Storyline

English rock star Aldous Snow relapses into drugs and booze after a break up and a disastrous record. In L.A., Aaron Green works for a record company stuck in recession. Aaron's boss gives him a career making task - to bring Aldous from London to L.A. for a concert in 72 hours. That day, Aaron's girlfriend Daphne tells him she wants to finish her medical residency in Seattle. Aaron's sure this ends their relationship. In London, things aren't much better: Aldous delays their departure several times, plies Aaron with vices, and alternates between bad behavior and trenchant observations. Can Aaron moderate Aldous's substance abuse and get him to the Greek? What about Daphne? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>

Hilarious.
6 June 2010 | by nicki9112See all my reviews

This movie is so funny! I had no idea. I saw it out of boredom...not really expecting a whole lot from it. It is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a while. I was shocked. There is a lot of vulgarity in it which gets kind of annoying at times but the movie itself is so funny that you can't help but like it.

I have been a fan of Jonah Hill for a while but didn't really like Russell Brand too much before this. They actually have great chemistry together. The laughs keep coming throughout the entire movie. I would recommend it! As long as you're not easily offended and can appreciate some pretty ridiculous humor, then I think you'll like it too.
