Make ‘Em Laugh, Make ‘Em Laugh

“Funny People” is not only a movie about comedians. It’s a movie about how people can sometimes be funny and I do not mean in a laugh-out loud way. More in the “leaves you befuddled” vein. Because, when all things are considered, the people inhabiting Judd Apatow’s new film are rather pathetic, insecure and flawed. In other words, the stuff of great comedy and great drama.
That is what is so surprisingly refreshing about “Funny People.” When you think of a Judd Apatow film, you think of comedies whose protagonists are men-child who have yet to fully grow up and mature, who do not quite know how to handle a relationship with the opposite sex and who disguise their insecurities behind penis and eschatological jokes. You think of raunchy, sometimes outrageous comedies. “Funny People” has a lot of those ingredients but there is so much more going on. The jokes here hide a world of pain and disillusion.
“Funny People” is an incredibly smart, intelligent film for adults. It is also an anti-Adam Sandler film, giving the comedian the opportunity to deliver one of his best performances yet. It is also the second funniest film of the summer after the British political satire “In the Loop” (which you have to see right freaking now).
