Forgetting Sarah Marshall

This is the movie I watch when I need a pick me up for several reasons:

• All the funny side characters like Paul Rudd/Kunu as the surfing instructor who's always high, Jonah Hill obsessing over Aldous Snow, the bartender, the Christian couple, etc. Each character has memorable scenes or one-liners: "When life gives you lemons, just say fuck the lemons and bail"
• Hawaii brings a comforting, relaxing setting for the movie, like you're on vacation
• Mila Kunis + Kristen Bell (who has a banging bod in this film) bring some nice eye candy

Backed up with a solid Rom Com plot of Peter going through the stages of a breakup and the movie doing a good job of showing it.

One of my favorite bits is how the flashback scenes of Kristen Bell start off as only remembering the good memories in the relationship as Peter comes fresh from the break up but after sobering up and slowly moving on he starts to remember the bad memories too.
