I Love You, Man

Pros: Plenty of comic moments, performances of Rudd, Segel, and supporting cast
Cons: Flawed logic detracts from film

"I Love You Man" takes a comic look at the bonds that men (and, to some extent, women) make with one another. Paul Rudd stars as Peter Klaven, a real estate agent looking to add celebrity properties to the list of sales successes he has had for his ...

Pros: Rudd and Segal are great, some funny moments
Cons: Too many funny moments shown in the trailers

I went to "I Love You, Man" with fairly high expectations.  I had seen a glowing review of the film on the CBS Sunday Morning show, and I like both Paul Rudd and Jason Segal.  However, as often happens, many of the comedic moments had already ...

Pros: funny, provocative, well-played
Cons: tied to a wafer-thin plot that feels too TV-esque

There are so many ways to talk about this film, though in the end, the discussion it raises is probably more interesting than the film itself.  Directed by John Hamburg (who wrote Zoolander, Along Came Polly, Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers) ...

Pros: the main trio, sweet and touching, funny
Cons: extremely crude at times

I go to see movies at the theater for a variety of reasons. One draw lately has been the presence of actors and actresses from favorite television shows as they branch out into films. Freaks and Geeks and The Office got me interested in ...

Pros: You will laugh.
Cons: You will walk away with the sense that this movie should have been even funnier.

I Love You, Man is the latest heavily advertised R-Rated comedy in a stream of relatively decent such movies.  If you've enjoyed films such as Knocked Up or Forgetting Sarah Marshall you're likely already intending to check this one out, and ...

Pros: Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, J.K. Simmons, lots of laughs
Cons: thin plot

Peter Klaven (Paul Rudd), our hero in the surprisingly charming bromance I Love You, Man, is that rare specimen of man who is sweet, loving, and attentive.  That's great for his fiancée Zooey (Rashida Jones), until she ...

Pros: Anwar Sadat, Jamie Pressly, the Hulk
Cons: Projective vomiting.

This was the third movie in my 4-movie marathon this past weekend. After the serious/grossness of Saturday, I was looking forward to some giggles. So once again, I went into this movie expecting a lot. Did it deliver? For some things yes, for others no. ...

Pros: Hilarious all the way through
Cons: It's predictable 

I was excited to see the duo of Paul Rudd and Jason Segel. I knew going into the movie that it would be a romance movie, and I had my doubts. But knowing the cast I knew this movie would provide a great time had by all. “I Love You, Man” is a ...

Pros: Cast, chemistry between Rudd and Segel
Cons: None to think of

One might be inclined to think that I Love You, Man is a Judd Apatow production, given that it stars Paul Rudd and Jason Segel who are veterans of the writer-producer's work. Surprisingly though, Apatow isn't connected to this film at all. But ...

Pros: Jason Segal, Paul Rudd, and Rashida Jones are all great; Rush fans will love it!
Cons: Goes on slightly too long; Jane Curtin as the mother is given nothing to do.

With all of the raunchy comedies coming out as of late, it's so hard to believe how many of them have actually worked. Only a few imitators (College, anyone?) have seem to do any wrong to this formula. By all accounts though, I Love You, ...

Pros: Easily understandable goal, easily spotted mistakes getting there.
Cons: Busy plot, crude language, disgusting pet.

Plodding real estate agent Peter Klaven (Paul Rudd) gets engaged to bright and happy Zooey (Rashida Jones) only to realize he has nobody to be best man at his wedding. He's done well with relationships in the past, but he'd never cultivated male ...

Pros: Funny and original.  A very honest look at relationships between males and their bonding rituals.
Cons: Could have been a little funnier. Should have been a little more raunchy.

This movie tries to be a broad and very funny comedy. The only problem is it tries too hard and doesn't always deliver.  If you are expecting Superbad, Knocked Up or a movie of that caliber in laughs and raunchiness, this movie does not come up ...

Pros: -No dull points
-Jason Segel puts forth a great performance
-Laughter for days!
Cons: -A little crude here and there
-Very similar feel as "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"

I went to the theatre to see this with my girlfriend, we got our monies worth. We are both fans of Jason Segel from "How I Met Your Mother" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" We went theatre to laugh, and did just that. It was very funny throughout and we ...
