Forgetting Sarah Marshall
First off I must confess I watched this movie solely because of Kristen Bell(She of Veronica Mars fame since the show is in the top 3 of my all-time best shows) who plays Sarah Marshall, who's character is leading lady in a CSI type show on telly. The only other things I knew about it was the praised full frontal dump scene that starts the movie off. Before I start I must say that I'm yet to discover why it's funny. I thought it was just sad, I felt so bad for him.
The guy being dumped is of course Peter (Jason Segel from HIMYM, another show I watch occasionally) who, after being dumped while showing his willy, gets depressed and ultimately travels to Hawaii on a vacation to meet Rachel (the always supercute Mila Kunis) and to discover that her ex Sarah (the great Ms Bell) is holidaying on the same island with her new beau rock star (played by UK import Russell Brand, he who used to host BB uk talk show). Of course all sorts of things ensue and it is pretty funny I must confess. In that R rated Judd Apatow kinda way that he does so well. He has his usual sidekicks all there like Paul Rudd and Jonah HIll who play well with the young cast and all and all it is an entertaining movie. At times it really makes you grinch and at times laugh out loud. Definitely worth the watch for all R rated comedy fans.
