Engaged to the woman of his dreams yet uncomfortable with the prospect of not having a best man for his upcoming wedding, a successful real estate agent with no male friends schedules a series of "man dates" in hopes of finding a suitable candidate for the big day. Peter Klaven is just like most other guys, only when it comes to making friends he's always been a bit withdrawn. After proposing to his girlfriend Zooey, Peter quickly realizes that he doesn't even have any friends close enough to qualify for the role of best man. "I Love You, Man" is a good story on friendship, and what makes friendship tick. For that and its healthy dose of comedy that delivers what it sets out to do.
Paul Rudd (Over Her Dead Body, Knocked Up and more) stars in this funny comedy as Peter Klaven, who just got engaged to Zooey a stunning beauty played by Rashida Jones. Peter does not have any friends that he can invite to the wedding so he sets out to find a Best Man to take to the wedding. what ensues is a search for a 'guy' friend and it is funny in every sense of the word. Rudd does a great job in his own way in this film and seems to be establishing himself as a lead comedy actor. Don't miss this one if you want a good laugh. Rated 4 of 5 for a very funny movie that anyone would enjoy watching.
Thanks for checking out our I Love You Man review. If you’d like to watch the video version of our I Love You Man review you can see it at the bottom of the written review. I’ve been a huge Paul Rudd fan for years now. We’ve all recognized him forever from a thousand different things. Josh on Clueless or Phoebe’s boyfriend Mike on Friends. But the moment I finally recognized his comedic genius was in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy where he played news reporter Brian Fantana. Oh yes my friends… Sex Panther, 60% of the time it works, every time. Jason Segel is another story. When I saw him in Knocked Up, I recognized him from a few episodes of CSI, but neither his role in that, nor in Knocked Up impressed me at all. To be honest I sorta thought he was dead weight in an otherwise pretty satisfying comedy. I was shocked when I found out he was getting a leading role in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. But, as we all know, he knocked that one completely out of the park. So put these two together in a movie called “I Love You, Man”, and I’m instantly interested. The trailers for the movie haven’t been very good, so I haven’t known what to expect. Did it turn out ok? Yes… yes it did.Read full review
Pull Rudd has been an up and coming actor in the past few years and he finally gets to shine as the star of the unconventionally comedic "I Love You Man." In his past roles (40 Year Old Virgin, Anchorman) he has always the sort of "side character" that always has a bit of reason amongst the ridiculousness surrounding the story. Now that characteristic is presented in a funny way of it's own, his awkwardness comes center stage and he bursts out on the scene as another comedic talent of this decade. Highly recommend this movie. Funny, but not too stupid.
In I Love You, Man, a comedy from John Hamburg (Along Came Polly, co-writer of Meet The Parents, Meet The Fockers, Zoolander), Peter Klaven (Paul Rudd, Knocked Up The 40 Year Old Virgin) is a successful real estate agent who, upon getting engaged to the woman of his dreams, Zooey, (The Offices Rashida Jones), discovers, to his dismay and chagrin, that he has no male friend close enough to serve as his Best Man. Peter immediately sets out to rectify the situation, embarking on a series of bizarre and awkward man-dates, before meeting Sydney Fife (Jason Segel, Forgetting Sarah Marshall), a charming, opinionated man with whom he instantly bonds. But the closer the two men get, the more Peters relationship with Zooey suffers, ultimately forcing him to choose between his fiancée and his new found bro, in a story that comically explores what it truly means to be a friend.Read full review
