Sidney Young, a smalltime, bumbling, British celebrity journalist, is hired by an upscale magazine in New York City.

In spectacular fashion Sidney enters high society and burns bridges with bosses, peers and superstars.

After disrupting one black-tie event by allowing a wild pig to run rampant, Sidney catches the attention of Clayton Harding, editor of Sharp, and accepts a job with the magazine in New York City.

Clayton warns Sidney that he’d better impress and charm everyone he can, if he wants to succeed.

Instead, Sidney instantly insults and annoys fellow writer Alison Olsen.

He dares to target the star clients of power publicist Eleanor Johnson.

He upsets his direct boss Lawrence Maddox and tries to make amends by hiring a stripper to dance for Lawrence during a staff meeting.

Sidney, of course, doesn’t stop there, finding creative ways to annoy nearly everyone.

His saving graces: a rising, sexy starlet develops an odd affection for him, and in time, Alison whose friendship with him might be the only thing saving Sidney from torpedoing his career.

Star(s) to watch : Megan Fox (”Transformers”) as Sophie Maes, Simon Pegg (”Shaun of the Dead”, “Hot Fuzz”, “Mission: Impossible III”) as Sidney Young, Gillian Anderson (”The X-Files”) as Eleanor Johnson, & Kirsten Dunst (”Spider-Man”, “Jumanji”, “Small Soldiers”) as Alison Olsen.

Genre : Comedy, Drama, Adaptation.

Release date : October 3, 2008

Fact : Based on source material from novel “How to Lose Friends and Alienate People” by Toby Young.

Note : Even if the film version of Toby Young’s memoir turns out to be a dud, it’ll still be one of the best comedy of the year. Robert Weide helms the big screen adaptation of Young’s story and “Shaun of the Dead” and “Hot Fuzz” star Simon Pegg tackles the lead role. This one could be the surprise hit of the year.

Rating : Coming soon.

Tagline : “He’s across the pond and out of his depth”
