Critics Consensus

Thanks to a suitably raunchy script and a pair of winning performances from Jonah Hill and Russell Brand, Get Him to the Greek is one of the year's funniest comedies.

Deborah Ross The Spectator I like to think I have a sense of humour, but this is horribly tiresome and probably only fit for teenage boys, who do seem to get a buzz from this sort of thing. Aug 30, 2018 Full Review Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online Either way, it--and the movie--is annoying. Rated: D Sep 11, 2017 Full Review Perri Nemiroff Shockya.com Not quite up to par with Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but this is one easily worth multiple viewings with the potential to get funnier and funnier each time. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 13, 2010 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson Get Him to the Greek, follows the Apatow brand model by merging wild and crazy events and characters with a story peppered with realistic heart. Rated: 2/5 Oct 14, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Get Him to the Greek will make you laugh, but by no means does it live up to the Apatow standard. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) Irresistible gall. The vulgarity makes waves and the public drowns in laughter.

Steve F Ridiculously underrated. This movie has everything. The cast has great chemistry and for anyone who has been around the industry can tell you it's not too far off or exaggerated. Russell Brand is a perfect rockstar with mannerisms and overblown ego and sense of grandiosity while also walking the line of being a lonely soul with a decent heart. Jonah Hill plays a fantastic doting fan\talen manager that's meeting his long time idol and being along for the ride while also trying to be the voice of reason in the room. The movie is infintely quotable as most great comedies are. The cast ,especially Hill and Brand have terrific chemistry and the story always stays on point as the title states. It's a buddy adventure between a larger than life superstar and a lackey fan boy doting over him until the think veil of his larger than life image is peeled back. The movie is very reminiscent of something like Almost famous but less biographical feel and more of a comedy . The gags are very unique and not tropey and towards the end you feel that genuine investment into the characters and world that apatow films are known for. My only wish was that there was a bigger connection to forgetting Sarah Marshall , maybe a Jason Segel Cameo or a little more call backs but perhaps that's just my personal choice and not what's best for the movie . Entertaining throughout, with a runtime short of 2 hours normally being long for a comedy I feel like this movie uses all its time wisely and it's pacing is good with no more than a few minutes passing with a new funny bit revealed It's also not over indulgent or crowbarring a message somewhere Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/21/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/16/25 Full Review Lucas J. Not a bad feel good comedy... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/06/25 Full Review Ian F. Very very funny Sean P. Diddy combs stand out store very very funny. Are you mind f-ing me cause I feel like you’re mind f-ing me right now. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/26/25 Full Review Christopher R If you are a musician, please, watch this. You will never laugh harder. Other folks, maybe not so much. Lots of very insightful in-jokes and stereotype play for those who have lived it. Or been it. Or wanted to :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Audience Member Absolute and pure bullshit... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
