Three sentence movie reviews--Zach and Miri Make a Porno


I think that, in between his hugely successful movies, Kevin Smith has a lot of free time on his hands and there is much sitting around thinking thoughts like, "What if I made a romantic comedy about two friends making porn?" Illegal substances may be involved, though Smith strikes me as someone a little too uptight to indulge. This was middle of the road Kevin Smith fare, with a lot of raunch, a few disgusting scenes and more evidence that under all his adolescent humor, he is really a squishy romantic at heart.

  1. This is DEFINITELY a NFS movie. I won't even consider it. I am glad to know, by your review, that I am right to ignore it! -S

  2. I just came back from seeing it. It was sophomoric humor..which explains the number of times I cracked up.

    And since the last Seth Rogen movie I saw was "Pineapple Express" I was very glad no one got shot.
    And I got a little distracted looking at all the hand-knitted scarves, a detail from the fact that the Miri character works at a yarn shop.
