Zack & Miri Make a Porno is a pretty typical Kevin Smith film. Vulgar, hysterical. Then it gets a little weird when things get "serious". Whenever that part comes up I'm always like, "OK, come on, back to the balls please." And luckily, he always goes back to the balls. I also oddly loved the production values in the movie - it really made you feel like you were poor and in Pittsburgh in the middle of winter. Not glamorous in the least.
There were a couple "shocking" moments, though honestly I didn't find them too shocking, I just found them funny. Surprise, right?
Even though the "serious" maybe-they're-falling-in-love bits are a little cringe-worthy, the movie is funny enough to make them worth it.
I'm so glad Role Models was funny. I remember first seeing the trailer and fearing it was going to be a warm-hearted, feel-good film. And I was like, What are Stifler and Paul Rudd doing in this movie? Then I found out it was Rated R. Oh thank god!
It's still cute, but not at all cutesy. Bobb'e J. Thompson is a god among child actors, truly. He's funny and curses up a storm and I just want to smack and then hug that kid. And I love Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott in anything they do - they were great here.

I laugh every time I see the commercial for Role Models. We'll see it on video for sure!
