Zack and Miri Make a Porno

Overview of the Story:
Lifelong friends and roommates Zack (Seth Rogen) and Miri (Elizabeth Banks) are facing hard times and a mountain of debt. When the electricity and plumbing get cut off, they seize upon the idea of making a homegrown porno movie for some quick cash, enlisting the help of their friends. The two vow that having sex will not ruin their friendship. But as filming begins, what started out as a business proposition between friends turns into something much more. (www.zackandmiri.com)

Overall Opinion:
Rae: Well, I might be a little biased based on the fact that I completely love Kevin Smith movies, so I obviously thought this one was great! The movie started off hilarious and continued to be so for the majority of the rest of it. As it usually happens with this type of movie, however, it got a little slower towards the end. An acceptable trait however. I was also more a fan of the supporting characters than of the main characters. They brought so much depth and diversification to the movie making it all that much more entertaining to watch. It is definitely worth going to see!


Jen: If you like Crude Comedy with an interesting plot this movie is for you. Its not Kevin Smith's Best comedy but its definatly a good one to see. I loved the Mac Guy!! he was so good in this movie! Also Loved Darrell from the Office's Character! they Both made the movie! The first half is hilarious, once they start adding in a little love story and the movie is coming to a closure, it turns a little downhill. Overall it really is funny, I would say its one of the top comedies of the year, definatly of the season.
