Listen you little weirdo ...

Brother Rice alum John C. Reilly has done so much goofy (think "Stepbrothers" and "Talladega Nights") you might forget he's not a one-note Johnny. Proof of that looks to be coming in the new film "Cyrus."

Reilly plays John, whose ex-wife is about to remarry. But he meets the woman of his dreams (Marissa Tomei) ... and her son, Cyrus, played by the wonderfully deadpan Jonah Hill. And Cyrus is a little weirdo.

Mekado Murphy, in the New York Times Art Beat column, says "Cyrus takes an insightful, funny and sometimes heartbreaking look at love and family in contemporary Los Angeles."

Check out the trailer.
