Review of Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star (2011) by David F — 08 Sep 2011

At the time of this writing, it appears as if 100% of the film critics who took the time to review Bucky Larson completely and utterly lack a sense of humor. Zero critics enjoyed this movie? Zero? Really? If you're a 'happier than normal' person, don't let the 0% Critics' rating frighten you away from seeing this movie. Critics aren't my favorite people. The tend to be disappointed a lot. I tend to appreciate honest reviewer's insights instead. Hopefully you agree.

My wife and I laughed out loud many times and smiled nearly all the way through this film. It's a comedy. We both enjoy Happy Madison productions and only wish we could befriend Sandler and his entire crew. Our days would be filled with more laughter than they already are...

Let's get to the short of it... if you laughed at the scene in Grandma's Boy "I can't stop coming. It feels so good!," chances are... you'll love Bucky Larson. Ejaculation and facial contortions spawned from those moments of release are abundant in this film. Nick Swardson kills me and his character Bucky doesn't disappoint. He's one of my favorite comedians and comedic actors. Just the sight of him makes me smile. Watching his version of the "Oh" face made me laugh out loud.

Bucky Larson is chock full of sophomoric humor, nudity and yes, "swill" as some say. I guess to some, just mentioning porn equates to swill. So what? Who cares?. I like my porn and I like my comedy. Both offer relief. Nick Swardson truly delivers the funny throughout the film, but especially during his 'new experience' and climactic moments. Kevin Nealon plays the perfect nightmare roommate. He is a funny, funny man. Christina Ricci is endearing and sweet. Don Johnson's character is an anomaly in the porn industry; known as Miles Deep, a director with integrity and the ability to recognize a very tiny diamond in the rough (bush).

Is Buck Larson the funniest movie of all time? No, but it's definitely worth the price of admission. If you're a fan of Happy Madison productions. Chances are, you'll like the film. To you critics with nothing nice to say... seemingly ever... did you really think you were going to see a mature, though provoking comedy? Huh? Did-ja?
