The Five-Year Engagement: Middle East chuckles

The line from the Jason Segel/Emily Blunt rom com The Five-Year Engagement is not that funny (neither is the movie, but it's a nice way to spend part of an afternoon all the same), but at Grand Cinemas in Abu Dhabi Mall Friday afternoon it got a big laugh from the ladies behind me all the same. Segel, who plays a chef, is having a heated discussion on a mobile with Blunt's character while standing in a restaurant kitchen: "It's too hot in here," he explains. "It's why they are always fighting in the Middle East."
