Someone Marry Barry

source: Someone Marry Barry

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. I'm not a big fan of either Tyler Labine or Lucy Hall, but they do quite a bit of heavy lifting in this, and it's not that they don't do a good job, but if you don't like them, you're not going to like this. The other "sane" characters are really more of a background set for the events of Barry's rom-com, allowing a structure of motivations and weird adversarial obstacles. If you like Labine and / or Hall, then check this out, I think you'll be delightfully surprised.

In my opinion,good comedy films are become less and less frequent. In the case of 'Someone Marry Barry',this is completely not the case. This film has more of an original idea for a comedy film,unlike many comedies you come across nowadays.It has you laughing pretty much all the way throughout the film,and I admit there were certain parts of the film I found so funny I rewound the scene more than once. (e.g. the scene in the car,on the way to the cabin) I won't say any more, in case people have not seen this. This film is surprisingly funny,as most of the cast I do not usual find that funny,besides the main role of Barry played by Tyler Labine, and the other main role of Melanie played by Lucy Punch. These two are fantastic together!The humor in this film is also so different to your average comedy. It is, in fact a very crude film, and goes beyond the boundaries of appropriate. It is so wrong, that it's so right,which makes this film what it is.Absolutely hilarious,worth a watch.And I would definitely watch this again.

What can you say about this film other than , "why was it panned by the Academy Awards?" This film is stupidly funny, especially if you're a Barry yourself. My wife and I laughed our fool heads off. Besides...when did fart scenes get labelled as in bad taste?

There are no mass actors in this film yet fulfills with the quality of the A list movies. What a wonderful launch pad for an aspiring filmmaker. He wrote it, as well handled everything and everyone carefully. In the name of comedy, he did not go lousy, like most of the B movies do. One of the best main roles ever it was for Lucy Punch in her entire career as far my observation and she outclassed it. Daman Wayans also having a good time recently with movies like 'Let's be Cops', 'Big Hero 6' and this. Certainly his career graph mounting like any actor dreamt for. Very similar storyline to the movie 'Let's Kill Ward's Wife', but instead 'kill', it replaced with the word 'marry'. Yep, Barry is the character in the movie who is very annoying, so his best buddies plan to set up with a woman to get rid of him. The title character Barry was the most important in the movie and it went to the right person to play. I know him barely, seen in a couple of films and again he was splendid with a casual performance. I am pretty much sure, the sequel is on the card. It will be a double trouble for Barry's buddies, but all my concern is the filmmakers don't want to mess it up like 'Horrible Bosses 2'. So hilarious, even though, consider it is not a so popular flick. Worry is people will miss this enjoyable movie due to the unaware of its existence. That's the reason I review not-so-popular-good-movie on the regular basis. In my opinion, disappointment is not on the card. Believe me, the movie might not be a good as I am stating, but definitely not a bad one. So in the end, it's up to the collective of the individual's statement that decides the fate of a movie which involves yours as well. 7/10

Tyler Labine is Barry, the really annoying pal to Desmond, Rafe, and Kurt (Wayans Junior, MacArthur, and Middleditch). This movie is and will be exactly what you expect. Hayes MacArthur sounds just like Michael Keaton. So the friends decide to hook Barry up with someone. Anyone. They try dating services. They try marrying euro-women. Lots of swearing! And when he meets a chick just as tacky and rude as he is, it's love at first sight! Lucy Punch is Melanie, who can dish it out as well as Barry! So the gang all goes off on a weekend getaway. And it all blows up. Can the friends all recover, as they go through their various personal issues? Its corny. And okay. It's a cross between an adam sandler and a bachelor party in vegas. Written and directed by Rob Pearlstein. This appears to be his first full length film directed. He was nominated for best short film in 2006.

You know that embarrassingly juvenile friend you can not shake? Magnify him by a thousand and you get Barry. His three friends can not take it anymore and think if he just found someone then they could be rid of him. And that's how you get: Someone Marry Barry. It's not that Desmond, Rafe and Kurt hate Barry. They just don't want to be active friends with him anymore. Their camp mate friendship with the 'inappropriate dude' from elementary school doesn't justify a friendship that should have faded away long ago. Barry is not necessarily a bad guy, he is just an embarrassment, a detriment to their livelihood and reputations, a social wrecking ball. Tyler Labine is pivotal to the success of this movie, his likability makes Barry's antics not completely intolerable and at times endearingly oblivious. Labine plays the crudest, lewdest, bluntest character imaginable but the film isn't at all cheap or grotesque. His friends, played by Wayans, MacArthur, Middleditch. are not malicious and the search for Barry's mate comes from a place of desperation and love; keeping the film light and entertaining. Damon Wayans Jr. is the comedic star of the trio and I can't wait to watch his career progress. All plot points and scenarios are sufficiently ridiculous for a comedy but written by Rob Pearlstein to be cohesive with the story. Someone Marry Barry is about a crass man meeting his equal and opposite in a mate so the humor is offensive and perverted by nature. After Barry meets his love interest Mel, played by Lucy Punch, the film slows down significantly. The main source of entertainment and humor, the friend dynamic and their interaction, changes with the addition of Mel and 'find him love' dilemma removal. Someone Marry Barry is a unique and refreshingly light comedy but is not for everyone. More reviews at our website!

We have all known this person, the kind that just doesn't care less about what anyone else thinks....even though the humor is way nasty at times we couldn't help laughing our heads off throughout the entire flick....of course while we were enjoying the laughter the high level grossness was also making us shake our heads, scrunch our noses think EEEWWWWWWWWW!! All while actually saying out loud OMFG!! Definitely worth seeing if you have the stomach for things like this....would def stay away from kids and farrrr away from any kind of first dates or newer relationships unless crude humor is the type of comedies someone one has particularly shown an interest in....Enjoy!!

Tyler Labine has always been a hot spot for me…hot, so very hot…so, frankly, even in his worst movies, he still brings a charm of someone who wants to be there, does his best and always entertains me. Add his charisma and undeniable likability and humor, the always wonderful Damon Wayans Jr (whom I've loved since the criminally cut short Happy Endings show) and the very funny Thomas Middleditch, you have one cute movie. Completely predictable and clichéd, the crude to a fault Someone Marry Barry is still hilarious at points and has solid performances all-around. It's not trying to be anything it's not and never takes itself too seriously, even when it veers into familiar, sitcom-gone-dramatic territory. For fans of both THAT ANNOYING FRIEND genre and Tyler Labine films, you'll sink in and enjoy your stay-at-home-movie-night.

Great Comedy, which i s'pose would be categorised as a romantic comedy. However the romance side is out weighed by the comedic side for sure. The Lead roles work together beautifully, believable, and more importantly funny together. I first saw Tyler Labine in the series 'Sons of Tucson', which then lead me to 'Tucker and Dale'. When I saw his name pop up in the description, I new that I would like it. He did a great job as Barry in this movie and I am looking forward to seeing him in 'DeadBeat'. Lucy Punch is as equally inappropriate, crass and FUNNY, as her male lead. Her British accent, to me, made things more amusing. Damon Wayans Jr. is another great addition, as well as a nice cameo from Ed Helms. Don't get me wrong, this IS a crass and crude comedy in parts, romantic comedy in parts, but on the whole, a great movie. I enjoy the style of comedy in these movies, and this was no different. There were many laugh out loud moments and one particular scene where I admit I was in tears. So do yourself a favor, if you enjoy unexpected, un 'hyped' comedies, check this one out. Ya Twunts
