I love dark comedies and am still immature enough to laugh at children being shot and old ladies getting hit by buses, but only found this movie so-so.

Exactly, Schwimmer just doesn't have the screen presence (whatever that is, I guess charisma) to carry this movie.

To an extent though, I thought he did OK sorta...  But one of the big things that bothered me though was Simon Pegg.... I love him, but I don't want to call his character unlikeable because I wasn't like some 60 year old woman watching soap-operas thinking "Ohh, he's so bad" or anything, his character just seemed sort of stupid to me and mildly annoying that it actually existed

QuoteTimmy's dad is ok in Monkey Dust, if a little suicidal.

Well, I'm not quote sure feeling bad for someone is precisely the same as sympathizing with them...

You might want to look up what "sympathy" means
