I think The Ugly Truth was funnier than I love you Man.
This movie was pretty good. I was surprised by the performances of Adam and Sandler. They had some chemistry and were both good when they were serious and funny. Judd Apatow's movies are usually long so you know you're gonna be watching a movie for a little over 2 hours. And his movies usually have jokes about penises, boobs, and balls in them and is said quite often. I thought Seth Rogen did a good job at being a type of character that he usually isn't in movies. He was the more sensible one in the movie. This movie was funny but I still think The Hangover is the funniest movie of 2009, followed by I Love You Man then this movie.

i was never a big adam sandler fan so maybe i'm a bit biased... he just comes across as a total ass to me. not that he's not funny sometimes but he just doesn't come across as a real comedian in my eyes.
the only time i liked his work was on lsd when i first seen billy madison. he saw a giant penguin and i saw much much more than that!
I only like the Billy Madison and Happy Gilmour movies from him. I do, however, think his best movie was one where it wasn't a comedy, but a drama and that's Reign Over Me w/Don Cheadle...Punch-Drunk Love was not bad either.
That made me lol. The movie not so much. Too long and really had no point to it by the end of the movie. I liked all the actors, but the plot was boring.
Were you expecting an Oscar worthy performance by Sandler and Rogen? Were you expecting the movie to be nominated for Best Picture? It's a in Judd Apatow movie. His movies are funny. And who cares if they're long? 80 to 90 minutes aren't always enough for comedies. Sometimes they should be longer.
^ +1 because this is what should be expected...I don't get people who feel like they've been cheated by what passes for cinema today. Like for instance; I had a friend who was disappointed with Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. Of course it is going to be pure entertainment because the movie is hard to produce when CGI is still not a perfected art. Also, what do you expect from the likes of Sandler, Rogen, Judd Apatow, Megan Fox, Shia Labeouf...etc...etc...
Anyhow, to each his own I guess...
Reign Over Me was outstanding.
Just got back from watching it. I really loved it. I didn't see it as a straight comedy, so I was dissapointed by the drama, that's what I loved about it, I thought it had a great balance of both.
I will definitely buy this on blu ray. I did think them at the ex'es house was a bit long, but overall, loved it.![]()
