FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL (2008)

See Your Review

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is the story of Peter, a struggling musician desperately in

Love with Sarah Marshall the star of a top sexy crime investigation show. Everything is

Going well until Sarah dumps him in an attempt to forget her, he goes on holiday,

Only to find her there with her new boyfriend played by Russell Brand. There is a

Continual change in their relationship as things become overly complicated and Peter

Even find a new love. This film is brought to you by the makers of Knocked Up and

40 Year Old Virgin.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall sees another big screen appearance for Russell Brand.

He plays a surprisingly nice rock star who seems to want to have sex with everything.

There are some hilarious comments from this comedian. Russell Brand's character is

The supposed to depict your typical British rock star and while it may not be accurate

It is funny. The main thing is review in his performance is, is he is capable of playing

Any other roles and I think this is doubtable. However, in Forgetting Sarah Marshall

He is thoroughly convincing and I really enjoyed his performance. There are

Priceless lines which I am sure people will be quoting for the rest of the year.

Moreover, there is another cameo from Jonah Hill the star of Superbad and he also

Made an appearance in Knocked Up, 40 Year Old Virgin and Click. In Forgetting

Sarah Marshall he has some funny lines and makes the best of what he has

Contributing to the film. There are other funny appearances from Paul Rudd and

Huge natives. I can not think of one member of the cast that did not make me laugh.

This is a romantic comedy focuses more on comedy than romance. This film is similar

To Knocked Up as you would expect. The humour is tasteful and times but utterly

Shocking and crude at other times. However, it fits the film well and does not seem

Out of place. There were at least two or three times when the full cinema were

Laughing hilariously. A few moments did bring gasps and you do not want to a man

Naked 4 or 5 times then do not go and see this film. In Forgetting Sarah Marshall

There is plenty of romance as the lead toils between his original love Sarah Marshall

And his new love. There is little of slushy romance which you normally find in boring

Romantic comedies.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is likely to offend some people. There is plenty of

Swearing, nudity and sex references galore. I would say this film is more suited to a

Teenage demographic rather than mature adults. Forgetting Sarah Marshall does not

Hold anything back and most of the time does not bother to disguise what it wants to

Say, which is fantastic.

As with most films of this genre the plot is not the greatest. Nevertheless, there is

Enough to keep you interested and the comedy throughout meant I did not really

Mind about the plot. It was slightly predictable but not as obvious as most films in this

Genre. Although Forgetting Sarah Marshall is relatively long it flew by, a bit like

Writing this review.

Overall, I really enjoyed this film and can not think of any way I could improve it. It

Shocked the audience, there was enough to keep you interested and it was utterly

Hilarious. It is definitely more suited a teenage audience but I think older people

Could still enjoy it. If you liked Knocked Up then you will love Forgetting Sarah

Marshall.
