An original romantic comedy, oxymoron right? For once that's actually a plausibly statement when it comes to the movie, Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I realize calling it a romantic comedy is a stretch but really thats only because its actually funny
Jason Segal is our protagonist. When his movie star girlfriend (Kristen Bell) breaks up with him. Not handling it well, Segal decides to go to Hawaii to get away from everything. There he meets Mila Kunis who is working at the hotel. When Segal arrives he discovers his ex has also decided to come there with her new boyfriend, rocker Russell Brand. I won't spoil anything, but from there is where this movie really throws surprises at you. Cast:
Segal, who also wrote this movie, is hilarious, and never gets sappy and barely a joke misses.
Kristen Bell as Sarah Marshall plays a great role because the movie actually shows that she had reasons for what she did, and is a reasonably multi-sided character. Mila Kunis is the true star of this film, being truly hilarious, and of course, really damn hot. Her role is unique how it is portrayed, in that she isn't just the perfect girl Segal goes after. She actually has her own issues and personality. A big part of the humor comes from the supporting cast. Great bit roles by Bill Hader, Jonah Hill, Paul Rudd, and Jack MacBryor ("30 rock guy") add some comedic depth.
Russel Brand does a good job playing his character. Another role that is more than one sided. Even if you aren't a fan of Brand, he actually doesn't get overly annoying.
Now I must warn you this movies comedy, is alot about sex, literally. The humor isnt too crass and is still very funny but... don't watch it with your mom. Especially considering a moment of male full frontal, (I know it sounds bad but it's done perfectly so its hilarious (I didn't think it was possible either))
This movie is something special, it's a romantic comedy aimed at guys. It ignores the usually sappy and boring moments to keep the movie constantly running with funny jokes and new character developments. In general, this movie is a definite watch, through all the dirty jokes you actually see true character feelings. I'd give this movie, an 9/10, memorable, funny, and brilliant.
