Sporadically funny
Added 8/11/2009
The Bottom Line:
The first half an hour or so of Zack and Miri Make a Porno (particularly the High School reunion scene) is often quite funny but soon the movie falls into Knocked Up mode, so desperate to cling to a formulaic romantic plot that it forgets to be a comedy too; even fans of Kevin Smith are likely to be disappointed in the mixed bag of a film.
2.5/4

A VERY STRANGE MIX OF SWEET AND SOUR!
Added 8/2/2009
After watching 'My Best Friend's Girl', I expected this film to be really funny. With a cast like this it's pretty hard to fail, but in some ways...it does. The mix of raunchy and romance is really a little jarring at times and the whole porno movie thing is really just a backdrop for a routine romantic comedy with a lot of profanity. It's a shame because I would have liked this film to continue on after the porno was made. It's not a bad film, but I expected more from this crew. The DVD transfer is excellent and the 2 disc edition has some interesting extras.

Hmmm... so that's what Jason Mewes looks like naked.
Added 7/13/2009
Porn has gone mainstream! Twenty years ago it was something quiet and shameful; relegated to curtained-off areas of your local non-chain video store. Before that, all there was were creepy little theatres showing such epics as "Behind the Green Door", and "Deep Throat".
Now, though, it's so mainstream it seems like anyone can do it, and that's the thrust, as it were, of "Zack and Miri Make a Porno", or, as it says on the box where I bought it, "Zack and Miri", cause the retailer is willing to make money off it, but they don't want to risk offending anyone who might see the word "porno".
And make no mistake; this is a potentially very offensive movie. It's also incredibly hilarious, and one of Kevin Smith's best!
The plot centers around Zack and Miri, two people in their late-twenties who are desperate for money. They've lost their power, they've lost their water and they're facing eviction. What ever are they to do?
Then they come up with an idea: make a porno. Not just any porno, mind you, but "Star Whores", a geekfest porno, featuring all the action geeks think they might like to some day see. Events spiral from there, plans get changed, the movie gets changed, and there's a lot of nudity and gross-out humor.
I must say, I laughed my backside off at this film. It's like all the best of a Kevin Smith movie mixed with some of Apatow's better works. It's not perfect, but it's pretty darn hilarious! I never laughed so hard as I did when I saw someone get their cake frosted, as it were. Sure, it was predictable, but still great. Plus, hey, as I said in the title, if you've ever wanted to see Jason Mewes naked, now you can.
I'm glad to see that Kevin Smith is branching out beyond the View Askewniverse. He's got some real talent and it's nice to see him display that here. This movie isn't for everyone, but fans of his previous work, as well as movies like "Superbad" and "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" will likely have a great time!

Too crude to fully enjoy
Added 11/10/2009
As a huge Star Wars fan and general geek, I enjoyed a lot of things about the main story. However, the unrelenting stream of vulgarity finally overwhelmed the fun for me, not unlike when your toilet backs up and finally spills over onto your floor.
This movie deserves an R rating for its large quantity of bad language, sexual references, drug use, and other "mature" elements. I wish it had been rated R, so I would have known that offensive content would make it not worth watching. I certainly wouldn't recommend this movie for anyone under 17. However, it seems aimed at Gen Y types who I presume have been desensitized to such things by media like this movie.

Good but didn't live up to the hype...
Added 11/10/2009
All around funny movie if you can deal with some bad acting and choppy story. I was a little disappointed and I expected more...a lot more. Could have been a better movie but I will take it for what it is. Definitely worth a rental...

Fanboys-Funny movie.
Added 11/8/2009
Although I hate Star Wars(Yes I am sorry I do, I hate star Trek Even More) I found the movie very funny and Yes I did get the star wars references, I didn't think it would be funny, but it was, And I enjoyed the movie, Even if your not a Starwars fan you should watch, But Trekkies or Trekkers Beware!LOL. the only part That made me angry was seeing Kevin Spacey's Name as Producer. He is a Communist tool.
