GET HIM TO THE GREEK

I have to say that I was very excited to see the new Russell Brand Jonah Hill movie Get Him to the Greek.  That is until I saw it.  This is a follow up in a way to the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall.  Which by the way the more times you see it the funnier it gets.  That will NOT be happening for this pile of shit movie.  It's about a record rep, who by the way are the dirtiest people on Earth, who wants to relive his childhood to help his company by getting a washed up rockstar back on stage.  In the original movie Aldous Snow was a dick, but he was the kind of dick that you could like.  In this movie he is just a DICK!!!!!!!  You never find yourself feeling bad about his situation or for what he's gone through because he is just such an asshole.  As far as Jonah Hill goes he just sucks!!!!!!!!  I mean he should be thinking about how much he could mess up Superbad 2.  He is an AWFUL actor and he's really not that funny.  The only thing that was believable about the movie was that Hills girlfriend.  Yes, I said girlfriend, is GOD awful ugly.  Which is cool because there is NO WAY that someone that is as dirty looking as he is could EVER land a hot chick!!!!!!!!!!!  The only thing that was kind of funny about this movie was Sean Puffy Combs who owns the record company was good.  It was almost like Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder but not quite that funny.  This movie is terrible and I can't wait to NEVER see it again.  I FUCKING HATED THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
