Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Now I've been a fan of the sitcom "How i met your mother" for years and had a certain idea of what to expect from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The main character in the movie isn't very different from Marshall in himym, which may have something to do with the fact that Jason Segel playing Marshall wrote the script for Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I've never been a fan of teenage comedies and knowing that this was an Apatow production did make me somewhat sceptical. I once started watching Superbad which is another acclaimed Apatow production, but ended up turning it off half way through cause I found it horribly embarresing. Knocked up wasn't that great either, although it did receive some good critics. I was very positively surprised by Forgetting Sarah Marshall as the comedy and story is much more "grown up" than in other Apatow productions. The main character gets dumped while naked (which actually did happen to the writer Jason Segel in real life) and this is just one of many sad but sympathetic situations we get to see of Peter. Who hasn't been watching tv in pj's crying over a bowl of ice cream? It's time the heartbroken boy gets to come out of his shell. The movie has alot of funny lines which makes for an entertaining movie experience. A nice movie if you need a good laugh. Trailer here
