From the awkward naked breakup in the very beginning to the Dracula puppet musical at the end, I love this damn movie. Jason Segel hits every note of this movie perfectly and in an adorably charming way like no other. Who could blame Mila Kunis for falling for him? And who could forgive Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell) for leaving him?
And then, of course, there's Russell Brand's Aldous Snow - a character that is the stuff of legends. Seriously, he inspired a second, unrelated movie to be written about this character. So well done. So what if it's not really acting because Russell Brand truly is that nuts? Now we all get to enjoy it together.
If you haven't seen this, please do. It's smart and funny, and tackles a topic near and dear to all of our hearts: how to move on when you've been brutally dumped.
