2008 – 3.7/5
To be honest, I’m not a huge fan of Kevin Smith movies but I do appreciate what he does. This was a movie like no other. The storyline was very unique: 2 lifelong friends, Zack (Rogen) and Miri (Banks) decide to make a porno movie to make money in order to make ends meet. Their relationship has always been platonic, so it’s obvious that there will be a certain level of awkwardness. There are several times in this movie that gets really raunchy and vulgar, but it was tasteful.
It was a funny movie and Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks make a good pair; they were defiantly my favourite characters. Every one else held their own as well. Each character had their own persona and dialogue that suited them. I thought the screenplay was solid.
Brandon Long had a good cameo, and his part was very funny – 2 of my favourite lines came from the high school reunion scene (Miri: No, don’t just thank me, fuck me! / Zach: They fight just like real people).
