About two thirds though my third attempt to sit through this dross I realised it was just a rip-off of Blake Edwards' 10 - a composer runs off on holiday after breaking up with his girlfriend - but this time they cast Russell Brand as Bo Derek!

Judd Apatow's position as producer probably had a lot to do with Forgetting Sarah Marshall being greenlighted, a fairly entertaining romantic comedy which provides fairly consistent giggles for most of its running time.Jason Segel, who also wrote the screenplay, plays Peter Brettner, a musician who has just broken up with his girlfriend, Sarah Marshall(Kristen Bell), a television star, who is now involved with a rock musician (Russell Brand). In an attempt to forget about Sarah, Peter vacations in Hawaii, and in true romantic comedy fashion, Sarah and her new guy are vacationing there as well. We then watch poor Peter running into Sarah wherever he goes while taking the attention of an attractive hotel desk clerk (Mila Kunis) for granted.Segel presents a very flawed and believable character in Peter, who is painted as this tortured sad sack while Sarah is painted as this cold-hearted bitch, which is not surprising since Segel did write the screenplay and if you're OK with that, you will probably be OK with everything that goes on here, even if it goes on a little too long, which is something I've come to expect from the Judd Apatow rep company.Segel and Kunis make a nice couple and Russell Brand is very funny as Aldous Snow, the arrogant but not as dumb as he looks rock star. Segal has provided some funny moments along the way for Jonah Hill as a waiter obsessed with Brand, Bill Hader as Peter's stepbrother, Kristen Wiig as a yoga instructor and especially Paul Rudd as a perpetually stoned surfing instructor.There are definitely some slow moments here and there, but Segel and company will hold your attention for most of the running time.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008): Dir: Nicholas Stoller / Cast: Jason Segel, Kristen Bell, Russell Brand, Mila Kunis, Bill Hader: Hilarious comedy about relationships gone bad. Jason Segel plays a composer for a T.V. crime show that his girlfriend stars in. After she dumps him he decides to seek refuge elsewhere but upon his venture to Hawaii he discovers that his ex is there with her boyfriend. While formula in structure director Nicholas Stoller allows viewers to see all sides of the equation as well as place viewers as observers. Segel plays off the depression with great comic payoff but ultimately finds new beginnings and a renewed pride. Kristen Bell plays his ex whom basks in fame and success but also in despair and personal illusion. Mila Kunis plays a resort receptionist whom Segel falls for. One could say that her role is more predictable in nature but Kunis brings honesty and integrity to it. Russell Brand plays Bell's naïve musician boyfriend who accepts Segel despite protest from Bell. Brand is not the typical hooligan boyfriend but rather a gullible but likable sort who learns after the errors of others because he repeats them. Bill Hader plays Segel's stepbrother who is critical of him, which adds further humour when focusing on Segel's downfalls. Very funny romantic comedy that many will relate too. Anyone who has struggled with a break-up will not forget Sarah Marshall. Score: 9 / 10

Peter (Jason Segel) is a composer and a likable guy who's devastated when his girlfriend of five years, Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell), the star of a TV show dumps him. To breaks his depression he flies to Hawaii, but Sarah and her new beau, Aldous Snow, a promiscuous perverse English rocker (A scene stealing Russell Brand) are staying at the same resort too. This movie was my introduction to Jason Segel having never seen an episode of his TV show 'How I Met Your Mother' and now revisiting it years later, (having seen every episode of the show) I can still see why I liked his performance here even more.Every actor here does a fine job, from the Impossibly gorgeous Mila Kunis, Paul Rudd to Kristen Bell and Jonah Hill. But it is Brand who steals the movie, he is simply hilarious. It is no wonder Aldos Snow got his own spin off movie 'Get Him To The Greek'
