She's Out of My League is actually a hilarious movie.
I really had zero expectations for it, since it looked like just another American Pie type comedy, but Jay Baruchel is such a likable dude. I love him in everything he's in, and he was great in this. His two friends in the film, Stainer and Devon, played by T.J. Miller and Nate Torrence, were hilarious counterparts to Baruchel's hopeless Kirk.
Don't get me wrong, there were some seriously cheesy and misplaced dramatic falling in love scenes, complete with out of place lame 90s songs, but the funny parts out-weighed the lame ones. Also, the girl was just far too fabricated. Like I said, the scenes with Kirk, Stainer, and Devon make the whole film.
And the scene with the Hall and Oates cover band is still making me laugh just thinking about it.
If you passed this up thinking it would be totally average like I did, go out and rent it and prove yourself wrong. This was just another case of horrible advertising that kept this little comedy hidden.
