David G I made this account just to say this isn't the best movie I've ever seen but its pretty good. All these people on here writing an in-depth analysis on this silly comedy are nuts. If you find yourself constantly offended by things other people say, then find something else. If you're a normal human being looking for a fun entertaining movie it's not bad, give it a watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/25/25 Full Review Martin B How did Ron Howard get involved with this clunky mess? Decent cast, tried a bunch of formula gimmicks, Vince Vaughn the glue to hold it all together and almost none of it worked. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/25 Full Review Blu B Well it's the better one of the Kevin James 2011 movies. But that's not saying much. The acting is alright. It starts out kind of promising but he longer it goes the more the dialouge just weighs and the humor is somwhere between flat and terribly unfunny. It's dumb, not well set up, repetitive, and just falls flat. James isn't bad and probably the best thing acting wise. Vaughn starts out good but the longer it goes the more unfunny, unlikeable, and dumb his character gets. Connelly I honestly wonder what the point of having her here as I struggle to find a reason for her to be here. And what a waste for Ryder. If the humor was better and a better script this may work because I struggle to see how you can't make something passable with this all star cast but here we are. Everything else is subpar. The direction is pretty basic despite lots of production value. The fact this is Ron Howard is just mind boggling also. There are some dumb and unfunny scenes that just fall flat like the home invasion and the intervention climax. Than it can't decide how to take all it's subplots and make them work together. Vaughn with Connelly, the Dodge car project, and the actual "Dilemma" all feels seperate and never works well together. The actual affair too feels low stakes and bounces around between everyone and we go in circles. Maybe it would be worth it if it were actually funny but it's not. It coud've been a lot worse but as it is, it's a unfunny romcom that should be skipped. What a waste of talent in front and behind the camera. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review br r It took 20 minutes before we knew what this was about and that was the high point. Proof that a good cast and director can't make up for a terrible script. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review Monic Kenya M The story is slow. Totally would not call this a comedy. Good actors but bad script very boring Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review Bill H I had to decide tonight whether to wash my cat or watch The Dilemma. At the end of the evening my cat still stinks, but not as bad as this movie does! Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/12/25 Full Review Read all reviews
