I'm having a perfect moment.
You've got John C. Reilly all wrong if you didn't find him funny in this movie. It's not just the lines this man says, it's his facial expressions and body language that display his pure comedic genius. He's equally as brilliant in the indie film, THE PROMOTION! It's sad that people don't give John the credit that he deserves. He has such wide range as an actor and he's on his A game in this film. I was laughing so hard, it made my wife laugh hard and she wasn't even in the room. The subtext is so much funnier than what the say on the surface and you've obviously missed that. Watch it again and think of the wide range of possibilities that these characters can go, read between the lines. There's a lot of humor in the unknown and I love how they didn't deliver everything on the nose. If you didn't laugh, your mind didn't slip into the places my mind went with the freedom they gave us in the subtext.
