Zack and Miri

So I had the pleasure of to watching a special presentation of Zack and Miri make a Porno, the new Kevin Smith film, yesterday at the Toronto International Film Festival. It was really really good, I wont say much cause it's not out till Oct 31 and I don't want to ruin it for anyone, but damn! It was funny, sweet, sexy, gross, silly, what else can I say it's a well rounded film. Smitty has done it again. He completely proved to all the Jersey Girl haters that he can make a non Jay and Bob movie and have it kick ass. For the record I really enjoyed Jersey Girl, if you haven't seen that yet either check it out. It is also a sweet and heart warming film, yet still hilarious. Kevin has an amazing talent for writing real people feeling real things in outrageous situations. Seth Rogen is brilliant in this, everything from his expressions to how he delivers his lines is amazing, and his acting is phenomenal, there are moments when you really feel for this guy. As for his "yang", Elizabeth Banks, she is also very memorable and hysterically funny, she also has scenes that pull on your heart strings proving her an excellent actress. Then there's Mewes, his part as Lester is ridiculous he is something else, you are gonna die laughing at this guy. Oh and keep your eye out for Justin Long, his cameo is one of the funniest parts of this film. The over all feel of the movie is very "indy" and makes you feel that your watching IFC, as well as having that Clerks mysticism to it. It's very reminiscent of Kevin's early career. Overall AWESOME! Can't wait to see it again in October, and everyone should go as well.
