This movie was my most recent " I cannot sleep what's on HBO" find. I remember when it first came out and all the talk was of Jason Segal and his full nude scenes. And he did. But after you got over that the movie was good.
Playing Peter a composer dumped unceremoniously by his girlfriend Sarah Marshall ( Kristin Bell ) Segal is the star of the show. His everyman looks and natural likability carries the film. Kristin Bell is cute and attractive but her character is not likeable, although she does become more sympathetic when we hear of the rut Peter was in pre breakup.
Mila Kunis form That 70's Show is good as the hotel hostess who starts a relationship with Peter but for me the real surprise was the role of Aldous Snow played by Russell Brand. I had only known of Brand as the nasty comic host of MTV video awards and as Mrs Katy Perry of late but he was quite funny and likable in his role as Kristin Bell's new man.
Nothing unpredictable in this movie but at 1230 at night it was well worth a few chuckles.
