"Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy played all the roles in The Help. They're masters of disguise."
"Helen Mirren is off the rails, you don't hear a lot of it because she's got good PR."

Maybe they recognize that Ricky Gervais isn't funny. If he were, he would've done stand-up *before* he became famous. Ricky Gervais: stand-up:: Jim Carrey: painting.
