Funny People
Funny People is Judd Apatow's third film in his comedy trio but this one feels as a dramedy. Adam Sandler gives one of his best performances on screen they give Sandler something to work with and challenge himself with. Seth Rogen gives comic relief as his writer and suprisingly Leslie Mann is enjoyable in it.

Not Funny People
Funny People is not a funny movie, don't get confused. This IS Adam Sandler's best movie. Switching from a kid's entertainer to a mature comedian with issues. Seth Rogen is great as his assistant who is now starting to move up in Hollywood. (Seth) There is foul language around every corner and sexual content has never been greater. However, this is a good look at the reality of superstrars and life around them. Don't be confused and think that your favorite actor/star has the perfect life. It may be bad.

First off, i may not remeber everything cause it was so long..., but it was worth it. It wasnt as innaproprite as i thought. For sex, there is explicit dialogue thruought, and two sex scenes (one shows breasts) but these last for like 5 seconds each. The language is continuous with f**k (myb 50-100 times), c**k (1-5 times) and other minor words.

Loved it!
This movie is great. I loved it. But if you're over 16, don't go with your parents, only because it talks about awkward subjects. No offence to parents. -i-luvz-moosyk

This is a good movie. It is one of sandlers best yet. Keep in mind though there is sex and a lot of language and penis stuff.

Hated it
Parents need to know that this movie isnt even worth watching. the jokes are stupid, the language is really not necessary, and a lot of crude sexual talk. I thought it was so bad that i didnt even watch it all.

sad
Great sad movie. My rating: Strong language throughout, some sexuality and nudity, and some drug use.

One of the finest dramadies of the past 25 years.
"Funny People" has raunchy humor and sex, but more character drama and a big ol' heart.

Great movie
This is a great movie. There are 3 sex scenes. Two of them inculde bare breasts. The third, a man proforms oral sex on a woman. The language is also quite pervasive.

Bloated comedy, but fine performances around
Let me start this off with NO comedy should be 2 1/2 hours, even if it's the king of raunchy comedy himself Judd Apatow. The movie could've been done in 100 minutes. That in mind, "Funny People" features a non-stupid performance by Adam Sandler (for once) and a good supporting cast. It's not all that funny, more of a character study that takes a long time to develop.

Very funny
This movie is about a man fighting a disease, and sends a very good message beneath the language

Explicit but meaningful comedy is raunchy, but worth it
Judd Apatow, who specializes in very raunchy and very funny comedies had, in the summer of 2009, finalll released a movie that was actually a littl;e bit more. That movie was called, of course, Funny People. And, at first glance, this may seem like just another one of Apatow's raunchy comedies, and, honestly, it is. But, what makes it so much more than that, is the simple few facts that; It has a heart. It understands pain and suffering. It understands the dullness and mundane life that has become of popular celebrities, who are now more lonely and miserable than evertything. And, above all, Funny People understands how people related to life with so many different essences of personal pain. Sure. It's just a comedy. But what a comedy it is. While I love almost every movie that Apatow directs, produces or writes, which includes The 40 Year old Virgin, Knocked Up, Step Brothers, Get him to the Greek, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and so much more, Funny People, to me, is actually a rather large cut above them, and a cut above the rest of the comedies like this one. But, despite all this positivity I have for it, this movie carries an extremely deserved R Rating: There is extremely frequent, explicit and crude sexual humor throughout the movie, including many, many, many raunchy jokes about genitalia, sex and pretyy well anything else that relates to that topic. Also, to go along with that, there are a total of four very graphic and crude sex scenes, which are also very, very funny. And, finally, there is a pretty well equal amount of strong profanity throughout the movie, as well, with about 165 uses of the F-word and it's derivatives, which also includes sh-t, d-ck, c-ck, -ss, h-ll, d-mn, g-dd-mn, n-gg-r, p-ssy and more. So, while you may think that this is just another comedy with Apatow hammering at his raunchy jokes like he always does, well, it is. But's it's so much more than that. (Plus, it's funny as hell)
