Chuckle fest

This is just a pretty great movie, actually, awesomely cast and so well-written. It has great pacing, the jokes land, the main idea itself is pretty original and inventive.

Movie with an AMAZING cast but, mid movie??

Mine is The Invention of Lying. I mean, it's supposed to be a goofy movie, but it wasn't good either. Cast though is so strange to me, they got all the best comedy actors of the decade???
