Aaahhhh, yes! A breath of fresh air!
I have to admit, as a woman I am sick and tired of the repetitive, monotonous female rom coms Hollywoods churns out. I was REALLY surprised with this movie: it's 100% feel good geared towards the male market but the female market will certainly enjoy it. Like the previous reviewer said it IS original, but it is NOTHING like the movies mentioned (Knocked Up etc...)and I'm glad that it isn't. It actually felt good to watch the whole male bonding thing happen(as compared to the usual boring female drab).I enjoyed this film for all sorts of reasons: it was funny, quirky,original and a breath of fresh air.
Brilliant acting from all concerned, and for once all the actors and actresses looked normal (translation: they did not look stick thin as everyone seems to look in flicks...
I Love You, Man
Bromantic comedy starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel as two straight men in love, from the writer of Zoolander and the Meet The Parents series John Hamburg
American men aren't as girly as their British counterparts. It's a sweeping generalisation, but it's true. American men don't fit in skin-tight Topman clothes, they wouldn't be seen in a floral shirt, not even a 1970s vintage floral shirt, and they don't wear scarves.

Hip-hop, arguably the culture most influential on ideas of maleness in the last decade or so, insists on clothes so baggy the...
I Love You, Man
Claudia PuigYou'll recognize the type: a sweet and sensitive sort who has "always been a girlfriend guy." No testosterone-laden, beer-swilling posse surrounding him, his friends have mostly been women. Plus, he gets along with his mom. She might even be his best friend. Meet Peter, played likably by Paul Rudd in the funny, engaging bromantic comedy I Love You, Man. Peter's moderately metrosexual ways work just fine for his loving girlfriend, Zooey (The Office's Rashida Jones). He's the kind of guy who'll whip up root-beer floats for Zooey and her gal pals, complete with chocolate-cookie straws. And he's not doing it just to score. He attests that one of the best nights of his life was sharing a "summer salad and a bottle of wine and watching Chocolat." ...
