PAUL

I like Simon Pegg but I don't like the films he writes.  There never seems to be enough material to fill an entire movie.  There's always lots of filler.

It's a shame, too because he always comes up with such likeable characters.

Seth Rogen does an excellent job here with the voice work.  He makes Paul come alive with his line readings.

Kristen Wiig can do no wrong in my eyes.  Again though, I just wish there was more for her to do in this film.  Strictly a one-note character.

Might have miscast with Justin Bateman though.  He doesn't pull off a steely-eyed agent intent on completing his mission.

I found the film boring for long stretches.  Ultimately, I wouldn't recommend it.
