'Zack and Miri Make a Porno' web reviews

Kevin Smith returns to the big screen with "Zack and Miri Make a Porno," in which Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks decide to make a porno in order to get rid off their growing debt. You can read Joseph's review right here. Also, let's see what other online critics have to say about it:

Cinematical's Scott Weinberg: "If the movie falters a few time near the finish line (with a third act that's a bit too conventional for a guy like Kevin Smith), it's a small gripe in the face of a flick that delivers lots of big, strong laughs"

• Brad Brevet at RopeOfSilicon: "Zack and Miri Make a Porno has the Kevin Smith vibe to it, but its conceit almost seems to get in the way of itself as this over-the-top sex comedy ramps up only to see Smith overcompensate the more risqué humor with a sticky sweet love story that gets quite sappy."

Joblo's JimmyO: "I had fun with the whole gang."

Collider's Matt Goldberg: "Here's what's frustrating about "Zack and Miri": It's a good film and Smith is constantly undermining it."

• Josh Radde at FilmSchoolRejects: "Overall, it’s a solid movie. The love story is painfully obvious, but it works."

• George Roush at LatinoReview: "It's not the greatest movie nor is it even the funniest comedy to come out this year, but fans of Smith's work will love it and casual comedy lovers will have plenty to laugh at."
