  Sweet and Funny

  by nursenancy

  This film is SO much better than the previews would lead you to believe. You think it's going to be "The Hangover" at an insurance convention but the raucous factor is far outweighed by the basic goodness of the characters.
  
  Ed Helms plays Tim Lippe--a sweet and innocent insurance salesman. This is really a coming-of-age story, even though he's 34. The script was mostly ad libbed on set by the actors and John C. Reilly is hysterical! Sigourney Weaver is great and slightly disturbing as she mothers Tim, even though they are sleeping together. Even Anne Heche is likeable (I'm not a huge fan) because her character is genuine and human.
  
  If you are squeamish about foul language or sexual references, be forewarned--there's plenty of it in this movie. But it fits the characters using it and show the world-as-it-is to someone who has never been outside his home town of Brown Valley, Wisconsin. It shows us that even people who are loud and obnoxious can have a heart.
  
  I give it a B+.

  fun movie

  by cynth72

  Actually living in Cedar Rapids made this movie a lot of fun for me. On the whole, not the greatest movie I've seen, but a fun comedy.

  Great Movie

  by Spitterson

  I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this movie. I was not sure how it was going to be. It has realistic humor and Ed Helms' character is so sweet. Also, John C. Reilly was not annoying like I thought he might be. Overall, it was fantastic! I would definitely recommend it.

  Cedar Rapids review

  by kvk-IL

  Cedar Rapids was very good --- felt like a smirk / wry sense of humor pervading throughout the whole movie, Ed Helms, Anne Heche, John C Reilly just super-great!
  Good movie about "adult life - reality" --- personally could have done with a little less of the 'dirty mouth' language, but I guess it's reality.

  Cedar Rapids

  by Jim Q

  Move Hangover to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, age the cast about 25 years and throw in some MidWestern charm and you have an adult comedy for adults.
