Peter Bretter (Jason Segel) is crazy in love for his long-term girlfriend Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell). He was a fanboy for his actress girlfriend. He practically worshiped her, so when she broke up with him he was shattered into a million pieces. And like the movie title states, he tried to forget about Sarah Marshall.

He went to Hawa'ii to do the trick but found her there, in the same hotel, with her new beau Aldous Snow (Russell Brand). But this is a romance, so either A.) he was going to hook back up with Sarah Marshall after she realized how much she truly loves him or after she realizes how wrong her current boyfriend is. Or B.) Peter would find a new and better girlfriend.

If you guessed B then you win the prize. Peter hooked up with the hotel maître d, Rachel Jansen (Mila Kunis), who clearly had a thing for crushed spirited, depressed rebounds. I guess there was something adorable about the way he cried, drank, and generally moped around Hawa'ii all day everyday.

As pathetic as Peter was, and as hard as it was for me to watch a grown man become a sniveling simp, there were some funny parts to the movie. Jason Segel was not funny, not even close, but other actors such as Paul Rudd, Jonah Hill, Jack McBrayer, and even Russell Brand were funny. They helped this movie be marginally better than mediocre and that's what got me through it.
