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.

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.

Hand on Heart, then I wasn't really expecting much from this movie, as I don't really think Adam Sandler is funny anymore, and Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill never were funny.The comedy in "Funny People" was forced and never really got up to a point where it brought about any laughs from me. And as such, then it was a strained ordeal to sit through this movie.The selling point of the movie was Leslie Mann, but despite her appearing in the movie and her good performance, then it wasn't enough to lift up the level of this movie. Not by a long shot."Funny People" seems like a rather pointless movie, and it wasn't particularly memorable. After having seen it, I can now say that the movie will go to the movie shelves and just slowly fade into oblivion. I assume that I was not in the target audience.Fans of Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen or Jonah Hill might get a kick out of "Funny People". Other than that, I can't really see any reason to spend two hours and twenty minutes on this.

"Famous comedy artist who is about to fall for Leukemia hires an assistant for comedy writing and trying to spend some time with his Ex- girlfriend who is already married. He Succeed? What happened to his health??" Full and full adult movie. Reunion is not good and the second breakup even worse. I really have no idea about the assistant and why he was there. I cant believe that I wasted 2 and a half hours for this movie. Worst stand up comedies throughout the movie. Even the roommates cant make the movie alive. Stay away.
