Get Him to the Greek

I knew this film would be good, but the direction it takes us exceeds expectations. Judd Apatow knows how to deliver a great film. Mostly known for shock humor or extreme perversion, he has always pushed the envelope. That is what I was waiting for, not really what we got. We got a really deep movie about two different guys who help each other discover what's important. What I didn't realize until watching was the spin off aspect. This character is based on Jason Segals 2008 hit "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". Russell Brand plays Aldous Snow for the second time. A drug addled Rock N Rolla who cares for no one, but himself. Jonah Hill plays Aaron Green, a record company grunt, who comes up with a plan to re energize his company. An anniversary concert performed by Aldous Snow. Aldous walked away from the industry when he released an album that was regarded as one of the worst of all time. Aaron's boss played by Sean Combs, aka Puff Daddy, aka P. Diddy, aka Puffy, aka Diddy, plays Sergio and he really carries the movie. He is the funniest part of the entire film. That's not knocking the comedy, it's actually commending Combs. For those of you who really wanna like Combs again since losing the love after all his silly name changes, this movie will do that for you. It is not a Laugh out loud film, nor a fall out of your seat. It so much more. I did LMAO a few times, and it is consistently funny, but it turns dark drama several times throughout. It is a must see. It does deserve it's R rating for the language and nudity, drug and alcohol use, and one hilarious fight scene involving all the main players along with seasoned actor, Colm Meaney, who plays Snow's father. The cameo's are so abundant, it's hard to decide which one is the best.... maybe Lars. Yes, that Lars. This movie also contained the most puking scenes I have ever seen, so if you cannot handle seeing other people blow chunks (I'm looking at you A.P.) this happens at least 6 different times. It's a wild party that is quite enjoyable, so I hope you enjoy.
