Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Apr 21

So we went to the movies Sunday night and saw the "romantic" comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
How do you check out whether you should spend almost ten bucks at the movies? Get online and check the reviews right? This one got pretty good reviews from both critics and movie goers. So we thought we were safe. NOT!
The first five minutes into the film (after about 20 of previews) we get to see the main character Peter Bretter (Jason Segel of How I Met Your Mother fame) au naturel, full frontal shots! As if once wasn't enough, we are graced with it a few more times later during the film.
The story would have been totally funny if not for the gratuitous nudity (of Jason Segel - I mean who wants to look at big white dough boy's privates? and the nudy pictures in the bathroom bar scene.)
Aiy Yah! This movie is rated R but I certainly wouldn't want my teens seeing it. It certainly deserves some sort of heads up for people.
It's too bad because it did have some good punch lines in it and would have been a good movie except for the gratuitous nudity.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall should be renamed Forgetting Peter Bretter!
