I enjoyed this movie -- it was definitely more dark and serious than your usual Apatow fare, but the performances by Seth Rogen, the Apatow girls and Leslie Mann were very heartfelt and poignant. Adam Sandler is also very memorable as a star who is used to getting his own way, and has been living in such a world for a long time (maybe too long). That being said, the movie did bumble along for a while and waver between what direction it wanted to go in, but it's not a bad experience -- not in the least. Watch this film for the stars and their wonderful performances. There will be moments that you feel down, but the laughs will grab you in the gut.
