If Kevin Spacey had a gangly nerd cousin who did an impersonation of Jack Lemmon at his most hyper-fastidious, he might come off something like Douglas McGrath, the cowriter, codirector, and star of Company Man. McGrath's Allen Quimp is a prissy, harmless geek -- a grammar teacher who somehow becomes a CIA operative, then ends up in Cuba on the eve of the Castro revolution. If you've always longed to see a Cold War satire done in the hit-'em-over-the-head frantic-camp mode of Love, American Style, then Company Man is the movie for you. D+
