Man, that was a loooong-ass movie. Too long for me. I stopped caring after the bar scene with some funny people.
I loved the cameos. All of them. I would’ve liked it more if 75% of the movie was just those cameo people doing stand-up comedy a la The Original Kings of Comedy. If it was Norm Macdonald ranting about cheeseburgers for an hour and a half, I would declare this the greatest movie of all time. OF ALL TIME! Sadly, it’s just Apatow with a great idea and an uneven execution.
It had its truly funny and touching moments, sure. But for people with short attention spans like me, it could’ve been a lot shorter.

Earlier Judd Apatow movies were OK. But the more popular he gets, the longer his movies get, and the less I care about them.
