With a twist of fate Tim Leppe is
selected to represent his Insurance Company in an annual convention. With
butterflies all over his stomach he just takes the motivation to his hands and
goes there to win the Two Diamonds award to his company. But soon he realizes
that the convention is a whole different ball game and few of convention
veterans guiding him through the whole process. He loses a few personnel values
in exchange of new ones.
Cedar Rapids is a movie filled
with fun and moments of its own seriousness. Lippe’s character is a very joyful
and optimistic one, which lightens up the whole plot. He is honest and
trustworthy. This at times puts him in real awkward positions and at times
makes him the hero.
The plot is quite unique. Don’t think
I have seeing a movie about insurance salesman before. Though it sounds a bit
unreal to pull off, the flow does it effortlessly. Maybe the light yet cheerful
acting by most of them involved makes you just laugh the whole ride till the
end.
I had a good time watching Cedar
Rapids. One thing many of you will expect from a movie. Simple as that!
