Funny People

I saw Funny People this past Friday (aka My Birthday). All in all a very good movie, definitely one of Adam Sandler's best. There are some classic lines that I'm sure people will be repeating for quite a while. I only had one problem with it, and I'm sure you'll hear this from other people who've seen it. The first hour and a half is unbelievably hilarious. After that, it takes a serious turn and starts to slow down. I appreciate Judd Apatow's unique take on the comedy genre, developing characters and presenting mature situations. I think he could've toned it down and little and shortened up the film, making it just as heartwarming and just as funny. All in all, well worth the price of ticket. Definitely go see it.
