Today is the first day... of the rest of his weekend.
艾德·赫尔姆斯扮演的Tim Lippe是个典型的“纯真”小镇青年,他从来没离开过他家乡的小城,他从来没住过酒店。所以,可想而知,当他作为保险代理人被总部召集到爱达荷州的Cedar Rapids大酒店,参加一年一度的保险业大会时,他的心情是多么激动。不过,兴奋劲儿还没过,几个讨厌鬼、也是大会的常驻代表(约翰·C·赖利、安·海切与Isiah Whitlock Jr. )就掺乎了进来。他们带着Tim折腾得天昏地暗,不断挑战他的底线,除了“开会”别的什么他们都干了个遍……
"Cedar Rapids," a 2011 comedy film produced by Ad Hominem Enterprises in the United States, offers a refreshing take on the classic fish-out-of-water narrative.

The chemistry among the cast members is palpable, making the audience root for their unconventional friendships and personal growth throughout the film. Beyond its humor, "Cedar Rapids" delves into themes of self-discovery and the importance of stepping out of one's comfort zone. Tim's journey is not just about surviving the chaos of the convention but also about confronting his own limitations and aspirations. The film poignantly illustrates how new experiences and unexpected friendships can lead to profound personal change. This underlying message resonates with viewers, offering a heartwarming reminder of the potential for growth and transformation in every individual.
