It started out fairly poor but luckily it improved lots in the second half of the movie.

Story of unexpectedly unemployed go-getter who turns into a go-getter thief had some laughs, but no sidesplitting moments. There is a reason you have not heard of this movie, despite the cast.

Doesn’t help that I can’t really stand Jim Carey but, garbage all the same.

Such a laugh riot! Funny all the way through. The way it ended was very satisfying.

Fun with Dick and Jane is a subpar comedy that tries to be clever but falls flat. After getting promoted to Vice President and setup as the fall guy for his company’s imminent collapse, Dick Harper finds himself unemployable and resorts to a life of crime, along with his wife, to stop from losing their house. Starring Jim Carrey, Téa Leoni, Alec Baldwin, and Richard Jenkins, the film has a strong cast, but their performances are pretty weak (particularly Carrey who plays up the slap-stick to the extreme). However the script doesn’t help any, as the characters are all written as broad caricatures and the political commentary couldn’t be more heavy-handed. Still, some of the jokes work and the soundtrack does a good job at complimenting the tone of the film. Yet while it has its entertaining moments, Fun with Dick and Jane is a convoluted mess.

Like cotton candy for breakfast, the rush crashes quickly and leaves you with a headache.

When slapstick goes bad...
