"Trainwreck" - Review



"Trainwreck" is the latest film by Judd Apatow, the director /producer of such hit films and personal favorites as "Bridesmaids", "Knocked Up", "This is 40", "Wanderlust", "Step Brothers", "The 40 Year Old Virgin", "Anchorman", "Pineapple Express", etc,. This is another hilarious Apatow film, and this one is basically all about Amy Shumer being a slut. It also features other funny actors like, Bill Hader, Brie Larson (who I'm in love with), Colin Quinn, Tim Meadows, Dave Attell, Method Man, John Cena and famous athletes Lebron James and Amar'e Stoudemire starring as themselves.

Bill Hader plays his first serious role as a doctor that specializes in sports injuries, and Amy Shumer plays a writer for "SNUFF Magazine" where she is assigned to write an article about this doctor to pro-athletes. He makes an unlikely couple with the drunk, sarcastic, mean, and potty-mouthed Amy Shumer. Amy realizes she must change her lifestyle and attitude to make it work with Bill Hader's character. Like I said in the preview - I'm not a fan of Amy Shumer, but Judd Apatow is incapable of making a bad movie, and this is yet another great example of that. Some critics said it was like watching a soft-core porn due to all the graphic sex-scenes in the movie, but I give "Trainwreck" a  7 /10.
