Reviews for Corky Romano
You either think it's stupid and funny or stupid and unfunny. I thought it was pretty funny, for the most part.

With a great many contemporary comedies mistaking excess for invention and hyperactivity for dynamism, Corky Romano displays genuine heart.

...hops into his yellow Miata and drives a vibrating jolt of solid laughter though audiences for a full hour. Silly Slapstick Fun.

The skits are barely funny enough for TV, let alone to make a feature film out of.

Stick with the website.

There's one, maybe two laughs the whole time. Where's Mango when you need him?

One of those throwaway, cliché-ridden TV-star-to-film vehicles built upon the most rickety of plots.

...has a wacky side, but the wackiness does not tread outside the boundaries of the story.

The jokes fall flat as often as not, and they’re not helped a whole lot by mediocre special effects and sloppy direction.

Top CriticAds for Corky Romano feature Corky's face in a pained, possibly post-dental grimace. You'll wear the same horrified expression if you see this spectacularly unfunny movie.

Five minutes into the movie, you know exactly how bad it will be.
10/12/01
A crushingly conventional mob comedy that also borrows more than a few pages from the Adam Sandler playbook.

Top CriticWhen to Go Get a Drink/Hit the Restroom/Answer that Page: Do it quickly, and permanently, so you can get your money back.
10/11/01
Directed with a relentless and remorseless absence of style by Rob Pritts.
10/12/01
A wobbly cinematic vehicle.
