Zack & Miri Make A Porno…is killer, vintage kevin smith in that it’s hilarious, disgusting, vulgar, sweet, and sheds exceptional light on the human experience of those of us who are decidedly unexceptional. Not the assholes on reality shows, but more us schleps who watch them.
It follows very much the model of Chasing Amy, arguably KS’s best pic; the film starts out gut busting and ridiculous, but all of the sudden gets really serious.
Where as Amy, at it’s core, is really about reconciling our own preconceived notions of acceptable paths and unattainable expectations we place often place on a mate, ZMMP deals with recognize and then denying what is obvious.
And has Traci Lords. And poo. And Jason Mewes. And gay sex jokes.
