everybody is weird

David Ghantt (Zach Galifianakis) is a bumbling armor truck driver. Jandice (Kate McKinnon) is his bossy girlfriend. He's infatuated with coworker Kelly Campbell (Kristen Wiig) who accidentally fires her gun and gets fired. Three weeks later, her petty criminal friend Steve Chambers (Owen Wilson) comes up with an idea. They recruit sweet-natured David to steal from the company's vault. He cleans out $17 million. They give him fake ID Mike McKinney and send him to Mexico. FBI Agent Scanlon (Leslie Jones) leads the investigation. Steve turns David in for the reward but he manages to escape. Steve's wife (Mary Elizabeth Ellis) starts spending loads of money. They hire the real Mike McKinney (Jason Sudeikis) to kill David.

Everybody is going full-on crazy weird. The problem is that it's rarely funny and the batting average is rather low. That takes away the comedy even when the jokes actually work. Director Jared Hess of Napoleon Dynamite fame is filling this 'real' story with wacky characters. I wonder if it would be funnier if he played it straight dead-pan. This cast is stacked but that might have driven them to try out-comedy each other.

We Can Still Make Fun Of These People, Can't We?

This is one of those comedies in which we are invited to laugh at rednecks because they are stupid.

In this case, they steal $17 million and Zach Gallifinakis is set up to take the entire blame. It's one of those movies which I saw because of decent talent, particularly Kristen Wiig, and never quite worked up the will to leave early. I suspect it was a project that some talented people were drawn into because some one else was involve

I'd rob a funeral home for you

The film is based on a true story of an odd group of characters who robbed Loomis Fargo, the biggest bank heist in American history. The film centers on David Ghantt (Zach Galifianakis) who was sweet talked into the robbery by Kelly Campbell (Kristen Wiig). Steven Eugene Chambers (Owen Wilson) was the mastermind behind the robbery and failed to lay low and leave town.

The film was a fairly decent comedy, even without the factor being based on an actual event. Zach plays a mild mannered character reminding me of Jack Black as Bernie. Good for a laugh.

Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity. Sexual innuendo, nothing explicit or overtly vulgar, such as: "I don't want him to finger me" type of stuff.
