Get Him to the Greek (2010)

dupa atitea RIP-uri grele, m-am relaxat cu Get Him to the Greek, si I got two words for you, Russell Brand, revelatia anului, nu disfunctionalul Jesse Eisneberg.

am recuperat ce nu vazusem, anume Get Him to the Greek si acum, sorry, trebe sa vad si Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008), as this was a spin-off. Co-scris si regizat tot de Nicholas Stoller. Genial e comicul englez Russell Brand as Aldous Snow, derelict self-destructive rock star has been (Axl Rose meets Keef style),

si Jonah Hill (care mi-aduce aminte de Chris Penn) as geek-ul care trebuie sa aiba grije de el sa ajunga la concert la timp la Greek Theatre in LA in 72 de ore.
Incep sa cred ca asta e contenderul principal la categoria: comedia nului 2010. Desi e destula drama tip Almost Famous/Dazed and Confused si down-to-earth debauchery.
In primul rind inventia trupei Infant Sorrow, cu Brand la voce, de la The Clap cintata in loc de atrocele African Child, energie si productie si compozitie Lyle Workman (with a guest stint of Jarvis Cocker). F.O.H. (adica "fucked on heroin") si
care cinta toate piesele, ca si Rose Byrne ale fostei sale iubite, Jackie Q. ( a la Aguillera), care acum o arde cu tobarul de la Metallica ("the crying drummer", Lars Ulrich as himself). Seful casei de discuri e psihotic si hyper, Sean Combs. Adica nimeni altul decit Puff Daddy ! El are o interventie funny la finalul filmului, post-credits. Colm Meaney apare ca tatal lui Aldous, azi chitarist in Las Veags in trupa de acompaniamnet la impersonatorii Rat Pack !
in plus soundtrackul contine destule clasice, Sex Pistols (Anarchy in the UK), Clash(London Calling), New York Dolls(Personality Crisis), Ramones (Cretin Hop), T.Rex (20th Century Boy) si Rolling Stones (Rocks Off), Goldfrapp, The Mars Volta, The Only Ones...si Mariah Carrey si Chocolate Daddy !!!
