We went to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall last night and I’m pretty satisfied with our choice 
We weren’t sure what to go see, so we shortlisted a few movies, went to rottentomatoes.com and Forgetting Sarah Marshall was rated pretty highly by a pretty nit-picky crowd. Since we only got around to seeing it now, the theatre was half full/empty (depending on how you look at things) which meant that the burst out laughing scenes didn’t get the uproarious laughter they should have.
If male nudity makes you laugh in a comedy, then you’ll bust a gut in this one. I’m talking about the Will Ferrel style male nudity. There’s a couple of absolutely hilarious full frontal scenes. Aside from that though, the story’s pretty good, though predictable as usual. The characters are fun though and generally well done. I found Bill Hader to be a bit much, but Jason Segel, Mila Kunis and Paul Rudd were pretty good throughout. The one that really impressed me though was Russel Brand. Man that guy had me in stitches with the character he was playing.
All in all, it was a fun movie and if you’re curious as to how your date would react to male full frontal nudity, here’s a less awkward way of finding out.

Not so sure if I want to see that movie yet…maybe. I always go on rotten tomatoes before I see, buy, or rent a movie!

Thanks for the review, I was looking for a date movie and it seems now I’ve found it
Even though I’m not a big fan of male nudity, I think I can withstand the pain

I’ve heard that the acting is awsome for this show- I’ll have to take a look

When I heard that Russell Brand was going to try his hand at acting (he’s a pretty well known comedian and ladies man here in the UK), I thought he would be terrible.
Actually, though, he’s very good and the movie as a whole isn’t bad, either. Worth a couple of hours of your time anyway.

I guess ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ was definitely overshadowed by ‘Iron Man’ – but sarah marshall’s definitely worth the watch. It’s something unique; I guess most people were expecting the same crude comedy approach. Not a bad movie though… worth the watch
