I'll see this, whether I like it or not.
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.

Russell Brand is too much. Can't take him.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

so nobody has seen this?

it was funny. i was expecting more for some reason. i remember laughing a lot more when i read the script a long time ago so maybe i had very high expectations. anyhow considering there's been a lot of shit lately, this is solid and worthy.

jonah hill is the shit.

I saw it.  Not what I was expecting.

Elisabeth Moss is the shit.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

this was kinda choppy and messy. the threesome bit was forced in for laughs, and there were lots of scenes that appeared to be cut in weird spots...as if they liked a few jokes from the scene, but didn't want to include the whole thing. still, i laughed.

I saw this twice and its fun, enjoyable, and ultimately predictable. Still decent fast food to munch on if you have nothing else to do.

MILD SPOILERS





I saw this and forgot about it.  It had funny moments, but overall I thought it could do with having Russell Brand's character be more of an unabashed hedonist, rather than having him try to change in the end.  Diddy's scenes were particularly funny.  If this was on TV I'd probably watch it again.

Saw this last night and agree with Ravi's comments. Was pretty much what I expected, although the third act was too cute. I enjoyed it overall. I found myself looking forward to Diddy being in a scene. Kinda glad I didn't blind buy it on the strength of Sarah Marshall, but if it was on TV I'd probably watch it.
He held on. The dolphin and all the rest of its pod turned and swam out to sea, and still he held on. This is it, he thought. Then he remembered that they were air-breathers too. It was going to be all right.
