An Appatow gem.

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2009)

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was the last Appatow film I saw. I had wanted to see it for months and then I bought it on Black Friday. It wasn't a disappointment. Jason Segel from the awful show How I Met your mother stars as Peter, a musician for a show called crime scene. He has just broken up with an actress named Sarah Marshall(Kristen Bell). THey were together for five years. Peter is heartbroken, so he travels down to Hiwaii. While there, he meets a few people. He meets Rachael(The sexy Mila Kunis), an office clerk, he meets a recently married couple, he meets a cool but stupid surfing instructor named Kunu(Paul Rudd) and he meets Aldous Snow(brilliantly played by the obnoxious Russel Brand). Aldous is dating Sarah. What sucks though is that they are all staying at the hotel. At first, Peter is jealous of Sarah and then Sarah becomes jealous of Peter and there is a lot of jealousy floating around. Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a very funny film. It's funny for many reasons. I've never seen Jason Segel in much or in a huge role, but it's funny to watch him cry the entire film. Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a genius comedy.
