So Peter has decided to find himself a friend. Robbie, a trainer at a local gym, tries to set him up with some potential friends like squeaky-voiced Lonnie (Jo Lo Truglio), but that doesn't work too well. Then his mom, Joyce (Jane Curtin), sets him up with a friend's son who is new to town, Doug (Thomas Lennon), but this ends in a really awkward lip-lock and this is definitely not what Peter wants. Finally, Zooey's friend Denise (Jaime Pressley) tries to get Peter in with her husband's poker group, but this ends poorly when Peter wins big at the table, but projectile vomits on Denise's husband, Barry (Jon Favreau) and gets tossed out. To complicate matters, Peter is trying really hard to sell Lou Ferrigno's house and make a huge commission so he can buy that property he dreams of, but his pushy co-worker, Tevin Downey (Rob Huebel) is trying to horn in on the deal.
When Peter gives an open house at Hulk Manor, he meets Sidney Fife (Jason Segal), a charming investments guy who trolls for divorcees at open houses. Peter is the king of awkward, but he and Sidney hit it off and they eventually become friends. Zooey and her friends, Denise and Hailey (Sarah Burns), couldn't be happier with Peter and Sid's "bromance," and it looks like a best man might be in sight. Sid even tries to help out with getting "the Ferrig's" house to sell, this coming after he gets into a pitiful physical battle with Lou. But soon Zooey starts to feel left out and things go downhill. Can they all kiss and make up before the wedding?
This movie is absolutely hysterical. Yes, it's got plenty of raunchy moments (but no nudity), but you will laugh so hard your face will hurt. Paul Rudd has an unassuming way of making every situation awkward and his comic timing is genius. Jason Segal is puppy dog cute and is the perfect pairing to Rudd's straight man comedy. Rashida Jones is absolutely precious and even Andy Samburg and J.K. Simmons, with their relatively small roles, absolutely shine. Special features are plentiful and keep the fun going. There are extended and deleted scenes, a gag reel, commentary and a making-of and a bevy of "extras" which are extended mixes of pivotal scenes where the actors ad lib and you see all of the iterations of what could have been said. It's great stuff and my favorite of the features. All I can say is that if you are not easily offended by off-the-cuff discussions of a sexual nature and like any of the actors in this movie, you will not be disappointed. This is truly funny stuff.
