As usual, I'm a little behind the times on seeing the movie. Deal with it.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall was definitely worth it. Funny throughout, great characters, and pretty good storyline.
Judd Apatow scores again. Superbad, Knocked Up, Talladega Nights, 40 Year Old Virgin, Anchorman...the list goes on and on. All his comedies focus on a loser/clueless character that the audience can identify with. While it's a great movie, he's chosen a relatively simple concept and stuck with it (and he does it well). It'd be interesting if he branched out in future movies, maybe tackle a more serious topic, or something.
Jason Segel played the part of the dumped relationship-mourning loser very well. His songs were great. Could have done without seeing his twig and giggleberries though.
Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell did well in their roles, and they're both damn hot. Especially Mila Kunis.
My favorite character was Paul Rudd, even though he only had a couple scenes. He played the stoned Hawaiian-implant surfer dude to perfection. Hilarious.
Not a whole lot of character development, but I guess that wasn't the point of the movie. And the male nudity was totally unnecessary. There's really not too much to say...it was funny, that's about it.
