"She’s Out of My League" Movie Trailer Review--Jay Baruchel Takes Centerstage

By our guest blogger, Matt Jussim

I’ve been a fan of Jay Baruchel since I saw the vastly underrated television show “Undeclared.” It was great to see him have hilarious supporting roles in “Knocked Up” and “Tropic Thunder,” but I also was waiting for him to take top billing in a movie.

Some other people agreed, and we now have Baruchel starring a film all his own, “She's Out of My League.” The movie centers on Kirk (Baruchel), an average-looking guy who lands a ridiculously attractive girlfriend named Molly.

Not only is Kirk stunned by this development, but so are his friends and family. Everyone is in complete disbelief that someone of her caliber would want to date him. With that cloud of doubt constantly over his head, he must stay on his toes to make the relationship work, because he knows she’s totally out of his league.

The first trailer has been released for the film and while the name and plot may make it seem like a run-of-the-mill romantic comedy, this film looks to be very, very funny.

The line, “Are you a plane doctor?” had me laughing out loud, and the writers get a plus for having Kirk work as an airport security guard. I have a family member who works at an airport and I always thought that setting, if used in the right way, would be hilarious.

I am really looking forward to this movie--it’s a great concept in the manner they’re doing it and Baruchel pulls off the lovable loser as good as anyone.

Along with Baruchel, the film stars Alice Eve, Mike Vogel, Debra Jo Rupp and Krysten Ritter.

“She's Out of My League” hits theaters on March 12, 2010.
