Dinner for Schmucks

Every girl has a secret "geek crush" and for me it's Steve Carell. Ever since I saw him in the 40 Year Old Virgin, I've had a little crush. He's the reason why I watch the Office every week. Who wants Jim when you can have Michael Scott? So I was obviously drawn to this movie because I had to see my favorite geek being his adorable idiotic self, I just wish he was less of an idiot. I hate sitting in a movie and watching a character continually screw up; it's frustrating. And with this movie there didn't seem to be enough resolution proportional to the anguish I felt watching Carell consistently make things worse. I also felt they didn't use Paul Rudd to his full potential. I was waiting for him to let his schmuck flag fly, but there was nothing. And honestly, I could've done without Zack Galifianakis. To me, he's always playing the same character and I got enough of that character in The Hangover. I did laugh, out loud, a few times, but I'm glad I only paid $3 to see it.
