Very best movie i ever watch
Good start, but then it gets ruined
From my favorite movies..
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
An absolutely incredible and hilarious film with remarkably boundary pushing scenes. Theres an element of surrealism to the intensely misogynistic world Spanky and Mert exist in. And the film in which the female characters shine the most, are almost sarcastic in their roles. With lines like "Every guy has sex with their sister at least once" you see that nothing in this movie is meant to be taken seriously. It is hilariously unfiltered and I think honestly contains some surprisingly iconic moments you may not expect from a purposely low budget film (i.e. When the neighbor lesbian couple catch Mert and Spanky peeping in the window). All in all this movie is just a fun time if you are not easily offended, and contains some great characters. Strawberry, the transexual prostitute, is one of my favorites. And of course I would definitely not recommend watching this movie sober, no that would be a bad idea.
This movie was a fantastic analysis of the developing male 'id'. The tumultuous plot is a beautiful reflection on the chaotic destruction and recreation of the self-perceived identity of an adolescent mind.With stunning visuals and brilliant cinematography, this movie simultaneously pays homage to, and critiques classics such as 'American Pie', 'American Pie 2' and 'American Wedding'. It highlights the purity of mirth found in simple humour whilst deriding a director's desperate desire to cling to a plot.Whilst this movie may not be for everyone, such as the pessimistic and pretentious like Harry Sorensen; those who seek pleasure in entertainment and life in general are sure to enjoy this art film.
What happens when two porn-addicted teenage potheads discover a kind of weed that makes people horny? I watched Sex Pot to find out what happens and try to determine whether or not it is the sexiest movie of all time Let me start by saying that Sex Pot is barely a movie. The opening credits sequence is a mix of Los Angeles stock-footage, Montreal stock-footage, and footage of traffic clearly shot by someone either in the cast or crew riding shotgun on their way to another location. There's nothing wrong with using stock-footage but mixing the skylines of L.A. and Montreal reveal the movie's low budget and disregard for details. The in-car footage isn't so bad but it reminded me of Birdemic's opening credits, which is another movie that's barely a movie.Less than a minute in, you already know that this thing is going to be a complete train wreck (For the rest of the review check the Sex-dot-com Blog)
I suppose if you go into this film with the mindset that it was done by The Asylum then you might not be terribly disappointed. I make a point of watching many of The Asylum's films just to see how bold they are with ripping off whatever it is they're ripping off this time. If you don't know The Asylum, they're bread and butter is taking popular blockbusters and making blatant knock-offs that usually beat the actual movies to market simply for the fact that they're so cheap. For instance, when The Day The Earth Stood Still came out, Asylum's response was The Day The Earth Stopped (starring C. Thomas Howell, no less). Or when Terminator: Salvation came out The Asylum was right there with The Terminators. If that gives you any idea of the level of "film making" going on over there, then you know what you're in for.Anyway, onto the movie. A bit of departure for The Asylum, I couldn't figure out what movie they were ripping off. Maybe because there's so many boring weed comedies out there, but I assume they're trying to capitalize on some of the newer Seth Rogan features. You've basically got two moron stoners who get ahold of some super special pot that makes girls horny and their constant quest to get laid and navigate wacky hi jinx. I know by now you're thinking this couldn't possibly get more juvenile, but you'd be wrong. There's a ton (almost constant, actually) of sex jokes that, while mildly amusing, aren't in any way doing anything for the movie. And I'll be the first to admit I'm a fan of gratuitous nudity, but even I found myself wondering if about 50% of the stuff was really necessary. I suppose I can't, in all fairness, expect any movie that centers around weed to have some intelligence or meaning, but this is clearly pandering to the lowest common denominator. That, or 15 year olds who still think this is the funniest thing ever.All told I guess if you have an idea of what you're in for it's not awful and, in the grand scheme of other Asylum productions, not nearly as derivative. Then again it's certainly not good. If you're reading this and happen to be 15, go out and rent it (but get mommy and daddy's permission first). If you're any older you should know better unless you are stoned as well in which case your opinion matters little more than a 15 year old's anyway.
