May 13, 2009I thought this was ok, after all the good reviews I was a little disappointed. It has it's moments but they are a little to few and far between and I'm not a big Russell Brand fan. Worth a watch but I have seen much better comedies recently. If you like this check out Good luck C... ...( read more )

May 2, 2009Cute, funny movie. Jason segal and Mila Kunis did a wonderful job. Russell Brand is hilarious. Full of fun romantic comedy cliches but well worth the 2 hours.

April 17, 2009Same crew that made notched up, funny at times, Russell Brand normally anoys me, but played his part well, Jason is the hearbroken guy that find love, but at the same place his x is staying at, comical, worth a watch.

April 12, 2009Two things went through my mind while watching this movie:
1) I will have Jason Segal's full frontal nudity scenes embedded in my memory banks whenever I watch him on TV in "How I Met your mother"
2) Mila Kunis (from TV's "That 70's Show) has grown up to be quite a stunnin... ...( read more ) -
March 22, 2009This is like a 'chick flick' for guys, with a little bit more raunchy comedy, but it works!
In it's entirety it's about forging and maintaining relationships...we all have pitfalls and quirks, and at the movie's epicenter there are no 'bad people'...just people with different lev... ...( read more ) -
July 2, 2009Way more funny than I thought it was going to be with Apatow's usual background actor, Segel, really stealing the show. Gets really random near the end, but always a laugh in there at some point.

Halfway through I realized that I'd lost most of my standards, maybe under my seat, and was enjoying the erratic evolution of the nonsense. full review

Kurt Loder, MTV
The movie would have benefited from a lot more of Russell Brand, whose surreal egocentricity and vast reserves of disdain light up every scene he's in. The man wields every great line he's given like ... full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
The cringingly wacky scenarios, offbeat characters and comic dialogue serve up a crowd-pleasing, laugh-filled experience. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Like its predecessors, Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a smart comedy that trades on social embarrassment and shows love from the standpoint of male insecurity. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Forgetting Sarah Marshall follows the Apatow formula faithfully enough. All that's missing is charisma -- the je ne sais quois that makes us fall in love in the first place. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Forgetting Sarah Marshall goes out with a whimper when you so want a bang. But until then, this so-called romantic disaster comedy is a raucous ride through one man's pain. full review

A.O. Scott, The New York Times
Forgetting Sarah Marshall does not entirely play by the established conventions of its genre.
April 17, 2008
Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
While it's hardly unforgettable, the latest raunchy rom-com from prolific producer Judd Apatow is a genial timewaster. full review

"Clearly the people on Flixster are getting stupider and stupider if this film only has a 2 and a half rating."
I concur with that.
Oh, and madmac- Come on dude! Two and a half is way too low for an All-Flixster score. Take a look at Norbit; it has three and a half star, and I'm pretty sure no one with a brain in their head would prefer that piece of garbage to THIS! If they do, well I guess that just proves that Johnd's above statement isn't far from the truth! -
April 25, 2008I don't understand why people ask why the rating is so low. If people are rating it low, they didn't like it, myself included. I didn't think it was very funny, or very good. That's just my opinion.

April 24, 2008I was wondering the same thing, why is the rating for Sarah Marshall so low? It should definitely be higher.
