Dinner for Schmucks

Awful, just awful. Steve Carell's Barry must be the most ridiculous movie character ever. No one could tolerate his idiocy that long. A synopsis says "An extraordinarily stupid man possesses the ability to ruin the life of anyone who spends more than a few minutes in his company." Well it's Paul Rudd's fault for letting this completely oblivious man ruin his life! ps. the word "schmuck" is never even used in this movie, they call them idiots.


The ending is mildly heart-warming and the mice are cute, but is it worth sitting through the whole thing? Probably not.

Mostly stupid.

  2. While I was watching it Anthony came in and asked how it was I said "horrible" and he asked why I kept watching it. I guess it's like giving up on a bad book, you hope it gets better... and at least the second half was in fact better than the first.
