Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
Despite the lengthy run time, Funny People gives us one of Adam Sandler's best performances so I can't complain.

Solzy at the Movies
3.5 stars out of 4 -- The thing about FUNNY PEOPLE is that it's a real movie. That means carefully written dialogue and carefully placed supporting performances -- and it's about something.
Chicago Sun-Times
The stand-up scenes, with their bad lighting and air of flop-sweat, have the sting of truth....[Adam Sandler is] the movie's biggest draw and its most effective and powerful presence.
New York Times
Rating: 3.5/4 --
A wise and moving look beneath the mystique of celebrity.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
3.5 stars out of 4 -- It's the work of a major talent. Apatow scores by crafting the film equivalent of a stand-up routine that encompasses the joy, pain, anger, loneliness and aching doubt that go into making an audience laugh.
Rolling Stone
4.5 stars out of 5 -- This comedy about comedians, mistakes and mortality is as constantly engaging and reliably hilarious as you'd expect from Apatow...
Box Office
Funny People is deeply personal and intriguingly abstract, a bittersweet vision of a comedian's mournful existence.

Product Description:
Judd Apatow rounds up the usual suspects--Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, and Jonah Hill--for his third feature as a director. In FUNNY PEOPLE, a popular comedian comes far closer to death than he had every imagined. The comedy also stars Eric Bana, Jason Schwartzman, and RZA.
