The humor gets raunchy enough to earn the "R" rating, but in some ways, it's pretty tame, especially in the wake of "The Hangover."
There's plenty of gross-out humor and lots of sex jokes, some of them absurd, some really funny. But what elevates She's Out of My League - it doesn't turn a 5 into a 10, but it helps - is heart, of which its characters have a surprising plenty.

I loved this movie. It was so funny and incredibly sweet. One of the best romantic comedies I have ever seen. The leads played by Jay Baruchel and Alice Eve had amazing chemistry Eve's sweetness and hotness were an unbelievably heady mix. The man-pals were hilarious, especially Miller's character, Stainer. The song, She's So High Above Me, that played in the background during a 'date' montage was the perfect choice. Will watch this movie again and again.

Jim Field Smith's directorial debut "She's out of My League" is a conventional rom-com that lifts it from the pits of rom-com hell by the amazing humor, charm, and lowbrow wit of its script and of its characters (most especially T.J. Miller as Stainer). "She's out of My League" is the kind of comedy that hits hard than lets you relax than hits you hard again than lets you enjoy the rest of the ride without being smack over the head all the time with vulgar and immature behavior. On the part of Kirk's friends however, this movie is very insightful into the life of an utter and complete loser (much like I use to be). Who by luck or an act of God ends up with a gorgeous and voluptuous blonde-haired woman (every man's dream, don't deny it). What makes this film so good and so much fun to watch is that you are not routing for a guy who can bag gorgeous babes. You are routing for a loser who has just bagged his first gorgeous babe in his entire life that is why you are routing for him. You want Kirk and Molly to be together you want them to do something romantic like drive off into the sunset or fly off into the sunset, or walk towards a sunset oh hell I just want them to walk towards something luminous setting in the distance. I don't know why it just seems it would fit with this films theme of finding love in strange places and looks do not really matter. Kirk is like my best friend Nathan mixed with allot of me to make one very shy, nervous, apologetic little man you like Kirk from the very start and form the very start you also hate his friends who vast knowledge of women is easily a 1.1 on the female knowledge scale and that's if you add up all three of theses ignorant fools theses dung sacks wouldn't know a good women if she walked up to one of them and **** slapped them square across the face It's very sad so sad is the fact that one of them is married and still and some comes out a bigger loser than Kirk was in the beginning(Nate Torrence as Devon). The main point of this movie is love cannot be determine by what number you are or by what you look like, in my opinion, is the truest statement of love. Love is fair, love is unfair, and love is tough. Love is soft love is many things. However, rarely if ever is love judgmental or unforgiving. That is the message that this film is trying to get across and thanks to careful writing, solid performances from the cast of talented actors and sly direction "She's out of my League" is not only one of the best comedies of the year but also one of the sweetest films of the year. Even if at some points, it does not seem that way. I loved this movie I loved everything about this movie even the vulgarity and immature behavior of Kirk's friends they grow on you and there not much different from my own friends so I am use to there behavior. This is such a heartfelt film even if it masked with constant vulgarity and cartoonishness the heart of this film shines through the grit and the grim and glows brightly. "She's out of my League" is one of the most hilarious comedies I have seen since "I, Love you Man" and in the ways of comedy it takes allot to make me laugh I am very picky about my comedy I hate almost all of Adam Sandlerâ

She's Out of My League essentially plays its central premise straight, although the film does find time to veer into gross-out humor.
Plausibility aside, the key to making the scenario work is comedy. Much can be forgiven if it delivers enough laughs. That's the main problem here. It's short on clever humor and big on convention and formula.
There are a few sensitive scenes, but it’s the big blasts of raunchy that deliver its laughs.
The only memorable aspect of She's Out of My League is Eve's performance. Not that it's good, but it does possess the hypnotic quality of a flicker ring.
Would like to think of itself as an extension of its lead character -- gangly, a bit uncouth, but ultimately sweet. Unfortunately, it's more like the best friend in a movie like this -- irritating, unfunny and something that hangs around longer than it should.
Very good, sweet, and funny movie. The characters were all great and quirky, and were really funny when put together. Perhaps many of the elements have been used before in other movies but everything fit together great, this movie was just fun. It is an easy movie to relate to in one way or another which is what makes it so funny at times, I had a smile on my face through most of the movie and busted out laughing at several parts. If you want to see a movie that leaves you with a smile on your face because you were pleasantly surprised, watch it!

I gave the film a 6 because the writing is pretty funny and there are some good laugh out moments, but it's one of the most unrealistic film I've ever seen. Just a shameless male fantasy marketed at sad gits who dream about being able to bag a perfect woman through the sheer force of personality alone. A very safe comedy that doesn't push any boundaries. I switched it off because it became so painfully predictable.

Just saw this film and i can't that it is so bad. It is an usual american comedy with happy ending and so and so which such films are too boring. This one had some funny moments and some characters were really well done and impressed me. I laughed but it's a film for an afternoon if you don't have anything else to do.

The writers of this movie seem to be playing a game of how uncomfortable can we make our viewers. It was hard to watch except for the rare funny joke or two.
