Writer-Director Jeff Daniels comes up with about forty-five minutes of inspired silliness, but, eventually, Super Sucker winds up being a one-joke film, though, admittedly, that joke is often funnier than it should be.

If you think you've seen every possibility for a sex comedy, then you haven't seen Super Sucker -- and thank your lucky stars for that.

Has a mad energy and proud idiocy that's impossible to deny.

Top CriticA terrible movie.

a lively tale about competition, commerce, community values and, oh yeah, gross misuse of vacuum cleaner attachments.

Daniels turns to hackneyed stereotypes and easy plot lines, choosing to see the Midwest as a place where door-to-door salesmen rule the streets and bored housewives all lead unfulfilling cookie-cutter lives.

Top CriticIt’d be nice to report that “Super Sucker” is an out-and-out triumph, instead of just being an okay to pretty good comedy.
