Day 239 of the challenge! Zack and Miri Make a Porno for today. Another basic romcom, just wrapped in a weird wrapper.
Liked:
Have crushes on both Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks, so seeing them together in the same movie was a treat.
Didn't like:
Don't get me wrong, I love a good gut busting raunchy comedy, but like with most of Kevin Smith's shock driven comedies, Zack and Miri just fell flat for me. Gross out humor and shock value can only go so far on it's own. All of the comedy in this flick is low hanging fruit, easy but flavorless (and you can imagine what kind of low hanging fruit a comedy about porn has). Throw in it's painfully basic romcom plot, and you end up with a flick that at best is watchable for Rogen and Banks. Their likability and charm are the only good aspects of this movie.
