Movie Review: Dinner for Schmucks (2nd Take)



Director: Jay Roach
Year: 2010
Genre: Comedy?
Notable Cast: Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Zack Galifianakis, Jemaine Clement
Netflix Link: Dinner for Schmucks
Quote to Note: Vincent Van Gogh. Everyone said to him, "You can't be a great painter, you only have one ear." And you know what he said? "I can't hear you."

Review: Fortunately for our two readers I am more highly trained in the art of boatography on film than my counterpart. DrunkPaper reported that Dinner for Schmucks is devoid of our favorite form of transportation, but this movie actually has two scenes featuring boats early on in the film. The first involves Barry the Retard played by Steve Carell. He creates "mouseterpieces" by using his taxidermy skills on mouse corpses and putting them in historically relevant situations. In one of these "works of art" there are two mice in a cheese boat (which is a new type of watercraft never discussed before on this site). Second they show a Swiss business man yachting.

On to the movie itself, sea-faring vessels aside, DrunkPaper was dead-on with his review of this stool sample. Dinner for Schmucks is a peanut lodged into the giant shit of life. It's inevitable that you will eat one, but damn it hurts when it comes out.

Sorry, this is the best picture I could find but I thought it was worth showing since we may never be graced by a boat of this type again.



Score:
(4 Nolte Heads out of 10)
