Movie Review: Funny People

by James Evans

Judd Apatow’s latest is not as terrible as Knocked Up but it still lacks something. The end game takes way too long to get to but it is a more believable ending than I expected. The preview shows most of the movie which is always too bad. There are some really good parts and if they cut 45 minutes I might have enjoyed it more. The funniest part though is that Adam Sandler does a routine at a MySpace gala and they say repeatedly “Fuck Facebook.” I don’t remember the last time I saw anything interesting on MySpace and thought they had pretty much given up.
