Funny People (R,
Drama, Comedy) C+
George Simmons (Adam Sandler) is a major comedy
movie star who finds out he has a life threatening disease and his chances
of survival aren’t very good. When he is performing some stand up
comedy at a local club he meets a struggling comedian (Seth Rogen) that
he takes under his tutelage. Both characters are very likable and have a
good dynamic with each other. Unfortunately even with the secondary plot
line the movie is too long and gets boring after a while, at one point I
was counting the number of speakers in the theatre.
