I had a lot of fun with this movie. The absence of Edgar Wright's direction is DEFINITELY felt, but it still feels like a genuine Pegg/Frost project and director Greg Mottola does a decent enough job filling Wright's shoes. I feel they played a little TOO fast and loose with all the references at times where Wright probably would have toned it down, but its still a really fun and funny time. If you're a sci-fi fan or a fan of Pegg and Frost's other movies, seeing this should be a no brainer. Highly recommended and much better than expected.

But I still hate Seth Rogen.

I'm not sure I want to see this movie. I love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost to death, but the movie has Seth Rogen in it, and I cannot stand the douche (as I have said many times).
