Is that too much to ask. Another crude movie comes out of Hollywood. Not only was it completely tasteless, but the story was poorly written and the film was poorly executed along with terrible acting and even worse sound/music quality. Why are we allowing our brains to be fed this diet of junk. Maybe if we all stop watching such crass movies, the writers will be forced to come up with something wholesome and meaningful as well as entertaining.

Though parts of it are a little raunchy and over the top, this is a hilarious movie and a must-have for any comedy collection.

Because, to me, funny sex conversations are like watching a guy get hit in the balls. Plus, the characters were extremely shallow and often would have these mystifying changes of personality in order to create some forced scene the director just HAD to have in the movie; most of which revolved around sex. Maybe I saw a different "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". In all honesty, I really don't care all that much about how your ex your broke your heart and I certainly don't want to watch an hour and a half of you crying and drunkenly stumbling around Hawaii feeling sorry for yourself.

Is that supposed to be the funny part. This was a terrible movie. MAYBE funny once and then it just gets boring to watch. Like did we just forget to hire a screen writer. is really inexcusable.

If you want a light, romantic comedy, forget Sarah Marshall and try something else. But the fact that you REMAINED whiny and weepy all they way up until the last. I really don't get how some people rated this movie so highly. Along a similar segue, the plot lines were thin at best. Like really, truly awful.

I feel for you, Peter. So save your money. I really do. Basically it's about this whiny guy named Peter who is upset that his TV actress, Sarah, broke up with him to be with some tree hugging singer. This is supposed to be a ROMANTIC comedy. 7 minutes of the movie. Awww.

interest sort of thrown into the movie during the last half hour. oh I dunno. There were no redeeming factors. I did not even smile much less laugh a single time during this movie. Not wallowing self pity with a new love (lust). As in the movie should actually revolve around a ROMANCE. Oh wait.

Enjoy. I laughed a lot, which means this was very funny to me. As Rachel, she well handles the levels of sticking up for herself, romantic lead & funny sidekick to Peter. Jason Segel from "Knocked Up" plays Peter Bretter whose girlfriend breaks up with him. Kristen Bell who is currently on TV's "Heroes" & was "Veronica Mars" in that series does an incredible acting job. Mila Kunis from TV's "That 70s Show" & recently in "Max Payne" is both beautiful, touching & funny. He was also in Knocked Up (Unrated Widescreen Edition) as well as Anchorman - The Legend Of Ron Burgundy (Unrated Widescreen Edition) & currently in the hilarious "Role Models." Jonah Hill who was in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" & "Knocked Up," shows up as a waiter with an agenda. His girlfriend is Sarah Marshall who is running on a crime scene TV show.

The Dracula musical finale was hilariously unexpected. She's also beautiful, but not overly funny. Bill Hader from TV's "Saturday Night Live" & "Superbad" plays Peter's brother Brian. Nicholas Stoller who wrote "Fun With Dick & Jane" helms the picture for his first film & keeps the laughs and pacing brisk.

This is a great comic film. The fine delicacy of emotion that comes across her face, the sorrowful regret as she breaks up with Peter, and the desire to come back to him are communicated with the depth one might achieve while standing on the first step walking down into the shallow end of the pool. Segel wrote the screenplay & bares all in the beginning of the film, which was startling. But he plays it in a very matter-of-fact way, seemingly comfortable even though not the most toned of men.

Paul Rudd turns in an excellent comic performance as the air-headed surfing instructor. Russell Brand as the narcissistic rock star Aldous who is Sarah's new boyfriend preens and prances in hilarious fashion. Brian's wife Liz is played by "Saturday Night Live" alumni Liz Cackowski.

Segel wrote and stars as an underacheiving every man who, after getting dumped by his celebrity girlriend (Kristen Bell) takes a vacation to Hawaii to put her behind him. But let's not get too serious here.this is a comedy after all. In lesser hands, this could have devolved into pure Hollywood cliche: Segel's character spends the entire movie trying to win Sarah back all the while oblivious to the fact that Rachel is the right woman for him. Thankfully, this movie is a great deal smarter and more emotionally complex than that. Jason Segel proves that he is the latest Judd Apatow protege to deliver the comic goods in this raunchy, sweet and totally entertaining comedy about healing broken hearts. Segel's writing allows for the comedy to flow from the characters' personalities which can lead to some enormous belly laughs.

The movie ultimately works it's way towards a satisfying ending, but getting there is great fun. . Peter's dilemma of whether or not to pursue his relationship with Rachel or fall back into his old one with Sarah feels real and messy, with serious consequences. I can't wait to find out. There is also a ton of raunchy humor here as well, but it's evened out by the underlying tenderness that flows throughout the film.

The only question that lingers after the movie ends.who will be the next Apatow player to wow us with a comedy gem. Peter and Rachel begin, albeit hesitantly, a relationship but Sarah eventually realizes she still cares for her ex and attempts to win him back. The buds of a new romance develop quickly when he meets Rachel (Mila Kunis) who works the front desk at the resort he stays at. But as fate would have it, Sarah and her new boyfriend (Russell Brand) are staying there as well. Brand manages to raise the comic energy of every scene he's in. The supporting cast is terrific including Paul Rudd in another hilarious turn, the fat guy from Superbad who makes the most out of his limited screen time, and most notably Russell Brand as Sarah's new boyfriend. The jokes never feel rushed or out of characther.
