Peter Klaven is an estate agent in Los Angeles who has always had girlfriends and never had guy friends. He proposes to Zooey, she says yes, and her friends ask who his best man will be. There is nobody. His brother, who is gay, coaches him on meeting men. He goes on man-dates. They go badly. Then at an open house for Lou Ferrigno’s mansion he meets Sydney Fife. I Love You, Man is a romantic comedy where the romance is a friendship, and Paul Rudd and Jason Segel are the couple.
What Happens With Sydney
Sydney lives in a man cave in Venice with a jam room and Rush on repeat. He has no filter. Peter, who speaks in nicknames he cannot finish, slowly loosens up. They jam to Tom Sawyer. They go to a Rush concert with Zooey, who watches two grown men air-drum. Sydney borrows money for a billboard. Peter’s engagement starts to suffer from him having a best friend for the first time, and the wedding is where it is resolved, with Rush.
Why Rudd And Segel Are The Reason
“Slappin’ da bass.” “Totally, totes magotes.” Rudd’s Peter trying to be casual is one of the great awkward performances. Segel’s Sydney is the id. Rashida Jones is a fiancee who is an actual person. Jon Favreau is the husband who hates Peter. Lou Ferrigno plays himself and puts Sydney in a sleeper hold. Rush appear.
