Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) Review

if the title alone makes you laugh then watch this goddamn movie! if you like Kevin Smith, THEN WATCH THIS MOVIE! if you like Seth Rogan THEN WATCH THIS MOVIE! the funniest movie of 2008 for me, hands down, is Zack and Miri. the name lives up as yes, there are naked chicks in the movie and Jason Mewes (better known as Jay to most people) lets it, literally, all hang out! Seth Rogan and Elizabeth Banks deliver their best performances in probably their best movies in my own simple opinion. especially for Seth Rogan who's movies (whether some of you know it or not) uses Kevin Smith's own brand of comedy as his inspiration for the dialogue and that's the strength of this movie, Kevin Smith's signature dialogue, that is delivered with no holds barred delivery with a 1000 laughs a minute. aside from the porno part of the movie, this is a love story about two friends finding themselves while trying to earn money to pay off their bills by making a...you guessed it! a porno! Jason Mewes, in the movie as Lester delivers his best non Jay role to date. the other stand out performance other than the 3 mentioned above was Jeff Anderson as Deacon, the cameraman of the porno, who in the movie, LITERALLY has his shit covered in his best role outside of his signature Randal Graves from the Clerks movies. as for my rating? i give it 10 Star Whores out of 10 (for any said reference, if you don't get them check out the movie asap!) as it is just laugh after laugh as directer Kevin Smith steps out of his two comfort zones of the Viewaskew Universe (Jay and Silent Bob movies for those of you who won't know) and even out of Jersey to make one of his best films to date.
