Plot Summary: 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 Office's" 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 Peter's relationship with Zooey suffers, ultimately forcing him to choose between his fiancee and his new found "bro," in a story that comically explores what it truly means to be a "friend."

I saw a free sneak preview of this through Reel Truth. I, personally, thought it was hilarious.

 

[Gaddabout]

I smell formula!

Looks really funny...Reviews I have seen are positive.

 

[Pariah]

Paul Rudd is a pretty funny guy.

I saw this previewed in the theater and I have not laughed more at a theater preview since the one for Old School.

I'm anticipating this one. I love everyone in the cast. Paul Rudd is fantastic, and Jason Segel is funny by nature.

Watched it today. Just OK.

The wife and I saw this today...Really funny and an original story. The writing was a little weak, in spots, but Rudd and Segal really made it all work. I think the only character I had a problem with was Jon Favreau...I just can't see him as an a-hole. Jamie Pressley and J.K. Whatshisname were the best supporting characters...really hilarious.

Pretty much my thoughts exactly. Good but not great, and pretty funny. This movie is the reason why I rarely see comedies in the theater.

Good movie. Some really funny moments throughout!

Agree with this. Enjoyed the movie, and there were definitely some moments that really got me laughing.

 

[FArting]

Rented this last night funny movie

 

[Pariah]

I was kind of disappointed. I had pretty high expectations, though.

 

[Covert Rain]

Pretty damn funny. Some of the guy things they did I can totally relate too. My brother in law and I loved the movie.

Recently watched it. I thought it was flippin hilarious. Haven't laughed this much during a movie since the last Paul Rudd film I saw.
