Get Him to the Greek Reviews

While it's not the classic comedy that you haven't lived until you see it, 'Greek' is more than good enough for a few, goofy laughs.

Full Review | Original Score: 6.5/10

What we end up with here is a tonally confused film with jokes that mostly miss and some good performances from the leads.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

The jury's still out on Brand as a leading man, at least on this evidence, but chances are you won't find a vehicle better suited to his comic sensibilities than this one.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

Diddy's scene-stealing work proves that he should really take a break from trying to prove his Serious Acting Chops and do more comedy.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

... Likely to be one of the year's best comedies.

Full Review | Original Score: B

To put it in rock 'n' roll terms, you'd go to the gig but you wouldn't buy the t-shirt.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

For the music lovers: If Superbad, Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall are Radiohead's The Bends, OK Computer and Kid A, Get Him To The Greek is their Amnesiac.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5

Quite sadly Get Him to the Greek just doesn't work in the way it was meant to. Despite an ambitious metaphor, the film is far too mean-spirited to tickle our funny-bone.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10

Nesavrena, ali sasvim probavljiva holivudska zabava za ove vruće ljetne dane

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10

Sorry guys, not even a good try

This Forgetting Sarah Marshall spin-off is lively and silly enough to keep us giggling. But its darker moments make the tone rather uneven.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5

Prepare to have a bawdy, taboobusting good time. Just don't expect it to resonate anywhere except your funnybone.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

I'm having a hard time remembering what the really funny bits in Get Him to the Greek were, exactly. I mean, I know I laughed. I just don't really remember why.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10

Get Him To The Greek promises a fun time but rarely delivers the goods.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

'Greek' works best during the cleverly scored mayhem montage scenes (a highlight involves absinthe and a French version of Happy Together).

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

While it's clear that rock-star petulance and vanity are being spoofed, there is little at stake dramatically or morally -- the bedroom threesome towards the end is weird rather than funny.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

The basic tonal problem is established right at the outset: we are being invited to laugh at exotic limey Aldous, whereas Brand's stand-up persona needs us to laugh with him and to see the world through his eyes.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

Needs more Kristen Bell.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

Just a succession of gross-out gags and sketches that fail to deliver.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

This is mostly plain hilarious.
