Full Review Page

I was a bit disappointed but if you curb your expectations perhaps you'll like it more than I did. Some parts good. Others (like Kumail's stand up bit on Pakistan) didn't work at all for me (this bit in particular reminded me of Jason Segal's dracula thing in Forgetting Sarah Marshall - another Apatow production but better imo). It definitely felt a bit too forced - by trying too hard to make a heartfelt true story romance it came across as phony at times. Having said that, not sorry I saw it. I prefer the films that it takes after - Knocked Up, etc.
