Writer/director Kevin Smith used to be a bit of an indie god. His debut "Clerks" was made on a shoestring budget and his films have normally had a real freshness and originality. His last three films; "Red State" "Cop Out" and this, are starting to show that Smith is running out... read more
Endearing but corny, it's standard Kevin Smith fare. Goofy and disgusting things happen the whole way through, but the characters are likeable and the laughs are decent. What might have been most interesting about this movie was the deconstructing of porno that it slipped into fr... read more
An average comedy that follows through due to the great performances by Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks. There are some laugh-out-loud, hilarious scenes due to sharp dialogue. What drew me off was the excessive nudity (No duh, it's a movie about porn), but the movie works best whe... read more
Considering what the movie's about there's an innocence to it. It isn't entirely an outrageous gross out comedy that breaks the proper entertainment barrier. The characters are entirely likable and the hilarious cast members like Craig Robinson prove that they can take on serious... read more
The premise is surprisingly naughty for Hollywood, even if this is a Kevin Smith film we are talking about. Two friends decide there is money to make with porn and get busy casting and preparing a big porn shooting. The first half of the film setting up this situation with the pe... read more
Zack and Miri Make a Porno is Kevin at his raunchiest and one has to wade through the shit (pun intended) to get to the heart of the story, as one always does watching his films. The cast is pretty nice, even if it is pretty much a company of Judd Apatow regulars. The script and ... read more
Not Smith's worst movie but a huge disappointment due to the fact that it feels like he's stealing Apatow's style.
Not one of the funniest Rogan movies but definitely worth a watch. I have to give this movie credit where its due, the story line was certainly a new take on the "where can we get that kind of money?" plot line that seems to be at the core of a million and one comedy films. Origi... read more
What would you do to get out of debt?
Saw it again! Very very funny and darkish humorous with a little of a romantic end, that's about it. Seth Rogen is one funny guy, one of my favorite right now.

It's one thing for a movie to be dirty; it's another thing altogether for it to be plain sloppy. Full Review
Kevin Smith turns out to be reverent after all: he wants to separate true love from mere copulating for money, but his story mixes romance and porn so inextricably that he seems confused, and the movi... Full Review
Everyone on screen seems to be having so much fun.
Seth Rogen is totally out of control. He's been marvelously funny in the past, and will be again, but get that party animal back in his cage. Full Review
Zack and Miri isn't very funny. Laugh-out-loud bits here are as rare as real breasts in an adult film. Full Review
The audience where I watched the movie laughed so hard that we all probably missed a third of the lines, and it was still one of the funnier movies I've seen this year. Full Review
The jokes are forced, almost mechanical, in their crudeness. They're so carefully placed that they feel a little precious rather than spontaneous, which ends up defying that impulsive, animal thing in... Full Review
The mood lurches around a bit, and the film itself feels a bit diluted -- as if Kevin Smith were doing Judd Apatow doing Kevin Smith. And Smith, and his fans, are far too original to settle for that f... Full Review
Without the wit, raunchiness tends to feel uncomfortably forced. And the moments when Z&M works are, almost without exception, the ones that are more sweet than shocking. All the rest, frankly, feel l... Full Review
