Steve Carell and Paul Rudd are the perfect comedy team for this farce. Paul Rudd is a revelation since he is capable of portraying the straight man or the wisecracking sophisticate.He is the sort of clean-cut actor who is predestined to appear clad in a suit in screwball comedies(much in the same fashion as the late Cary Grant.) The scenes of the fabulously funny and sexy Lucy Punch (as Rudd's stalker "girlfriend")with the geeky Carell were a high-point for me. I didn't regard the extraordinary individuals at the corporate dinner party as victims,rather they each were interesting individuals and appeared in stark contast to the pasty faced,sycophantic company zombies.And Steve Carell's mouse

Best part of the movie is definitely the opening/title sequence. I was losing it in the theater through the entire opening credits, it's freaking hilarious. That alone was worth the price of admission. The rest of the movie is pretty good too.
