#7 of 2009...I LOVE YOU, MAN

7. I LOVE YOU, MAN (directed: John Hamburg)



Let it be said and known to the world now...if (as an actor) I could ever work with one guy in a comedy film, that guy would be Jason Segel. The guy is BRILLIANT, and his performance (along with a wonderful turn by Paul Rudd), make this film not only the best "buddy" comedy of the year, but the best comedy film of the year...period. The journey of a man to find some "bro" friends is heartfelt, hilarious, and at times disturbing, but the chemistry of the cast, along with the hilarious dialogue and brutally honest subject matter make for a film that may be at slight times a little too close to home, but nonetheless, gets funnier and funnier with each viewing. Oh, and it's RIDICULOUSLY quotable. "Slappin the bass", "Laters on the menjai", these are now offically in my lexicon.
