Boring. Vince Vaughn phoned it in.
Vince is a terrific actor. Huge Kevin James fan as well. I don't recall laughing much; there was a lot of suspense.
There is a lot more to this movie than meets the eye. If you are looking for a mindless slapstick comedy, you will be disappointed. While there are some funny scenes, there is a good, solid message about truth, honesty and friendship.
A good, not great movie. Worth renting.
not funny :/

Vaughn is the film equivalent of a well-known novelist that no longer gets a good edit. He has the charismatic salesguy shtick down, but he needs a director who can rein him in. Full Review

Ms. Ryder, playing the least sympathetic character with unflinching dignity and candor, is in many ways the reason The Dilemma works as well as it does. Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle
Despite bursts of hilarity and an A-list cast, this is a dark, difficult, weirdly existential film - like some seriocomic spin on "I and Thou." Full Review

What The Dilemma ultimately does best is create a platform for Vaughn to drag that iconic character of his into full-blown adulthood. Full Review

The Dilemma downshifts from slapstick to melodrama and back so abruptly that it is at times jarring. Full Review
