Forgetting Sarah Marshall is like a John Cusack film, except raunchier and less Peter Gabriel.
Peter is dumped by his TV star girlfriend (Kirsten Bell) and decides to take a trip to Hawaii where... his girlfriend has gone with her new boyfriend. Peter plays The Lonely Guy so well in the beginning that I expect Charles Grodin to show up and say hi. As he meets an odd assortment of characters and gets sweet with one of the employees (Mila Kunis) he begins to realize that there is life and love after Sarah Marshall.
This film is a close relative to a typical Adam Sandler romantic comedy except it has better writing, better, direction, better acting, and is actually funny. It may not be as funny as some of this gangs other work, but Forgetting Sarah Marshall is the most pleasing date movie that's been released this year.
