Tim has just made the leap to upper management and, with the executive bog key safely tucked into his pocket, he is invited by his new colleagues to take part in a less than charming monthly dinner game. The objective? To invite the most cretinous and socially awkward person you can find and, when Tim bumps into Barry, he knows he’s met his man. 'Dinner for Schmucks' works well as a simple farce, but when compared to the delicious, vicious, satirical genius that was the French original, ‘Le Diner De Cons’, it looks pretty sentimental and flabby.
