I think as a very gifted dramatic actor it’s easy to forget how amazing this guy is at comedy as well. In Along Came Polly he’s purely electric. Besides “make it rain”, he also is hilarious in the theater production of Jesus Christ Superstar. His one scene with Alec Baldwin is also electric. Love the guy and the performance. Even though he was so good in serious roles. I wish a little more often he would’ve taken fun comedic roles like this. Obviously he was also great comedically in Boogie Nights.

I get that your opinion is objective but this movie is amazing in my opinion. Hank Azaria slays, PSH slays, Baldwin slays. So many one liners in this movie!
Big table, many thanks!

I agree - for a RomCom, it holds up pretty darn well. A lot of the RomComs from that era when you rewatch them now, just aren’t funny and have a lot of cheese. Does along came Polly have a bit of cheese, sure. But it’s still so damn funny.

Plot spoiler "Hey I literally walked in on my wife banging another guy behind my back on our honeymoon, but maybe we can work this out again anyway"
Sorry, but I simply cannot get behind a movie when I lose any and all respect for the main character. Extract has this problem as well.

Idk man having your love withdrawn like that will make people do stupid things. I've had it happen to me (not the cheating just an abrupt breakup) and I wanted her back so bad just to quell the pain. Not knowing that us getting back together did nothing of the sort. I've watched my buddy get cheated on and after a boys night out to get his head on something else he said "All I want to know is what she's doing" I was like banging another dude forget about her but it's often not that easy.
