cricketbat Funny People is more dramatic than funny, so if you go into it expecting that then you won't be too disappointed. This movie has a realistic feel to it, but it also drags on a bit too long. I liked it, but I don't know if I'd recommend it to anyone.
tbills2 Watching Funny People with an attitude blows. It's literally an awesome movie. It's not that super funny, but it is really good and really funny. Its got a lot to offer, a lot of stars. a lot of funny from a lot of funny people, and a lot of heart and a lot of dick talk. Adam Sandler acts as George Simmons who's basically a lot like Adam. George Simmons is a dumb name for a star. It's the George part. Schwartzman's funny and cool. Aubrey Plaza is so freaking hot. Totally forgot this was the first movie I seen her in. The stand up is kind of the best part of Funny People. Aubrey Plaza is so freaking funny. Totally forgot this was this first movie I seen her in. Haha Jonah Hill is hilarious. Aubrey Plaza is so freaking stupid like what is she doing right now? Sandler's outstanding. He seems really bummed. Whatever. Aubrey Plaza makes me happy. Leslie Mann has cute kids. Adam thinks he can really act. I do too. Paul Reiser's touching. This movie was originally called Funny White People until they got RZA from the Wu Tang Clan. Love Norm MacDonald and his talk show is excellent. Dave Attell rules and his old late night comedy central show used to be good. Sarah Silverman is hot and I want to bang her, regardless. The guy from Die Hard is sweet. Wassup, Slim. I love you man. Eminem is my favorite male musician way ahead of James Taylor. F James Taylor. F Ray Romano. Haha Eminem. Marshall is just as funny as the Sandman. Eminem is the greatest rapper of all time. Funny People starts to get boring about an hour and a half in. I'm gonna rewind it and rewatch all the Miss Plaza parts. Adam doing his prank calls is the best. There's Justin Long again. Love Seth Rogen. He's a good dude. Aubrey is so freaking sexy, God, I'm super in to Aubrey. She can do me anytime. Aziz is hilarious. Eric Bana's super solid and super funny. Having cancer isn't too fun let me tell ya.
themizzz Funny movie watch alone or friend withdo not watch with family :D
FilmBuff1994 Funny People is a great movie with a very well developed storyline and a fantastic comedy cast that also do a really good job in scenes when they need to be more dramatic.It's another very well written comedy drama from Judd Apotow,which features a career turn for Adam Sandler,he takes a break from goofy comedies to play a character who really develops as we see him start off as a very pompous character and soon learns from his mistakes and becomes a better man,George Simmons is certainly one of the best performances of his career and without a doubt the character I had the most sympathy for out of everyone he's ever played.Seth Rogen also played a very normal character who I had the most sympathy for,partly because I am a huge fan of Rogen but also because I could really relate to him at times,particularly the awkward situations he was in and the way he just smiles when he can't think of anything to say.The film does bring in some great laughs as well of course,a lot of scenes had me in stitches and there are some quotable lines also.A serious story that still manages to bring in laughs,Funny People is a very enjoyable movie that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good comedy or drama. When a rich comedian finds out he has leukemia,he reconsiders his life,helped by an aspiring comedian.Best Performance: Adam Sandler Worst Performance: Eric Bana
