Pretty Good
Excellent but underrated film
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
The only good thing about this movie is that V.i.n.e.s.s.a S.h.o.w is beautiful and looks great in tights. And R.e.n.a M.e.r.o is even more beautiful and looks amazing in a red bra. But other then that nothing. It's not funny. It's kind of sick a times. It's very stupid. And funny stupid just stupid. It's piece of pooh. Don't wast your money. It's just pooh pooh. It sucks. It sucks. Pooh pooh. Pooh pooh. Pooh pooh. Stinky stinky pooh. A great big pile of pooh pooh. A bad taste. The taste of pooh pooh. To many mush of C.h.i.r.s K.a.t.t.a.n hurting his crotch. Not funny sick. Sick is not funny. Sick is just sick. I hate this movie. Pooh pooh. Pooh pooh.
MIGHT BE A SPOILER!!!!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE! what else can I say it's hilarious! it's about a VERY dysfunctional family...Corky who is cut out for absolutely nothing, goes undercover as a FBI agent and the boss thinks he's just what they need for the case of the night vulture. But all wanted was to steal evidence against his father, "Pop" Romano, but every time he comes a step closer they pull him back five. Corky Romano is one of the funniest movies ever! I told my best friend about it and I was shocked she'd never even heard of it! But I got her to watch it and our favorite part is the same as almost everyone else's..."You guys want some cookies?" This is what some call a dumb comedy but that's what makes it SO funny!
So, anyone who has experienced TV here in North American will testify, trying to find something good to watch at the weekend, if you are not a sports fan, is nigh impossible. Therefore you end up watching s**te like this. I was always of the opinion that most people leave the TV on for the sake of it while they do something else. This has to be the case as I cannot imagine anybody actually watching this garbage. Soooo, there I was writing some letters and this movie came on. Now the remote was no more then a few feet away but like a fool I left it lie while this film droned on and on and on and on. Now normally movies like this will go two ways. One, its so bad that you actually laugh at it or, two, it gets annoying. It was definitely the latter, definitely. What a waste of a good cast and the "star" whose name I can't remember was no actor. I believe he is a comedian but he couldn't act to save his act. One to avoid. One more thing, why don't they make remotes that are easier to get at? Bah!
When my boyfriend started doing stupid gestures, like, holding his arms out when I opened the door, I thought, what movie influenced him now.Well, I got laid-off again from another job and he stated he saw the movie and he couldn't stop laughing.Since laughter is good for the soul, I was eating and watching the movie and couldn't stop laughing. I had to stop the movie until after I ate. Once you start laughing, everything seems funny.The best part of this movie for me was when the dog and Corky was immersed in cocaine and Corky had to speak to an elementary school audience.Every time I feel low, I put in the movie at this part and laugh until I cry.
