Forgetting Sarah Marshall: 64 Out Of 100

Nowhere near the level of Virgin, Superbad, etc but still a pretty funny movie.

Problem is that for nearly 45 minutes I pretty much didn't like any of the characters because the motivations were so dumb. Eventually they fleshed out the story and made it damn decent but I was pretty underwhelmed for a good long stretch.

Even the bawdiness felt a little forced and not quite as side splitting funny as in previous Apatow productions. Here it seemed like schtick for schtick sake and it didn't quite work.

All in all it's good for a nice amount of laughs but as I said, don't expect a film on par with it's predecessors, cause it's not.
