Judd Apatow makes his Almost Famous. Well, more like he makes his All That Jazz. Well, frankly, not quite as good as either.
There are many, many funny moments in this movie (all hail Jason Shwartzman!) but, ultimately, it falls apart. Too long, too uneven, ending truly sucks.
But I laughed many times.
My “B-” is, frankly, a little on the kind side, but there’s so much good will up there on the screen I can’t in good conscience slam this movie.
It is the epitome of “not bad.”
