will not forget Forgetting Sarah Marshall so soon...

Rating: 9/10 (21 June 2008)

To tell the truth, I went to this movie with doubts. Some comments read this movie as not funny. But it is after all an Apatow production. What's more, I really like Jason Segel from "How I met Your Mother" and was curious as to his abilities as a writer. And with Paul Rudd, Russell Brand, Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell and others, this movie seemed to be potentially perfect.
I was not let down, actually I was surprised! This movie IS really good! It's funny in the right ways, its charming to the right point, and its simply pure fun!
I believe what I like in the formula of this line of comedies is the lack of pretentiousness, focusing on our hero who is an antithesis to a hero and using extraordinary events around a really ordinary person. The jokes are not mainly "hit on the head" jokes. I found more depth and intelligence to a lot of them.
In the end what really convinced me was that in our cinema hall people from all ages laughed together, whether they were in their 20th, 30th or even 60th.
I believe this movie is for everyone in the mood for 2 hours of cinema love and fun.
