect companion piece to No Country For Old Men.

Why Now Is A Great Time To Watch Brad Pitt & George Clooney In Burn After Reading The Upcoming Release of Wolfs Makes A Burn After Reading Re-watch Necessary Since the upcoming Ocean’s 11 prequel won’t feature Clooney or Pitt, there is no better time for viewers to revisit Burn After Reading. Judging by its trailer, 2024's Wolfs will be a funnier, less brutal comedy that leans into action, whereas the Coen Brothers effort was more interested in paranoid satire.
