Wow. this is my first review, and I was inspired to write it because I felt like the amount of good reviews on here are not representative of the quality (or lack there of) of the film. I am really really surprised at the amount of good reviews on here. I suppose if you are a big fan of Russell Brands humor that would help. I am not. While I still thought forgetting Sarah Marshall was funny, Aldous Snow, ( Brand's character) was not my favorite part at all..so maybe I have should have known better. Regardless, while the movie opens up in a promising way, with an almost funny mock music video of Brand's character entitled African Child--the movie seems thrown together, unbelievable and unoriginal, (for example, the over the top mock music video of Brand's pop singer ex-lover has been done before exactly in "Music and Lyrics"), and it was overall far too long and just not funny to me, my friends, and apparently the entire theatre, judging from the awkward silence. While i'm all for goofy Apatow comedies and the like, I wouldn't want anyone to waste their time on this one. Unless you love Russell Brand. Then you'll probably like it.
