Reviews for Corky Romano
A sloppy, sophomoric feature.

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

Marking the first time in recent memory that a non-Adam Sandler actor has undermined not only the quality but also the watchability of an entire film

Why do you suppose "Saturday Night Live" stars seem to be no more discriminating when picking movie scripts than zoo monkeys are when they eat their own feces?

Though a decent showcase for ... Kattan's talents as a physical comic, this broad, coarse farce is otherwise as insubstantial a piece of work as you could possibly imagine.

When to Go Get a Drink/Hit the Restroom/Answer that Page: Do it quickly, and permanently, so you can get your money back.

Frankly, there wouldn't have been enough shtick here to warrant an SNL skit.

Top CriticAll empty clichés and dead-on-arrival jokes.

Ads 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.

It's no compliment to note that with very little tinkering, Corky Romano could be a Martin Lawrence picture.

Top CriticIt just isn't funny enough, often enough.

Is Corky Romano worth your time and money? Fuhgeddaboutit.

If you don't care for [Kattan] -- or if you have no idea who he is -- the prudent move would be to steer clear.

You either think it's stupid and funny or stupid and unfunny. I thought it was pretty funny, for the most part.
10/11/01
One of those throwaway, cliché-ridden TV-star-to-film vehicles built upon the most rickety of plots.
10/11/01
Many of the comic set pieces (or pieces of set pieces), fall dead flat ranking this effort somewhere above “The Ladies Man” but below “Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo”
10/10/01
After five minutes, I was ready to run screaming for the exits.

'I survived Corky' tee-shirts should be given out to everyone who stays until the end credits roll and can provide proof that they didn't take the easy way out of napping.
