Movie Review by Skye

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is in no way forgetful by any means. I thought this movie would be a silly money grabber riding on the coattails of Superbad and The 40 Year Old Virgin. This in no way is true. I dare say I enjoyed it as much, if not more than the aforementioned films. The story of a Peter Bretter, a young man who is dating a superstar television actress who gets dumped for an ultra cool superboy British rock star rings true in many the ear of all those that have been on the receiving end of a dumpage in life. Jason Segel of TV's How I Met Your Mother fame, is so good in this role, just like other Judd Apatow creations all of the casting is dead on and it is another story of the everyman going through an everyday situation (although I don't know many people, including myself, that have hooked up with a TV. superstar). Peter tries to drown his sorrows by vacationing to Hawaii only to discover that his now ex-girlfriend is there on a romantic getaway with her now Noel Gallagher-like rockman. What ensues is a laugh riot and heartfelt dialogue that all play just the right notes to produce just the right mix of emotions to create a truly awesome movie. If you are thinking about skipping this one, don't. There is just so much crap out there, that to find something, that seems so logical to make, but so often is not, is like finding a diamond in the rough.
