Negative Positive
Title: Horrifying.
Review: I love hilarious, raunchy humor, Super Bad, Blades of Glory, you name it. This was so bad I couldn't believe what I was watching, so much wrong I don't know where to begin. At it's heart there's a standard romantic comedy, but it's handled about as badly as anything I've ever seen. This was the directorial debut of Mark Helfrich, a fairly respected film editor. This kind of comedy requires a deft, experienced hand, but even an experienced director would have found it impossible to score saddled with this horrible, limp screenplay filled with mediocre sight gags and crude lingo that's about unhip as The Partridge Family. Every body tries, but it still arrives D.O.A. I thought the "extras" might provide a laugh, but the ad libs, the blooper reel, etc., all showed how unfunny this entire project was. Compared to this, Porky's seems like Shakespeare.
