Yikes! Turning the tables on political correctness, affirmative action, and
especially, the feminist movement, never seemed so fun on film! In the Company
of Men teaches you that everything you know is wrong and slaps you in the face
for enjoying it. This phenomenal gem is, on the surface, a simple tale about
two jilted male co-workers, who, on a six-week long business trip, decide to
take revenge on all the females of the species by jointly finding a "corn-fed"
wallflower, making feel like she's a beauty queen, then dumping her like a sack
of bricks. Hard. Chad (Aaron Eckhart) is the smooth one. Howard (Matt
Malloy) is a lovable Winnie the Pooh type. Together, they're devastating...
until "the game" ends up having unpredictable effects on the both of them, as
well as Christine (Stacy Edwards), their deaf victim. Unpredictable and wholly
unique, In the Company of Men is a powerful moviegoing experience. Take my
advice, and watch it with someone you love.
Royale, with cheese.
