Good but far from great

Rating: 6/10 (4 June 2010)

I really loved Forgetting Sarah Marshall I thought all the jokes in that movie worked and the movie had a great pacing to it. Although I liked this movie it felt to me it had too much dead air parts that just fell short and weren't as funny as they could have been. I liked the ties made within the movie to Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and thought the parts in London were funny and a few parts in Las Vegas and scenes here and there were funny. But a lot of the jokes felt forced and didn't seem as funny. Overall I would saw one should wait for this to get to DVD and then rent or buy it, because while this is a decent movie, it isn't all its predecessor was, that movie was funny throughout and never had a dull moment where one is checking their watch. This movie some is hilariously funny but there is too much material that falls flat in between those.
