yeah, sub-par Apatow at best, but i really thought it was tame and softcore.

Aside from the poop shot, I didn't think there was much raunch; it was just juvenile with a gooey center of mush. But it's sort of the only time the geeks let themselves get misty which is kind of amusing.

I saw Zack and Miri yesterday, and was almost completely turned off by it’s raunchiness. Not only that, but for some craaaazy reason I expected more from the film than just Zack and Miri trying to make a porno. I know that’s the title, but that literally is what it was. Other than the high school reunion (which was probabaly the best part), this film conatined no other scenes that didn’t serve that purpose. Sorry but Apatow this is not. I just don’t see myself having to watch it again, and definately can’t see myself quoting it.

Part of me thinks Smith is only talking this movie up to prove that he’s trying to make a serious film, even though he knows it likely won’t be made–he wants everyone to know he’s trying. It sounds like pretty much every studio has passed on the script (according to Devin Faraci), so expect this to become another story in Smith’s live setlist…”Did I tell you guys about the time I wanted to make a serious film but no one wanted me to…?”
