Zack and Miri Make a Porno - great Kevin Smith movie
Short review: Lifelong loser friends choose making an amateur adult film their only way out of financial issues - hilarious flick, highly recommended!
The plot in a nutshell: Zack and Miri are broke and desperate for funding since their bills have not been paid in months. After some serious thinking over a few beers, they decide to shoot a porn flick assuming at least anyone who went to school with them would be interested in watching it, making their focus group at least 800 people strong 
While they cast co-actors and build up a filming crew with a little help of their friends, they also discover something they would never have expected to find out.
Flickcritique says: This movie is insulting, obscene, disgusting and I love it! It’s absolutely awesome! I am not a big fan of Seth Rogen, I thought he sucked a bit in Pineapple Express but director Kevin Smith just knows how to make actors shine. The entire cast makes a great job. I pissed my pants listening to the conversations about finding the right title for the flick 
In the end they choose Start Whores I believe. It’s also a movie that educates the audience, since I learned a few new terms. My favorite is “Dutch rudder” . It is the second romantic comedy this year that I liked, after What Happens in Vegas. The ending is a bit of a cliché but that’s all right, considering how out of the ordinary the entire movie is.
Flickcritique says: Watch it 
Watch it if you liked: Any movie directed by Kevin Smith like Dogma (1999), Clerks (2000), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) - this man is a genius
Edit: I almost forgot to mention the outstanding performance of Justin Long. Kudos to him for his short but extremely impressive part
