Get Him To The Greek - Review

Get Him To The Greek - Just get it on DVD.

The movie is what the name suggests.. Aaron Green (Jonah Hill) a runt in the music industry is tasked with bringing a perpetually high Rock star, Aldus Snow (Russell Brand) from London to the Greek Theater in LA for an anniversary concert.

Aldus Snow is the rocker whose career has gone down the drain and is on every conceivable narcotic. Aaron Green, is Green. He's new to the music industry and is looking to make a name for himself. He idolizes Aldus and is thrilled with the opportunity to Get him to the Greek.

The movie makes no excuses for itself as it tires to throw tasteless jokes after jokes at you. Granted some of them are funny and make you laugh. But some of the promos of this movie suggest that it's as funny as "The Hangover". Give me a break. "The Hangover" was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a while. The Greek does not even come close.

I'd say it's definitely one of the movies that will give you a good laugh one day when you watch it on TV. But do you really need to go to the movies for this one? I don't think so.

An average movie.. 2.5/5
