Good Morning, World

.

There was about half of a good movie crammed inside of Barry Munday, and it's always a pleasure to spend time amongst Judy Greer and Mae Whitman and Missi Pyle and Jean Smart, not to mention repeated scenes where Patrick Wilson's crotch is the focus of the camera. But I couldn't help but think at about the 45 minute mark the movie was already feeling long. Wilson's actually very funny and very endearing, and even all those suburban douche-bag ensembles and a wispy goatee can't dull his luster completely. Greer has her moments but the character didn't feel fully fleshed out since the script couldn't really decide what it wanted from her. And it's criminal how little Missi Pyle had to do. She's a dynamo, you fools! Use her!
