3 star rating THE Screened Review by Alex Navarro

If you laugh at Dinner for Schmucks, you'll laugh because of its talented cast--too talented for material this middle-of-the-road.
GB review user review
Jay Roach Director previously directed Recount

In Tim's corporation, the road to the top is paved with idiots.
Trivia:

Jemaine Clement did a series of viral videos for Funny or Die as his character, Kieran Vollard, in promotion for the movie.

Quote: Barry

Everyone said to him [Vincent Van Gogh]: "You can't be a great painter, you only have one ear." And you know what he said? "I can't hear you."

Paul Rudd and Steve Carell reunite for this odd couple comedy where the only way to climb the corporate ladder is to do it on the backs of the entertainingly dim.
