Fantastic Acting! Some of the funniest dialog I've seen.

Rating: 7/10 (19 March 2012)

If there is anything to be said about this film, it is that the acting is fantastic. The story is good yet almost typical from what I would expect, but the acting and script is where the film really stands out from many other movies. The dialog between characters is absolutely hilarious at times, and about exactly what I was hoping for. One character that may get overlooked is Adam's mother. She is not in many scenes, but when she is, the actress plays her character spot on. I would describe her as an absolute nervous wreck, at times, and others as a typical worried mother. She did a fantastic job of making even me feel awkward for Adam at times. I don't know that overall this film will be very memorable as a whole, but I think there are certain scenes that will be. In particular the scene where Kyle, Seth Rogen's character, is helping Adam shave his head. This scene is spot on with how men are and act with one another and the scene is just simply a classic example of great acting. Also many scenes with Adam's therapist are quite memorable. Again, I wouldn't say 50/50 as a whole will be remembered as a classic or a top film years down the road, but I think certain scenes, lines, or dialog will be.
