Cedar Rapids (2011)

Directed by Miguel Arteta this comedy stars Ed Helms, John C. Reilly, Anne Heche and Isiah Whitlock Jr. A small town insurance sales man goes to the big insurance conference for the first time in his life.

This is a fairly common quirky comedy about a middle aged man “coming of age” when put out of his comfort zone. There are gags but the film is not really consistently funny and the script does little to set it apart from other similar films. While there is not much that is new about this film it is still well made and does nothing to warrant a black mark against it's name.

3/5
