Sort of a Dumb and Dumber, with a tad more class (just a smidgeon more, mind you)�and a little bit of corporate gobble-dee-gook thrown in to earn the title. The plot is far-fetched, what the characters do, bizarre and the end is from Planet Fantasia.
Christoph Waltz, a rich businessman, playing his usual urbane, smug self, royally screws our three leads, (Bateman, Sudekis, Day), crippling their business and bringing them to the point of foreclosure. With their backs to the wall, its inevitable that a harebrained scheme follows � Bateman being the sole voice of sanity while presiding over the foolish, thoughtless antics of his two mates � and they eventually decide to kidnap Christoph�s son, the spoilt, equally smug, Chris Pine. Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston and Jamie Foxx, each reprise their characters from the prequel, but their plans are so foolish as to beggar belief.
This is a timepass film of the Ready / Bodyguard / Bol Bachchan genre. It just happens to be in English and wastes the incredible acting talent of some extremely fine actors (and the only reason my rating is so generous). It does provide a few laughs but they are far and few in-between. Am praying they don�t go for three time lucky�
