Funny People - Not Apatow's best, probably in the middle, miles ahead of Knocked Up, but still so far behind 40YOV on both drama and comedy. Sandler effectively carries this film for a good 90 minutes until they probably bring in Mann/Bana. It's a film that is basically based around characters you are supposed to dislike, people around the LA scene for the most parts, celebs who are selfish, pricks, and above others, and then leeches.
Probably a 7/10 though from me.
