Dinner for Schmucks---a Movie Review



EVERYONE
HAS TO SEE "DINNER WITH SCHMUCKS"!!!  WHY? You won't believe me when I
tell you what a bad movie this is!  I have seen many bad movies this
year but this is one of the worst I have seen in a decade. It is stupid,
classless, unfunny and probably one of the best arguments for American
NOT to remake French films.



It
is Tuesday when all movies are $5, the 'feel like' temperature 101
degrees, the UV index 11 (10 minutes to burn) and i had been indoors for
3 days so I decided a comedy was the answer. I would rather be out in
the sun all day tomorrow than to ever have to sit through this junk
again.



To
give you an idea what a phony this film is the word schmuck is a very
negative word and though it is used in the title of the film it is never
used in the film replacing it with the word idiot--why use it at all? 
Shock value? The film in its ineptness will shock you enough.

I am not particularly a fan of Steve Carell though, I did like him in "The Forty Year Old Virgin", and after this
film I think I will avoid any future films he is in. Considering he was
the lead voice in another film I didn't like, 'Despicable Me", just last
week he is now on my 'no-go' list.

Paul Rudd plays once again the straight man but sadly he doesn't ahve the lines to set Steve up for any jokes. I hope it is the makeup that
makes Lucy Punch look so bad but she has to take the responsibility for a
really misfired what I think is suppose to be a farce performance. The
rest of the cast, most, supposedly, comics flop all over the place.

PLEASE DON'T SEE THIS MOVIE--DON'T THROW AWAY 2 HOURS OF YOUR LIFE!
