By Landon Palmer With Funny People, Apatow avoids these criticisms altogether by finally making a movie that doesn’t conform itself to this repeated, and even exhausted, narrative approach, instead choosing to give a rare backstage look into the nature of comedy and what it is like to be a funny person.

The film is a different kind of comedy than the Will Ferrell stuff. Ferrell's comedy films (which I enjoy) are more pure slapstick. You know what I mean... the "Honk honk" clown comedy.
