Get Him to the Greek Review Positive

It's always great when a comedy comes out with people you recognize as being in other movies you thought were funny. (ie. Jonah Hill the fat dude from Superbad, Knocked Up, etc.). Certainly he will have weight loss success stories later on , but for now that is how I know him. Not by name.

I guess what I look for almost every time when I look for reviews on a movie is Roger Ebert. While I may not always agree with his tastes I almost always agree with his fairness, and his opinions on the movies he views. He seems to catch things that most other reviewers don't, and doesn't try to act like he is an art school nerd all the time. Well he does sometimes, but he at least makes his reviews understandable to people that hate those types.

He of course gave the movie high marks (3/4 stars):

There are really two movies here. One is a gross-out comedy that grows lyrical in its exuberant offensive language, its drug excesses, its partying, its animal behavior. The other movie, which comes into focus, so to speak, in the last half, is surprisingly sweet, and shows that Aldous and Aaron arrive at a friendship that has been tempered in the forge of their misbehavior. Both "Get Him to the Greek" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" were produced by Judd Apatow, who does a nice line in gross-out comedies.

I really don't need anymore to be quite honest.
