I saw it in theaters and thought it was good, gave it a 7/10. But it's grown on me so much, I've probably seen it 10 times since. I can't give it anything less than a 10/10.
I love the small scale of the movie, I love the indie feel. It’s very funny and very sweet with surprisingly fleshed out, original characters.
There's some mixed feelings on this message board. Anyone feel like me?
I always felt like this movie had a national lampoons feel to it. Lo and behold Ed Helms starred in Vacation four years later.
shareI saw it in the theater too, and really enjoyed it. Since then, I've probably watched it 10+ times. After college, I was in the insurance industry, and those conventions did get crazy. Good times. Great movie, it's my "comfort" movie.
shareI loved it...one of my favorites that you can watch over and over...
My favorite line: "Why are you showing me a picture of your mom? I mean shes hot but..."
Yes ... rented this movie in 2011 and was about to turn it off after 10 minutes because i was feeling it was going to be embarrassingly bad kept with it and absolutely loved it watched it again the next day.
Then like 4 years ago it was on the movies and i watched it again back to back but i haven't seen it since. Time to get on it again.

shareThis is a great movie, but for me it's because I had a college room mate that was a spitting image of Tim Lippe that acted the same way, and I've also been to weekend work conferences just like the one in the film.
shareOne of my all time favorites: Being from the Midwest, it nails the mentality. The charm is just seeped into it...some parts just kill me -- John C. Reilly kills it....Ed Helms makes me love Tim Lippe...I just adore this film.
No -- it's not a laugh a minute. No...it's not a spanning story....it's a lovely little story with interesting, relatable characters, and some great comedy bits.
A movie doesn't have to hit you over the head with FX or Comedy every minute to be worthy of praise...and this is a nice little story told through terrific characters.
Nothing about it not to love!
