Has its moments but that's it.

Occasionally funny comedy that has its moments but feels pretty forced with its premised. Both Russell Brand and Jonah Hill have chemistry but they are not working with good material and the film is stolen from right under their noses by Sean P Diddy Combs, who gives a very funny performance and gives the film's few true laughs. I would have liked the film to be more about him but he's fine with the role he has.

Its more and less a remake of "My Favorite Year" which had Peter O Tool but it lacks that film's showmanship. The film had potential but outside of a few moments of really funny material ( All thanks to Sean P Diddy Combs), there is really nothing here that can't wait for DVD.

score 4/10
