Review: 'Zack and Miri make a Porno' is not as naughty as it implies but is funny


Zack and Miri Make a Porno   R    
            Kevin Smith takes a break from the Jersey series to go across the way to Philly in this sex comedy that nearly delivers the goods. Seth Rogan (Zack) and Elizabeth Banks (Miri) play loser friends from high school who after a horrid reunion but afterward they are unable to pay their bills, so they come up with a hair brained idea: make a porno flick and make bank. Soon they discover that it's going to be impossible in a rented studio, when it gets demolished, and then they film it in the coffee shop where they work after hours! A genuinely funny movie with some great gross outs, including Jeff Anderson's brown nosed closeup to Jay Mewes going full frontal with a fake extension. worth owning if you're into Kevin Smith. The only drawback is a sense of MPAA issued restraint that keeps it soft core and thus less edgy than it could have been.
