This was...interesting. It is more of a heartwarming movie than being a straight-up comedy. Seth Rogen left his usual raunchiness to try something different. Maybe one of his best performances ever. The story was quite original (which is a great thing in the current film-making era). Although at times the script did become nonsensical and over the top, this was an alright way to kill 90 minutes. _Added to List: 2020 Releases Ranked_

The movie sets off with a really distinguished and intriguing look at the 1920s which I very much liked, but then transcends into a somewhat-basic new age comedy with the cliche "fish out of water" storyline. It does manage to get in a few laughs and sets a nice heart-warming message about family.

Mediocre stuff. Probably the worst Seth Rogen movie I have seen.

I watched this movie with a mate with the idea in mind that we could make fun of it. Judging by the description, the concept is dumb as shit, but that's to be expected of Seth Rogen. However, I was actually pleasantly surprised how invested I got with it and its characters. This would be a one time watch and worth the time, don't think I'd rewatch it though.

'An American Pickle' feels like a film with so much potential, but potential that is never fully embraced. It isn't the job of a reviewer to say what a film SHOULD have been, but to offer a critique of the film they're actually seeing. In that spirit, the problem with 'An American Pickle' is that th More

it is the trailer first caught me, I love the idea of an outdated man being overwhelmed by the modern world and struggle to adjust for nowadays life crises. the world must be so bizarre in his eyes but still much better than one hundred years ago (since we had made a long way).

....and I found th More

This movie stars Seth Rogen in a dual role as Herschel, an early 20th century Eastern European Jewish immigrant, and Ben, his last remaining descendant. To paraphrase a Family Guy episode, Seth Rogen looks funny even when he's not doing anything funny. Why, then, is An American Pickle, so unfunny (I More
