Amazon.co.uk Review
Breaking up is hard to do--but that doesn't mean you can't have some belly laughs about it. Forgetting Sarah Marshall provides that rare treat: a romantic comedy about breakups, that is both romantic and funny. The laughs, especially from writer-star Jason Segel, are both heartfelt and raunchy, and the film is just unexpected enough that it keeps the viewer's attention till the end. The touches of producer Judd Apatow, who's famously retooled rom-coms to appeal to guys as much as women, are woven throughout the film, but Segel's script, reportedly based on many of his own experiences, is fresh and original. And adult. Forgetting Sarah Marshall features male genitalia laffs presented in unexpected and human ways (the nude breakup scene is played for giggles but also deep poignancy), and the language and sex scenes are strictly for grownups--and rightly so. Segel's script, and his performance as Peter, show that he understands the true nature of adult relationships, which provides the refreshing difference between this film and some of Apatow's other crude creations. The cast is sublime; Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) plays title character Sarah, a self-absorbed actress, and Russell Brand is her new British honey who accompanies her to--what are the chances?--the exact same Hawaiian resort as Peter, who's nursing his broken heart. Mila Kunis plays Rachel, the resort employee who gives Peter a reason to hope, and Paul Rudd is the surfing instructor who gives him his own brand of heartfelt advice ("When life gives you lemons, just say 'F--- the lemons' and bail," he says cheerily). The pacing is screwball, and the absurdities fly (a "Dracula" musical puppet show, and a surprisingly lovely Hawaiian version of "Nothing Compares 2 U"). Nothing the viewer will forget any time soon.--A.T. Hurley

Synopsis
Knocked Up's Judd Apatow and Jason Segel reteam for this hilarious comedy about heartbreak. Segel also stars as Peter Bretter, a guy desperately trying to get over his ex (Kristen Bell, Veronica Mars) when he runs into her on vacation with her new boyfriend. Mila Kunis (That 70s Show) co-stars as the girl that just might help Peter move on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great little gem, 26 Aug 2008
By Ryan Corr "King Business" (Modus Operandi, New Hampshire) - See all my reviews
Despite being overshadowed here in the UK by Russell Brand being in it, upon watching this its obvious that this film belongs to Jason Segel, writer and star. Sure, Brand is hilarious, but no more so than Jonah Hill or Bill Hader and nowhere near approaching the rising star of Segel. For fans of the recent spate of romantic comedies for men, this will not disappoint.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good fun, 4 Feb 2009
By chuckles "barnie884" (Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This movie for me was a good fun feel good comedy along the lines of 40 year old virgin, Knocked up and Superbad. A good lads alternative to female rom coms. I have to admit I didn't have a clue how Russell Brand would work in this, however fitted in perfectly for me. Only small problem for me was too much nudity from Jason Segel for my liking! Great bargain buy comedy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cracking, 16 Sep 2008
This is a good fun film in the sun with a great cameo from Russell Brand. The humour is quite subtle in parts and straightforward in others but ultimately this is feelgood stuff. I loved it.
