Caught I Love You, Man last night (maybe a little late in the game) and trust me when I say the funniest parts were in the trailer. The best part however was not in the trailer and came in the form of Rush music featured and finally, a concert from The Band themselves. Good gracious. I almost pissed myself. (Love you, Neil!)
The movie however, lacked the dirty finesse of Apatow and instead, veered into slapstick land of farts, spew and poo. Jason Segel was not Russell Brand, rather, a sad verbal reminder of an Apatow film. Paul Rudd (God bless him, I’ve loved him since Clueless) completely overacted and the role written for was loose and overly white trying to be black. I’m not sure who even thinks that’s funny.
I’ll wait for Funny People.
