Zack and Miri Make a Porno [Movie Review]

Kevin Smith’s latest comedy, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, takes a seemingly formulaic plotline, mixes it with the adult film industry, and creates a laugh-out-loud comedy.

After many of the jokes, the roar of the audience was so loud it completely blanketed the sound of the film. The film owes its comedic success to good casting, and great dialogue.

With Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks in the leads, Smith managed to blend the comedic styles of Rogen and other Judd Apatow success stories featured in the film, with his own blend of humor.

The plotline is solid but predictable as far as the romantic storyline between Rogen and Banks goes, but it does not detract from the hilarious scenes this foul-mouthed comedy has to offer. The story may not keep you at the edge of your seat, but the dialogue will have you falling out of it.
