• And a protracted discussion of who vs . whom between Quimp and another agent ( Denis Leary ) seems to drag on eternally.
• Although Weaver's over-the-top performance grates, McGrath's buttoned-down blandness is perfect for the clueless Quimp.

• The story follows the unlikely ascent within the CIA of Allen Quimp ( McGrath ), the nerdiest, dippiest, most underachieving early-1960s square ever to don a madras jacket and grumble about the misuse of the English language.
• For instance, a witty exchange between Quimp and a fellow CIA agent ( Denis Leary ), which takes place during a kids'rather pathetic softball game, is shot so that the game is barely visible and the actors are distractingly cut off at the knees.
• Douglas McGrath co-writes, co-directs and stars in this absurdist tale about Allen Quimp, a Greenwich, Conn ., high school English and driver's-ed teacher who bumbles his way into the CIA and its plot to overthrow Fidel Castro ( well-played by a robust Anthony LaPaglia ).
