When Ronny catches the wife of his best friend and business partner cheating, he struggles with finding a way to tell his friend while they struggle to focus on an important business venture.
Almost everything about The Dilemma is pretty straightforward, two couples that are best friends dealing with stress and generally humorous circumstances. Nothing particularly exceptional or unfortunate about this film, but there are a couple things I want to point out.
First, the characters themselves--particularly Ronny (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Kevin James)--come off as very real. They seem to have just the perfect ratio of flaws-to-charm that makes them relateable without being tragic characters in and of themselves. Secondly, perhaps the best parts of the movie are the beginning and the end where we are watching these characters try to work out their business deal with Chrysler. Whereas the actual meat of the film dealing with the infidelity seems to drag and is a rollercoaster of laughter and blah, the relatively unimportant scenes dealing with the sidestory of this business deal are incredibly well done and almost makes for a better story.
