Anybody who is familiar with me, knows that I have an unhealthy fascination with all things Apatow, so it should be no surprise to you that I loved this film. It could have been a little bit better, but I have no major complaints. It's just a hair below Knocked Up, Superbad and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I'd say it's right on par with the 40 Year-Old Virgin, but I'm willing to bargain that in the long run I will end up liking this one more. I plan on seeing it at least 2 or 3 more times before the year is over, which is a very good sign. So far I'd have to say it's my third favorite film of the year.
Please read Fred the Wolf's review if you haven't already. I mentioned him more in the first version of my video, but it was like 20 minutes long, so I had to cut a lot of shit out. Oh yeah, that's right, I did a video review. The latest version is only about ten minutes and if you want to hear what else I thought about the movie, I'd appreciate it if you could give it a look-see. The good news is that I got a new, fancy microphone for my computer. The bad news is that I forgot to change the settings on my video recorder to recognize this mic, so the recording still isn't that great. But being that this is only the second video I've produced in my entire life, I think I did a decent enough job and I vow to keep getting better at it. Enough nonsensical babble. Here's the clip:

THis was a lot of fun to watch.
Thank you for this.
Hiya Jon! Hey, good stuff here! Although, I do have to say that I felt like you were staring at my tits through most of this (try to watch the camera). Still tho, just your second time out with the cam, so I think my man-boobies can carry you for 2-3 more episodes before it becomes noticeable. I got all defensive for a second about Rosie Perez's age, but after I looked her up on IMDB and saw that she's 6 years older than me, I decided she did look good, for her age (I thought she was just my age). Anyway, keep on truckin', keep on filmin', my friend!
Sure, sure, it's good, but is it funny?
