When Ben gets his shirt sleeves caught on fire, no one in the entire packed restaurant offers to help or shows any sign of alarm, only his family. Everyone else sat back and stared. Realistically, there would be reactions and an employee at the restaurant would be held liable to getting a fire extinguisher. There also is no emotion when the situation is handled by Ben finally soaking his arms in the fish tank. The people show no morals or concern if he was okay. They act as if there wasn't anything to worry about. See more »
For a moment, Steve Carell had a couple movies where he showed a bit of acting talent. Vince Vaughn tortured us similarly. But old habits are hard to break, and Carell refuses to truly let himself out of his self- cast mold. Crap comedies. I feel for the actors who partner with him in these mindless capers.
I'm so tired of seeing him with this or that in his messed up hair with some stupid expression on his face. Yet, he has so much potential...a shame.
But the joke is on us. He's laughing all the way to the bank, expending little or no effort at his trade
