Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
rickyrue22 Will go down as one of my fav comedies for sure. Watched it about 10 times over the last 10 years and it's still great
fcerezo-98950 Should had finished at 1:10:01. Then? Sublime. But ofcourse then it would had been absolutely unrealistic (that is to say, to what the Industry had couched us to expect) and so it continues beyond that sublime moment where I would had given the movie a highest (what is it; 10 *?) to be wasted into repeated over due drama get together go back home screw everything else. Look. Supporting actress is way better than Main actress. For me it would had been a really fresh twist of the usual suspects. After all stopped watching it at 1:30:28. Totally disappointed with the looser character Peter.
blende Top notch hilarious screenplay, relatable characters, layered story, and a gorgeous tropical backdrop. Once every 4-5 years Hollywood makes a comedy that is thouroughly enjoyable upon the first viewing and actually becomes more enjoyable with every viewing. Rather than giving an overview of the plot as I'm sure there are many other reviews for that, I'll discuss why I believe Forgetting Sarah Marshall deserves to be considered a classic Hollywood comedy. The first strength of FSM is in the character depth, complexity, and rawness. Jason Segel Portrays a deeply depressed and conflicted man who believes his recent break up (he was dumped) is the reason for his depression, but as the movie progresses, it becomes clear he was already unhappy in the relationship. As fate would have it the ex lovers end up at the same vacation resort and the story unfolds from there. The movie is FULL of top notch comedic character actors playing in supporting roles. Highlights include Bill Hader, Paul Rudd, and my personal favorite Jack McBrayer. Kristin Bell is solid and Mila Kunis is glowing in her role as the beautiful new potential romantic partner. The casting of Russell Brand as the aloof Brit Rocker is simply stellar. The Hawaiin location adds amazing flavor and culture to the backdrop of the film, bringing in some great locals to tie the scenery and story together. As the film progresses, every actor gets a chance to shine. There are a countless number of classic one liners in the film. A raw and hilarious beginning, tons of hilarious situations, and a satisfying ending make for a classic comedy worth watching again and again.
Skaterever5 What a waste of time. I feel cheated out of 111 minutes of my life and i want it back. Definitely not funny and not even a good movie in any other respect. Russell Brand was mildly interesting but it wasn't enough. I can't understand how it could get a 7.3 rating on IMDb except that their must be lot of high people watching and then reviewing it. Find something else to watch and don't trust the inflated ratings on IMDb. And this minimum review length is lame. How long do you need to read that i thought this movie sucks monkey butts? How many ways does it need to be said? This movie gives Jason Segal a really bad name since he is the guy that wrote it (for now he should just stick to acting).
