Pegg has had a few hits in the past few years, starting with "Shaun Of
The Dead" in 2004, movie on to "Hot Fuzz 2007", early 2008 he came out
with "Run Fat Boy Run" and now comes this, "How To Lose Friends And
Alienate People" which is in many ways one of my favourite comedy's of
the year.

The film is about Sidney Yound, a man who writes a failing magazine who
makes fun of celebrity's mostly because he is not one of them. Anyway,
one of the most successful magazine owners (Played By Jeff Bridges)
invites him (Out of nostalgia) to work at his magazine. Sidney is of
course excited and moves to America, there he meets a girl currently
writing a book, and hilarity ensues.

This film is great and I hope more come out like it in the near future.
Pegg has once again given people everywhere another good film and I
cant wait to the see the third part of the blood and ice cream trilogy
"Paul". I Rate this film 81%.
