Baby Mama

A single successful woman desperately wants to start a family but is unsuccessful with invetro. She decides to take the next step and hires a Surrogate Mother. When the Surrogate has problems at home she moves in with the leading lady and a form of the "Odd Couple" ensues.

I have to admit that I was totally surprised at how entertaining this movie was. I went in expecting another dumb SNL movie and was genuinely surprised. This isn't an amazing comedy and is still pretty forgettable nevertheless for what it is, it was fun and entertaining. There are also some fun supporting characters that pop up through out the film.

Rated PG-13 (Language and Sexual Content)

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Peter is dumped by the famous television actress Sarah Marshall. In order to get on with his life and forget her, he goes to Hawaii, only to find that his hotel room is right next door to, who else? Sarah Marshall and her new British Boy Band boyfriend.

So the mayhem begins, as he tries to forget her, but keeps running into her. This movie is being called one of the funniest movies of the year and even though there were a couple of times where I did in fact laugh out loud. This movie was so crude, so foul, so raunchy-I don't think that I would ever recommend it to anyone. It's not funny enough to put up with the raunch. And has so much raunchy, crude, foulness that it seems like a cheep way to a punch line. I know that lots of critics out there loved this movie, but I think that real humor is smart not foul. Forget seeing Sarah Marshall.

* Not-A-Chance

Rated R (language, sex, nudity, lots of nudity, blood, violence...you name it, it's got it)
