ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
lcthatch-29478 I've seen this movie several times and it still makes me laugh. Kevin Smith writes great dialogue that is funny and uses the jokes with the swearing and stuff well and not over the top. Is internet references in this movie well considering that time that the movie was created. Great idea bring former porn stars in the cast. All in all I think it's a fun movie and it's a shame that it wasn't a box office hit for him but as with many of his movies he's ahead of his time. As far as movies go outside the view askew universe I would say that this is probably one of his best. It has all the elements of a good Kevin Smith movie references comic books Star Wars and good humor.One more thing to add the end credits bet is absolutely hilarious
Icarus Alexander Ah the good ole days. Kevin's strength is his dialogue. A very funny, laugh out loud, politically incorrect movie. Two people just talking without censors. Death to censorship! Come on Kevin make more of these gems!
marlenabubendorfer This formulaic movie starts out as a light comedy but soon descends into a long, boring analysis of relationships, a bit like the disappointing 'Chef'. Two friends decide to have sex for the sake of making a porno, but surprise, surprise, find this alters the dynamic of their friendship. The idea was to become friends with (business) benefits, but instead they become more like a couple of jealous 16 year olds. At this stage any normal male would be lost as the film enters non-comedic, juvenile chick-flick territory. As for the movie being 'dirty', if you like loads of excrement then yes, its 'dirty.' In fact the overall message of the movie is anti-pornography, so if you're looking for titillation, look elsewhere.
Prismark10 Director Kevin Smith makes a slacker buddy porn comedy in Zack and Miri make a Porno. Zack and Miri are good friends living in a run down flat and not having enough money to pay the rent and bills and decide to make a porn film to roll in the cash, an idea they got after they met a former school friend at a High School reunion who revealed he was a gay porn star.Smith makes the film rude and crude but deep inside is a sweet love story as Zack and Miri find out that they have a romantic tingling for each other which is more than just sex for the camera.The film is amusing enough helped by the good chemistry between Elizabeth Banks and Seth Rogen although the film is prudish showing nude scenes with Banks. Craig Robinson provides amusing support. There are enough pop culture references and Smith regulars popping up to keep his fans happy.
