Synopsis

Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen and Leslie Mann star in this seriously funny film from writer-director Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up). When famous comedian George Simmons (Sandler) is given a second chance at a new beginning, he and his assistant, a struggling comedian, Ira (Rogen), return to the places and people that matter most… including the stand-up spots that gave him his start and the girl that got away (Mann). Co-starring Jonah Hill, Eric Bana and Jason Schwartzman, it's the film that critics have hailed as uproariously funny.

Possibly Adam Sandler’s best film

It’s more drama than a comedy but don’t let that put you off. Sandler gives a very sincere performance and Eric Bana is a treat.

it deserved better

This one didn't perform well at the box office but I thought it was really funny and compelling. Seth Rogan is great and Adam Sandler is a big-fat movie star, playing a big fat movie star.

Funny yet dark

Some good laughs in here, however you get a 2 for 1 with some quality dark drama. Probably Sandler's best since one of my personal favourites, Happy Gilmore. I also really liked seeing Eric Bana back in a comedy role. It's not short but entertaining most of the way - the ending could have been chopped by a few minutes, but don't let that stop you.
