The second one does not describe what the two characters are like. The second one is definately the worst poster of all.

The teaser is good on its own. The follow-up is OK on its own, but works better if you've seen the teaser.

I quite like the first poster. It's funny to me and we all know it's Carrell so I actually like the fact that the marketing department took a chance. It also tells us a little something about the nature of the movie (that Carrell's character is a kind of bumbling). The second one however.... bleh. I disagree and agree.

Personally, I'm not really impressed with the poster. Hopefully, the movie will be better. LOL
