Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Needing money and excitement, roommates Zack and Miri attempt to make an adult film and dredge up long-unrequited feelings for each other.

Amazon.com:
Fans of writer/director Kevin Smith (auteur of Dogma and Chasing Amy) should run to see Zack and Miri Make a Porno--the adored filmmaker has clearly made this with his hardcore following in mind. Zack (Seth Rogen, Knocked Up) and Miri (Elizabeth Banks, Slither) are longtime friends and housemates who, after their power and water get shut off, turn to pornography to pay their bills. After assembling a cheerful and perhaps dimwitted cast and crew, the hapless pair launch into their cynical yet heartwarming scheme with enthusiasm, only to discover--spoiler alert!--that they have feelings for each other. Smith clearly wanted to make a sex comedy with heart, something in the vein of The 40 Year Old Virgin.Unfortunately, Zack and Miri Make a Porno combines the mawkish, formulaic sentimentality of Jersey Girl with the belabored, formulaic sex gags of Clerks II. For a movie that clearly hearkens back to Smith's own experiences making the beloved and archetypally cheap-and-dirty Clerks, Zack and Miri Make a Porno is sadly generic and predictable. But Smith's fanbase will appreciate that the movie has snarky jokes about science fiction, a good dose of bare breasts (and two actual porn stars, Traci Lords and Katie Morgan), and the schlubby guy/hot chick dynamic that drives a thousand sitcoms. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - PS3 loading problem for this disk
There is a problem with the BD-LIVE on this disk, you will have to disable your internet connections to view this disk on the PS3


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - i couldnt get this to work.
i tried to watch this on 3 different ps3s and it kept getting stuck on the "loading" screen. amazon has a great return process, so i requested a new copy and got it pretty quickly. however, go figure that the new replacement copy did the exact same thing. i ended up just sending them both back and getting a refund. i have bought lots of blu-rays from amazon and been totally satisfied; this is the first time something like this has happened.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Double Dutch Rudder
I am a Kevin Smith geek and I love this venture out in PA. When they were trying to rate this movie there was a lot of controversy about it being a rated R movie or a NC-17 movie. The male lead Seth Rogan said something to the nature that we can produce movies like Hostel and release them with an R rating and they show far more graphic and disturbing things and we cannot show two adult having consensual simulated sex without an NC-17 rating WTF!!! And I cannot agree more, this is a romantic comedy that was far under rated. If you are tired of Sandra Bullock or Dane Cook romantic comedies then give this one a shot. If you like the "Ugly Truth" then you would love this as well, it may not have a lot of heart warming moments but the ones that are there will have you watching this movie over and over


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Like the movie, hated the disc
Ok, so I really do like this movie (I am, admittedly, a Smith fan) so I was happy to see it at a good price on blu-ray. I buy it, put it into my PS3 and it fails to get beyond a "LOADING" screen. It fails to move beyond this screen for over 24 hours. I try a second disc, same problem. Firmware is up to date and I can't seem to find any other mention of this problem. So, I guess I'll either try the DVD or order the hi-def version through the PSN.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My favorite romantic comedy
This is by far my favorite romantic comedy. My wife and I watch this more than any other movie we have, because it is so much fun to watch. All the actors are hilarious, and Kevin Smith shows he still has what it takes to make a gut-busting comedy.
