Struggling musician Peter Bretter (Jason Segel) has spent six years idolising his girlfriend, television star Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell), but his world is rocked when she dumps him. To clear his head, Peter takes an impulsive trip to Oahu, where he is confronted by his worst nightmare: his ex and her tragically hip new British-rocker boyfriend Aldous (Russell Brand) are sharing his hotel. As he torments himself with the reality of Sarah's new life, he finds relief in a flirtation with Rachel (Mila Kunis), a beautiful resort employee whose laid-back approach tempts him to rejoin the world.

What I loved most: Russell Brand
What I really hated: Slack pacing
The pacing's a little too loose for comfort, and it meanders quite a bit, but the main characters are well-drawn and multi-faceted, and the supporting cast (Brand, especially) is fantastic.
