Forgetting Sarah Marshall

[Cactus Drags]

No. Never.

I never realized how hot Kristen Bell was until this movie.

Has she got a wonky eye? In some pictures it looks fine, in others I can see nothing but her left eye staring off in a completely different direction to the right. It's distracting.

Russell Brand was class. I had no idea who he was until this. He had some of the best lines I've heard in a while and his character was great.

[Big Red Fury]

I thought this movie was better than Superbad. I literally laughed throughout the entire movie. Almost pissed myself when he played the Muppet Show theme song.

[DMN in the House]

Movie was funny. Not as good as Accepted of The 40 Year Old Virgin, but pretty funny.

[Pesci]

Brilliant. Far exceeded my expectations, and I'll be damned if I'd be able to choose between Mila and Kristen if they were offered to me on a platter. They're both so hot. That scene in the water, where Mila kisses the main guy... mmm

[Lord Nibbler]

Russell Brand was class. I had no idea who he was until this. He had some of the best lines I've heard in a while and his character was great.

Wasn't really a "character", per se.

Judging by the clip on Jonathan Ross, there's a fair bit of adlibbing. Which is good, because I imagine Russ is more comfortable doing that than going off a script.

I was thinking alot was improv, but like I said, I had no idea who the guy was until this movie. I took a look at him now though, he suits that type of performance quite well.

This movie was LOADS better than I thought it was going to be. I'm glad I went to see it.

[Dan]

Very funny film.

Brand was very funny.

Kunis was very hot.

[YI]

MEGA BUMP~!

Saw this last night...Jesus Tittyfucking Christ! Have I done a complete 180 on Mila Kunis! I'd always rated her a bit 'nerdy overrated'...but...FUUUUUUCK!!!!

The film itself was really quite good. Russell Brand was amazing, the exchange in bed with Kristen Bell was absolutely fabulous (the shitty acting/show cancelled line, and the "Last week I fucked the housekeeper" to end it, marvellous). Brand and Kunis's hotness made it. The side characters were really quite good for the odd jokes too, with maybe the exception of Jonah Hill, but the payoff joke/Brand response was quite good, so made up for that.

Good film. Enjoyed it.

I will say though, out of the 'current crop' of American comedy films (40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, Accepted etc.) "Waiting..." is still head and shoulders the best (of that 'style' nothing touches the awesome'ness of "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" recently).

Am I the only one who thought it was really, really naff?

It didn't make me laugh out loud much, with the exception of the bed conversation and the line about him being like Ghandi, but better, because he likes puppets. But Brand was fabulous with his little lines and quips (this coming from someone who's very undecided on Brand, sometimes I think he's great, other times I think he's terrible). All in all it was totally inoffensive and a fun little flick that kills a couple of hours. Not something I'm going to run off and want to watch again in the near future, but still a good film.

I liked it. Pretty fun movie. Brand was alright. Hill was meh. The main character (???) was pretty good and Mila was good too.

Yes, you were.

Sidebar: I very nearly got broken up with in a style identical to Segal's. Well, not by my celebrity girlfriend - but in a towel. Thankfully, she stubbornly insisted I put on clothes and then dumped me

Watched this again a couple of months ago and loved it again. To be fair I found it hilarious at the cinema because I was with mates and everything's funnier then. Upon the second viewing it wasn't hilarious but still funny and just a great film. I don't think they'll ever make a film with two fitter leading actresses either.

[I Don't Mind]

This has reminded me how much I need to buy this movie. Brand was amazing and I still convince myself on a daily basis that I really did see Mila's true tits in that movie.

Pffft, Maria agrees with me. It wasn't that it was a terrible film, Brand was good for what he was (that being himself), the story was alright and there were a few funny moments, but overall it was just completely passé, it was a bit too long and as a follow up to likes of Knocked Up, Superbad and 40 Year Old Virgin, it just didn't sit well with me. It was okay, but for me it wasn't worth the price of admission, especially when Ironman was showing at the same time.

You're lying to yourself.
