  1. Forgetting Sarah Marshall (film): Sometimes I like Rom-Coms@gooddream2751d

    I am not afraid to admit that I like a wide range of films including romantic comedies. As a matter of fact, if done correctly, i think it is one of my favorite genres. This one was excellent in my mind.

    I think most people have been dumped at one point or another and that is where this movie starts being good. It is relatable. The fact that Peter Breter (Jason Segel) has enough money to go on a long vacation in Hawaii in order to help ease the pain of his breakup is well, not so relatable but it is a movie so we can just go with it.

    While he is in Hawaii, he learns that his ex-girlfriend just happens to be there at the same time, with her rockstar boyfriend Aldous Snow. I can't imagine anything worse that could possibly happen.


    The story carries on in a humorous way and it only gets better once Aldous (Russel Brand) and Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell) are introduced to the story. I feel as though any story can be made better by the addition of who i consider to be the best-looking person in the world Mila Kunis, who playes Rachel, a receptionist at the hotel and consequently someone that Peter has taken an interest in.

    The stuff that follows is just so true in breakups. You don't want to be with one-another anymore but you are trying really hard to be "better off" than your ex. It makes us ask silly questions like "why do I care what my ex is up to?" and the answer is sometimes that we are all selfish a-holes and it takes years for us to be ok with them being with someone else or even being happy without us.

    While there isn't much action in this movie, it doesn't need it. It has a wide array of wonderful characters, one of which was so wonderful it ended up spawning its own hit movie (Aldous Snow: Get him to the Greek.)

    I have seen this movie more than once and would definitely watch it again. I would venture to say that it is one of my favorite romcoms of all time. Plus you know, Mila Kunis is in it and I'll watch pretty much anything she is in.

    8 / 10
