All in all it's a modern-day, Kevin Smith fairytale: a big-screen bearing, perhaps, of his soul at its sincerest and wittiest, if not filthiest. Go to Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald 02/20/2009
There remain some scatological touches I am still trying to forget. It's all done with great glee, yet falls far short of being hilarious. Go to Full Review Jim Schembri The Age (Australia) 02/20/2009

A well-meaning, foul-mouthed misfire. Go to Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review 09/05/2023
2/4
Zack and Miri Make a Porno exposes Smith’s formula to its most naked structure, leaving his outline blatant and overexposed. We slowly realize that he’s been making the same movie over and over again: Sex comedies with surprising acumen and feeling. Go to Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins 11/28/2020

Whether or not genuine romantic drama was intended, the end result just isn't that funny. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/27/2020
