Get Him To The Greek is the new movie from the creative mind of Judd Apatow, best known for Superbad, Knocked Up, and Funny People. And it follows a very similar route to those movies.
Get Him To The Greek stars Jonah Hill as a record company employee charged with getting fading rock star Aldous Snow to the location of an anniversary concert. But things don’t exactly go smoothly.
The Aldous Snow character has already been seen in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but in that film he was merely a bit-part player. Get Him To The Greek sees him promoted to front and center.
Get Him To The Greek is getting positive reviews, with many people regarding it as the best comedy of 2010 so far. This year’s The Hangover? Possibly, at least if you appreciate Judd Apatow’s particular brand of comedy. Which I do.
