Cedar Rapids

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Cedar Rapids

Post by Leisher »

Briefly mentioned here.

Ed Helms is an insurance agent who was supposed to be like Steve Carroll's 40 Year Old Virgin character...I guess? He's very immature or socially awkward, however you want to put it, but is banging Susan Sarandon. Due to a co-worker's death, he takes that guy's place on a trip to Cedar Rapids for an insurance convention. Once there he meets up with a cast of characters, including John C. Reilly.

This is a good movie, but not great. It's not a total comedy, but has its moments. I guess this is a true dramedy, but a little bit heavier on the comedy.

Enjoyable characters, and none are too far out of the realm of reality.

You'll get a couple of chuckles, but this isn't a classic.
