  • what an awful Dilemma

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 30, 2011
    Pros: -
    Cons: misleading marketing; poor characters; jarring shifts between comedy and drama

    Summary: Based off of the trailers, I assumed The Dilemma would be a silly comedy that would be good for some laughs.  As it turns out, the scenes from the trailer are there, of course, but the movie mainly tries to be a heavy drama about inner ... read more

  • The Dilemma Misses the Mark

    Pros: Good music, occasional funny line
    Cons: Dull at times, not sure what it wants to be, improbable to the max

    Summary: Perhaps one of the drawbacks of Redbox is that since it is only $1.20, you will give movies a chance that you otherwise might not.  The Dilemma, starring Kevin James and Vince Vaughn, was straddling that category for me.  My wife and I are both ... read more

    Summary: Plot: Best buds Ronny (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Kevin James) finally seem to be getting a break in the auto industry - they've just made a pitch that could skyrocket their careers, and what's even better, Ronny is seriously thinking about proposing ... read more

  • Childish Humor and Romantic Comedy Cliches: The Dilemma. (Lean-N-Mean).

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 29, 2011
    Pros: Undeniably funny at times.
    Cons: Obnoxious humor, genre mixing. Nothing new, nothing fresh.

    Summary: The Dilemma. When I first saw this trailer, I thought that this film, quite frankly, was going to be awful. I was wrong; it wasn't AWFUL, but it wasn't all that great either. It was the typical Vince Vaughn film, along with Kevin James. The story was ... read more

    Pros: Funny movie.  Great cast.
    Cons: Too heavy on the bromance.

    Summary: As i stood in front of the movie theater with my friend, we had quite the dilemma on our hands.  What movie should we see?  We decided on The Dilemma as it had seemed good for a few laughs in the commercials.The movie starts with Ronny ... read more

    Pros: Ron Howard - Kevin James - Vince Vaughn - Chicago
    Cons: Doesn't know what it wants to be. The whole flow of the picture.

    Summary: A Film Review By: Sam Fragoso"The Dilemma"***/****Who would of thought that Ron Howard would follow up the monumental achievement that is Frost/Nixon, with The Dilemma? Not me, that’s for sure. However his new film is being ... read more

    Jan 23, 2011
    Pros: Hysterical, funny plot, well crafted acting, extreme action, ultimately sweet.
    Cons: Sexual content not for children or preteens.

    Summary: When my Girls' Night Out movie group decided to see The Dilemma together, my first thought was, "Ugh. Probably another lame comedy." Thankfully, I could not have been more wrong ~ we laughed hysterically throughout the movie, and none of us could ... read more

  • Funny, Good date movie

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 18, 2011
    Pros: Funny, entertaining, Good date movie
    Cons: Kevin James let down

    Summary: Starring Vince Vaughn (Wedding Crashers, Dodgeball), & Kevin James (Paul Blart: Mall Cop), those two actors alone should tell you going in what kind of humor to expect. The basic plot is that the lead (Vaughn) suspects his best friend's wife is ... read more

    Pros: A decent drama, good acting by Vaughn
    Cons: Not the comedy the movie is billed.

    Summary: After laughing hysterically through the trailers for this movie I was really anxious to see “The Dilemma.” I was excited that two of my favorite comedians (Kevin James and Vince Vaughn) were being brought together and directed by ... read more
