Though filled with notable stars and plenty of hilarious bit roles, the movie as a whole drags and annoys, and ultimately proves a little two-faced.

It's worth staying until the end. [Full review in Spanish]

The majority of comedy comes from Carell, who singlehandedly serves up a combination of slapstick, contorted facial expressions, immaturity, and introverted conversations.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 29, 2020

One of summer 2010's most satisfying comedies.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 6, 2020

It follows a familiar plotline with familiar twists, and while Carell and the gang valiantly try to transcend the material, even they can only go so far.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 7, 2019

When it comes to comedy, there's a fine line between making the audience laugh and just making people uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I felt more of the later in Dinner for Schmucks.

| Original Score: D+ | May 9, 2019

It's clear that Dinner for Schmucks is going for a Meet the Parents-style typhoon of misery, but the series of misfortunes that befall Tim are more mean than funny and too contrived to be outrageous.

| Jan 11, 2018

Dinner For Schmucks seems promising at first but too many plot points feel forced and the humor is too dumb to enjoy.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Nov 9, 2013

The actors have been placed in a story that is not inherently funny, and they do what they can to muscle it, through their not inconsiderable talents, into working. It doesn't, and you can see the sweat.

| Original Score: D+ | Jun 22, 2013

Don't believe the misleading trailers. There's more to laugh at than they would have you believe.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 23, 2012

The real schmucks are the people responsible for this movie.

| Original Score: D+ | Nov 5, 2011

The movie suffers by stifling the [Rudd's] natural comic ability and no one comes away from it fully satisfied.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 4, 2011

You know you're in trouble when the best thing in your movie is a bunch of dead rodents.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 31, 2011

Occasionally quite funny, and oddly relevant to the nature of our culture, but this dinner is a little underwhelming.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 16, 2011

A mediocre sitcom serving up a half-baked, 온라인카지노추천 dinner. Check please!

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 7, 2011

While it has a few humorous moments, the characters are either so bizarre or so stereotyped and the tone so changeable, it's hard to like the movie as a whole.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Dec 28, 2010

Not quite the four star comedic meal it promises at the outset, Dinner for Schmucks makes for a tasty repast, nonetheless.

| Nov 3, 2010

Should anyone ever be unfortunate enough to break bread with their characters in Dinner For Schmucks, you'd likely commit seppuku with your butter knife before the entrées had even been cleared from the table.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 21, 2010

There's a little more going on in it than you might expect from a summer comedy starring Steve Carell and Paul Rudd.

| Original Score: B | Oct 19, 2010

Dinner for Schmucks might start out as an exercise in laughing at idiots but it turns into something much more rewarding.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 9, 2010
