Trust Kevin Smith to come up with a name like that. It's been a while since he last tangled with the Christian groups, so he probably thought to himself, "Hmm... what can I do to rankle that bunch?". It's an adult theme, and sure to get an R rating, but with that name, now, you're just asking for trouble. And right on cue, Christian groups were up in arms.
Anyway, about the movie itself. Meh.
Zack and Miri are childhood friends, looking out for each other since the days of the high-school geek clique. Now, they are room-mates, with dead-end jobs, and mounting bills. They need to make money fast, and decide to make a porno movie. All well, but here's the tepid twist. They have feelings for each other, but don't know it.
Like I said, meh. Don't be misled by the eyebrow raising name. The movie is eminently missable.
