Ed Helms is Ugly
I don't like looking at him, especially with a goatee. They should have have cast Jude Law. He's as tall as Jason Segal and he looks just like Susan Sarandon.

Except Jude Law is British, and if he were to do an American accent, it would probably be sketchy. I like Ed Helms, but basing his ability to act on his looks is very judgemental. I couldn't fault the casting here.

Ed Helms also doesn't have the acting chops he couldn't contend with the on screen presence of Segal. He is only good when he's the but of jokes like in Hangover and old Office episodes. No matter how sketch his accent might have been Jude Law would have made the movie work (pretty much anyone besides Helms would have worked better).

What's with the raging boner to have Jude in this movie?? Jude Law would have been a terrible pick. He doesn't fit into this movie in the slightest.
shareAre you telling me you don't have a raging boner for Jude Law? I'm starting to question your sexuality. Stop parading around as a gay man, if you're not a gay man. What are you a chick? Ugh.
Jude Law would have owned this movie. Anyone would have been better than Ed Helms.

Have to agree mostly with Helms being a bad cast job.
They took that standard maneuver of adding a goatee to a guy normally without facial hair, in order to show that he's not nice. Like in old cartoons, Westerns, or suspect "indie" films. They altered his look in a cheap way to match his persona. Not good enough.
His acting range is limited. I'm sure he could do an angry, realistic character. Just not this type.
