Review of Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) by Daniel P — 08 May 2012

Endearing but corny, it's standard Kevin Smith fare. Goofy and disgusting things happen the whole way through, but the characters are likeable and the laughs are decent. What might have been most interesting about this movie was the deconstructing of porno that it slipped into from time to time.

I don't think it was Smith's intention, but there were enough wink and nod moments about porno in society and "as a genre" (is it a genre... anyway...) that it could almost pass for a clever movie.

Oh, wait, no, somebody ends up with his face covered in feces... standard Kevin Smith fare after all. Fun, though.
