Get Him to the Greek

This was one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. It was so good that in 2010 when it was released into theaters I went to see it TWICE! Get Him to the Greek starts out in Los Angeles where record company intern Aaron (Jonah Hill) lives with his ER nurse girlfriend Daphne (Elizabeth Moss). The movie picks up when Aaron makes a suggestion that could possibly turn around the record company's recent slump. Aaron suggests to the record company owner, Sergio (Sean Combs), that resurrecting the great Aldous Snow's (Russel Brand) career could do just that. Sergio give Aaron the chance of a lifetime, to meet his favourite childhood rock star and also save his record company in the process. Aaron is told he must get Aldous from London to The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles in 3 days, a task seemingly very simple. What Aaron will find out is that Aldous has no intention to sticking to anyone's schedule but his own and his out-of-control behaviour may prove too much for Aaron to handle. Aldous developed a huge drug problem after his career and love life both went down in flames simultaneously which will prove to test Aaron to his wits end as he is manipulated and taken for granted. All that is on Aaron's mind is getting to the venue and having Aldous play without a hitch but the disgruntled singer does almost everything in this power to make Aaron's job next to impossible.

Get Him to the Greek has non-stop laugh throughout the movie with crazy antics that Aldous brings upon them both in his search for drugs and tail.
