Movie trailer and editorial reviews

3 stars out of 5 -- "Brand is seductive to watch as he vamps his way across the various stages here, both public and private, working the hair-tossing insouciant artist thing to excellent effect."
Los Angeles Times - Betsy Sharkey (06/04/2010)

"GET HIM TO THE GREEK manages to sustain its hepped-up, manic energy for surprisingly long stretches....Byrne, in addition to being a good sport, has marvelous comic timing..."
Movieline - Stephanie Zacharek (06/02/2010)

4 stars out of 5 -- "Both Brand and Hill communicate as much with their facial expressions and bodies as they do with words....Brand shows flashes of genuine dramatic depth."
Box Office - John P. McCarthy (06/01/2010)

"[Hill] makes the perfect foil, as passive and impressionable as Brand is reckless and impulsive..." -- Grade: B
A.V. Club - Scott Tobias (06/03/2010)

3 stars out of 4 -- "The movie is funny in the way of THE HANGOVER about what trouble lads can get into when their senses are whirling."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (06/16/2010)

"It has a rambly, realistic tone, with one orgiastic mishap spilling into the next, and that tone keeps much of the action popping with surprise." -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (06/10/2010)

3 stars out of 4 -- "Brand's legit rock vocals make Snow's songs about venereal disease and bangers and mash actually kind of awesome."
Premiere - Premiere Staff (06/05/2010)

3 stars out of 5 -- "Brand displays a winning ability to seem completely real, and he's at his funniest whenever Snow is being horrendously pretentious or incandescent with mock rage. Hill, meanwhile, is the perfect foil..."
Empire - Chris Hewitt (06/18/2010)

3 stars out of 5 -- "There are some wickedly funny lines, gross-out gags, parodies and cameos....The show is stolen by Sean Combs, playing the volatile label boss..."
Uncut - Uncut Staff (08/01/2010)

"[T]he result is a welcome complication of the post-SPINAL TAP bozo archetype....[Hill] impresses as a foil to a famous and dangerous egomaniac..."
Sight and Sound - Henry K. Miller (08/01/2010)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's P Diddy who races off with the comic spoils as angry producer Sergio..."

Aaron is a record company intern who is given his big break, make sure Aldous Snow (the reformed drug free rock star from "Leaving Sarah Marshall") gets to a 10th year anniversary concert on time. This would be normally have been easy, but Aldous has lapsed back to his old ways. Partying, drinking and taking lots and lots of drugs.

Russell Brand is great once again as the rock star Snow (reprising the part from the unofficial prequel "Forgetting Sarah Marshall") who just wants to party and have fun, as is Jonah Hill, playing Aaron the guy who is trying his best to deal with a nagging girlfriend and a tough record mogul boss while attempting (unsuccessfully) not to get corrupted by Aldous and his wicked ways. Rounding off the fantastic performances is Sean Combs (P Diddy) who sends himself up perfectly as Sergio, the rap boss from hell.

So the casting is great, the acting is spot on and the plot is not bad either, so why is the movie only "good" and not "great"? Personal taste I guess. Aldous is a likable enough character considering his many flaws, and there is a lot of good funnies throughout the film, I seriously cried with laughter during the "drugs up the bum" bit, however there needed to be more gut-busters like that spread throughout the movie.

Oh yeah and the music, whether it be real or "Aldous Snow" fake, was also great (I still can't get "Furry Walls" out of my head) If you are not put off by jokes about drugs, drinking and can stand to see people vomiting quite a lot, you will probably like this film.

one of the funniest movies i have ever seen. Russel Brand is hilarious in this movie. Kind of mature comedy so make sure you don't let youngsters see it.

You will love this, there's tasteful nudity, the extras are useful too. There is music you can play and the digital copy allows you to have one free movie, which expires sometime in 2011. Anyways, enjoy it.
