If only he...
Got rid of the last act of the film revolving around Leslie Mann and the family. It really came out of nowhere and took it in a completely different direction which really dragged it on. I really think this movie would've been 100x better if it solely focused on the relationship between struggling comedian and the veteran. Even though I still enjoy Funny People, I think the film has a lot of missed potential to be great.
Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the war room!
