Dinner For Schmucks seems promising at first but too many plot points feel forced and the humor is too dumb to enjoy.
August 02, 2010
The movie has a slew of goofball moments that don't add up to a consistently hilarious outing.
July 30, 2010
With moments of fitful hilarity, the pairing of Paul Rudd, Steve Carell and a talented cast of secondary actors, there's plenty here to keep summer comedy fans satiated, if not entirely satisfied.

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

Occasionally quite funny, and oddly relevant to the nature of our culture, but this dinner is a little underwhelming.
September 01, 2010
A decent cast wrestle with a crummy script in this loose and creaky Hollywood spin on Le Dîner de Cons...
July 30, 2010
Dinner for Schmucks may be as broad as the proverbial groaning board, but Rudd and Carell bring out its most toothsome delights.
