Summer Movie Previews

Hey guys, so over the next couple of weeks I will be posting a little blurb about some movies coming out this summer that I am excited about. Why not start with the movie I am most excited to see??

Funny People
In Theaters: July 31st
Writer / Director: Judd Apatow
Starring: Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Man
Plot:
When seasoned comedian George Simmons (Sandler) learns of his terminal, inoperable health condition, his desire to form a genuine friendship inspires him to take a relatively green performer (Rogen) under his wing as his opening act. (IMDB.com)

Trailer:


It's about time Adam Sandler teamed up with Judd Apatow! They were roommates back in the day and have been really close friends since then. I have really high hopes for this movie since Apatow's first two movies (The 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up) and pretty much every other movie Apatow has been a part of
(Anchorman, Superbad, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Pineapple Express, etc.) have all been hilarious. However, it will be interesting to see him tackle a "comedy-drama". I am anticipating a great performance from Adam Sandler (long overdue) and a great supporting cast which include Apatow regulars: Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, and Jonah Hill along with Eric Bana and Jason Schwartzman. I am extremely excited for this movie and I really hope it meets (or exceeds) my high expectations.
