Five long years after his last feature (which saw him switching lanes from narrative comedy to documentary), Apatow makes a triumphant return with his latest dramedy, The King of Staten Island. This "semi-biographical" take on actor and co-screenwriter Pete Davidson's life, who lost his firefighter father during the September 11 attacks and has had his own battles with depression, is Apatow’s most affecting film since 2009’s Funny People, and its powerful blend of humor and heart should win over just about everyone.
