Stonerville


Today's movie is the 2011 comedy Stonerville.

To be perfectly honest, the only reason I decided to watch this movie is because I'm a huge Leslie Nielsen fan and this was his last film role before he died. Any movie can be good, so despite my low expectations I was hoping for the best... 

The barebones plot centers around a guy named Troy "Slam" Slamsky (played by Patrick Cavanaugh) who makes internet videos. Someone will say something or he'll see something in a scene and then the movie will cut to a comedy sketch which acts as his next video.

This film is just horrible. The acting is bad, the writting is bad, and Leslie Nielson is only in the film for about 2 minutes so it's not even worth watching for that. None of the comedy works in the movie. Slam's sketches are built upon comedy that appeals to the absolute lowest common denominator; it's a lot fart jokes, adolescent sexual humor, 95% of which is presented with no sense of comedic timing.

I honestly can't think of anyone that I'd recommend this movie to. The movie is only about an hour and a half long, and it was still a chore to get through.
