For me this movie was a bit of a letdown.  I don’t now how you can have all that comedic talent under one roof and not have a really funny movie.  I think part of the problem is that giving the character’s odd-but-not-funny personas it limited the kind of dialog that could be had.  At one point Garfalo had a really sarcastic and funny line and it stuck out because there should have been a lot more of them in the movie.
