Why people love it

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008) stuck because it commits to its comedy premise without apologizing—viewers remember set pieces and momentum as much as plot. Nicholas Stoller's control of tone keeps the ride coherent. The comedy and romance blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
