Finally the Dack gets to review something before it comes out. Two weeks ago the Dack got to attend a sneak preview of I Love You, Man.
The Dack enjoyed this movie... I'm a big fan of male friendship and believe that no man can be be complete without having some sort of male bonding in their life and this movie is says it all so much funnier. The story is about Peter Klaven (Paul Rudd) as a guy who has no male friends and seems to be just rolling with life.... until his new fiance and her friends point out to him that he has no guy friends... uncomfortable with not having anyone to be the best man at his wedding he goes on a search for a friend. After a couple of man dates set up by family members that totally back fire Peter meets Sydney Fife (Jason Segel) who is basically the opposite of Peter but after a couple of drinks they find enough common ground for friendship to blossom.
The two main characters in this film are played by Paul Rudd and Jason Segel and their characters are very similar to other roles they have played.... this is not a bad thing. The Dack is a huge fan of both of these actors and them doing what they usually do becomes hilarious when you mix it together. The rest of the cast does a good job of providing extra laughs but your enjoyment of the movie totally rests on the shoulders of Rudd and Segel. I love you man isn't a complex movie by any means but the Dack doesn't need his comedy's to be deep, just funny and I Love You, Man fits the bill!.jpg)
This movie is a bromance in the same line as Swingers and Superbad but targets those of us between 25 and 40 far better. This movie isn't perfect and does lag a bit but it totally pays off in the end. If you are a guy and didn't think you needed any strong male friendships I hope this movie shows you the error of your ways. There are some things guys just need to hear from other guys. The Dack laughed enough to give this one sevenDacks.
