Jeremy of The Daily Rotation says, "It’s not every day that you see a full-length film about butter. Jim Field Smith‘s Butter is exactly that, a comedy about the cut-throat butter sculpting world and the nutcases that inhabit it. Jennifer Garner injects her usual brand of obsessive humor into the film, while other supporting actors try sprinkling a little bit of comedy over the film’s drier parts. Butter isn’t all that funny or even interesting enough to warrant a watch, making it an unstable film that tries balancing on the concept alone and nothing else."

There are several highly anticipated new releases that kickoff the month of December including the final adventure of The Dark Knight, the second season of Star Trek’s greatest show, and several Pixar classics are finally available in three dimensions. With regards to catalog releases you’ll find a couple terrifying double features (one intentional, one not), another season of the longest running animated series, and another Speilberg film cons its way onto Blu-ray.
Butter isn't just for spreading on toast anymore — it's also the title of a pretty weak independent comedy directed by Jim Field Smith. The film's characters are stock, and its narrative is both unfocused and disappointingly safe. For what's supposed to be 90 minutes of skewering the ridiculousness of small town America, Butter doesn't have much of an edge, and with a cast this talented, the film has no excuse to fall as short as it does.
