Funny People

So, last night I went with a group of people I work with to go see Funny People. Here are my thoughts

  • The movie dragged...a lot. It was funny in some parts but since it dragged some parts lost their "spunk"
  • There was a lot of depression and sad themes in the movie which aren't what a lot of the audience people have in mind when they go see a movie called "Funny People"
  • The language...it's crazy how much stuff is in there. But, in true comedic form, it's hilarious and if you know most comedians the content of their sketches will be what it normally is
  • Did I mention it dragged? You think you're close to the end and then it keeps going and going....the final scene almost makes you think that it's about to start back up and you're like, "NO!!!"
Overall grade on a scale of 10: 8

Now, I would love to give any Adam Sandler flick a 10 or higher, but I just can't for this movie! It was really funny and I laughed at a lot of the parts in the movie but other parts made me go "END THIS MOVIE!!" So, I would reccomend seeing it if you love Adam Sandler and also like Seth Rogen (who, btw, absolutely made up for Knocked Up with this movie)

Funny story though, walking up to go buy my ticket I was carded at the front door by the lady. Apparently I don't look old enough to get into a rated R movie...aka: I don't look like I'm even 17
