Dinner for Schmucks

Paul Rudd is the straight man in this comedy of errors as his character tries to climb the corporate ladder and marry his girlfriend. All goes wrong when he runs into his candidate (Steve Carell) for the "Dinner with a Winner" contest. Carell is the perfect lovable idiot. Alien found it a lot funnier than he expected. The gags are carefully staged and build to a hilarious climax at the dinner party. Stay through the credits for one more mouse diorama.

Alien gives it 3 "mouse-terpiece" stars out of 4.
