Company Man Reviews
Political '60s spoof won't interest most teens.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 1, 2011
There's an air of old-fashioned, if somewhat stale, innocence that hovers over "Company Man " as its singular saving grace for being merely a jumble of bland sketch comedy skits.
| Original Score: C- | May 19, 2009
The so-called jokes and gimmicks seem recycled from the worst of the 1960s.

A breezy, originally plotted film... [sunk] by its jitterbug tone and McGrath's jittery screen presence.
| Original Score: C- | Sep 3, 2002
McGrath aims for the humor of early Woody Allen. He doesn't even achieve the humor of early Austin Powers.

Wit is drowned out by caricature, and the antics become laboriously over-the-top.

McGrath can't decide if he wants the movie to be a satire or a broad farce.

With its incredible vanishing hero and its forgettable jokes, there's nothing to stick with you, nothing that sticks out enough to recommend.

The story is thin, and the film looks as if it was thrown together on a whim.

Given the disastrous state of the final product, it's hard not to wonder if it was worth all the blood, sweat and celluloid.

I'm astonished that even at 81 minutes the film contained not even one little chuckle.

The quality of jokes in Company Man can be divided into three categories -- lame, lamer and lamest.
| Original Score: F | Mar 27, 2001
This movie looks and feels so retro, so unrelentingly unironic, that the very guilelessness of it makes you want to giggle.
Full Review | Mar 23, 2001
The rapid-fire gags are relentlessly cute and announce themselves with all the subtlety of a pounding headache.
Full Review | Mar 16, 2001
It all adds up to a few good bits spread thinly across an even thinner concept for a movie.
| Mar 16, 2001
A lamentably incompetent spy send up...a lame period comedy stalled in neutral and filled with drop dreadful jokes rejected from Get Smart! and disbarred vaudeville routines.
