Review

Los Angeles Times, 10/31/2008, "ZACK AND MIRI has a bright, chipper look to it....[Rogen is] a master of making it look easy. It takes skill to come off like you're making it up as you go....[Banks is] on top of her game here."

Empire, 2009-01-01, p.70, 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here are big, fast laughs to be had from the relentless trash talk."

Chicago Sun-Times, 11/05/2008, "[A] very genuine romance. Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks make a lovable couple..."

Rolling Stone, 11/13/2008, p.98, 3 stars out of 4 -- "Rogen and Banks, both terrific, bring out the sweet and spicy best in each other....They rock it."

Distributor Note

Get ready for the wild comedy that goes where no movie has dared go before! Seth Rogen (Pineapple Express) and Elizabeth Banks (Role Models) star as two cash-strapped roommates who try to get out of debt by making an adult film.

Product Notes

As its explicit title suggests, Kevin Smith's ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO is a foul-mouthed and filthy film that probably isn't fit for the very young, the very old, or the easily offended. But for those who enjoy Smith's brand of humor, this raunchy but romantic comedy could be the perfect date movie (though perhaps not for a first date). With mountains of past-due bills piling up, Zack (Seth Rogen, KNOCKED UP) and his roommate/childhood friend Miri (Elizabeth Banks, SCRUBS) aren't sure how they're going to stay in their Pittsburgh apartment. But a chance encounter at their 10-year reunion gives them the idea to make a porn movie. When it comes time for the friends to do the deed, they realize that perhaps they're more than just friends.

With all the talk of sexual positions and bodily functions, it'd be easy to say that Smith is hopping on the Judd Apatow bandwagon that has dominated the box office in the latter half of the aughts with KNOCKED UP and THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN, and ZACK AND MIRI even features a few Apatow alumni. But Smith perfected this schtick down back in the '90s with CLERKS, when some of Apatow's fans were still in diapers. ZACK AND MIRI is most reminscent of Smith's own CHASING AMY; there are plenty of gag- or giggle-inducing moments, but Smith's script is also surprisingly sweet. Rogen and Banks make a perfect couple, and the always hilarious Rogen could be Smith's new Ben Affleck or Jason Lee.


Editorial Reviews

TOWER.COM REVIEW

Childhood friends and roommates Zack (Seth Rogen) and Miri (Elizabeth Banks) are flat broke and working dead end jobs. When their water and electricity are turned off in the middle of an icy winter, they decide that to make a porno so that they can quickly pay off their mountain of unpaid bills. What ensues is an against all odds effort to make the video that will enrich their lives- though not in the way that they think. Sadly, the enrichment is long in coming (sorry!) and for the first hour, the most uplifting element of the film is that your life cannot possibly be as bad as Zack and Miri’s. Kevin Smith, writer/director of cult classics Clerks and Mallrats, dealt gracefully with an unusual love story in his 1998 film Chasing Amy. Yet Zack and Miri lacks the heart, the perceptive scrutiny of human relationships and the witty dialogue of Chasing Amy. What IS in plentiful supply however is slapstick and scatological humor, and there is swearing and a reference to male genitalia in almost every other line. The incessant vulgarity is a little wearing; I am all for making characters sound real, but I think that even the proverbial sailors might blush at some of the lines in Zack and Miri.
