Why People Like Get Him To The Greek

By Travis Carr

Get Him To The Greek is a continuation of the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshal. It isn't exactly the same, but the main characters are present and the story is set in the same kind of quirky fashion. The movie is a fast paced comedy that will keep people moving and laughing at the same time.

The film works well because it constantly changes back and forth from scene to scene. Viewers can follow the lives of a few different people and begin to see how each world ties together. The quick scene flashes, mean that views do not have to get caught up in a drama but rather a quick well written comedy.

The jokes are really funny. Some movies contain humor that is just lost on people, but this particular movie seems to capture exactly the kind of humor that is needed. With real and fresh jokes that have not been heard before, it may be refreshing to watch for some people.

The title is catchy and will draw people in to see the movie just based on it alone. When the title is heard at first, people begin to imagine what it could mean. It almost sounds like someone is being taken to a Greek person, and then you may wonder why and what may be happening. However, it is actually about getting someone to a Greek venue to play music.

One of the great things about this film, is that it is a fast paced and funny movie. The scenes are short and are full of funny scenes and hilarious comments. The short scenes go well with a plot that is also fast moving. Each scene moves quickly into the next and leave people hanging and wanting to see more, that helps the film move quickly along and keep people on the edge of their seats.

The two main actors in the film have a few issues that they have to deal with throughout the move. One of those people has a drinking and drug issue and loses his wife and child in the process. As he battles his issues in a humorous way, he finds his calling with music and rushes to attend a music performance that takes place at the end of the story.

The other actor in the film has his own problems from his relationships with women to his job. With his problems in tow, he helps his buddy work through his troubling times by trying to cheer him up. The pair find their lives in misery before they begin to turn things around. A series of events occur that help them figure out how to change their lives. Viewers can watch the actors go from one point in the movie to finally getting the things they were after. The completion at the end, leave movie fans content and happy.

Like all light comedies, the story ends on a good note, where both main stars eventually achieve what they were ultimately after. And even though it seems that each person would never get to the final point in the film, Get Him To The Greek ends on a happy note. Leaving not only the stars happy, but also the fans watching it. - 40730
