Jack Harris (Luke Wilson) is a legitimate Texas businessman who wanders off the straight-and-narrow path when he meets Wayne Beering (Giovanni Ribisi) and Buck Dolby (Gabriel Macht), a slimy pair of Internet porn profiteers. Jack's association with the men leads to his involvement with a host of other lowlifes, and though he tries to convince himself that he is staying clean in a dirty business, his disintegrating family situation proves otherwise.

Critics Consensus

Middle Men benefits from a solid cast, particularly Luke Wilson, but its muddled script lets them down.

B-
Is Jack, who is patterned on a real-life character, sociopathic or just plain clueless? Gallo doesn't seem to care. He cares about parading before us lowlifes living the high life. Go to Full Review

Pretty much proffers everything you can want in a film based on the upstart company that brought porn to a computer screen near you. Go to Full Review

If you're not turned off by a standard-issue subplot about the Valley of temptation, then click ENTER to watch some hot and witty business thriller action. Go to Full Review
Lindy West The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Jan 11, 2018
But the glib, gimmicky narration (i.e., the aforementioned "a better way for guys to jack off"-yawn), delivered in Wilson's vegetative monotone, leaves the film lumpy and uneven and often dull. Go to Full Review
Jason Best Movie Talk Jul 25, 2011
Inspired by the reputed experiences of the film's producer, Middle Men casts its protagonist in a suspiciously flattering light... Fortunately Wilson brings enough dark and disreputable shades to the character for the film to work. Go to Full Review

Poe S Jul 28, 2017 A very nice interesting film. only climax is bit of let down.
Abraham P May 31, 2017 Clunky script, plot all over the place, jumping from decade to decade. The actors are doing their best with a pretty poor lot. See more
