Don’t let the title mislead you, I’m not going to review the latest porn (sorry, Osiris). What I am going to do is put my perspective on Kevin Smith’s latest film, “Zach and Miri make a Porno”. Having just recently seen it maybe now isn’t the time for me to put my review out there, but I can come back later with a new post and grab more attention to it after it has a chance to simmer.
I’ve found Kevin Smith’s movies fairly enjoyable over the last few years, but it’s usually the person himself that far exceeds the humor of his writings. I enjoyed his open forum discussions “An Evening with Kevin Smith” to be far more amusing than the content of his films. Things that define Kevin Smith are what make his works good. “Clerks”, to me, wasn’t nearly as enjoyable until I understood the adventure it took to become the movie. Jay and Silent Bob is more of a meme, though it played an excellent role in “Dogma” which I finde to be one of his funniest works. Chasing Amy is the best movie he’s ever done, and I was hoping for one as high a quality as it in “Zach and Miri”. (more…)
