"Grilled" depicts vicissitudes of two desperate door-to-door meat salesman who are attempting to sell the huge amount of beef at all costs. This farce idea of the film is maybe improbable, but quite original and triggers off some laughs. However, the film is not very intense and uses mostly situational humor. The real stress is put on the leading actors who managed quite well. In particular, Kevin James is hilarious and Juliette Lewis in a supporting role as a loony suicide is as always great. Nevertheless, I think that screenwriters really didn't properly make use of an enormous potential flowing from this project. Thus, the script seems half-baked. This black comedy should be funnier and contain more types of humor. All in all, "Grilled' is an average flick with not enough laughable scenes and good acting

Maurice and Dave sell high-end cuts of meat, but they've hit a patch of no sales, and they're facing being fired.

Maurice needs money to enrol in his final semester of acupuncture school, and Dave needs money for his daughter's birthday.

Their final client, a beautiful woman opens the door, and they are about to seal the deal, but a desperate call from a suicidal friend interrupts her signing the contract.

Still hoping to close the sale, Maurice and Dave offer to drive her to the friend's house, and there, troubles multiply.

Facing guns, hit men, and women's secrets, a sale is the farthest thing from their minds......

A vehicle for two of the biggest names in American TV comedy at the time, it seems like it was a huge Mis-step having them star in a more adult orientated comedy, rather than a cutesy throwaway family comedy that would have at least been successful.

But they wanted to try something different, and while it works to some extent, you can see why the film is a complete mess.

There's no coherency to the plot or narrative, and we have James falling over all the time (because hey! Fat people are funny), and Romano trying to be the charming one, but he comes across as a complete creep.

Reynolds, Coates, and Lewis make up the great support, but all in all its a watchable mess.

Very undercooked.
