Bad Johnson

Why actresses take roles in dreck like this I'll never know. The money must be fabulous.

A movie of our times, even if it's not an especially good, funny or interesting one.

A sometimes amusing sex farce ...

What would "It's a Wonderful Life" look like if Clarence the angel were replaced by the human personification of George Bailey's sentient penis?

This is a parable about a man who learns to embrace his better self in the absence of his nether regions. Said parable is neither surprising nor profound, but that wouldn't matter as much if the movie were funny. It isn't.

"Bad Johnson" works much better than it should. Because, really, it shouldn't work at all.

There's some kind of lesson about learning to grow up and stop being a jerk - if you can look past the "Johnson" humour.

The premise is a whopper of a bad idea, made all the more disheartening by the notion that someone thought highly enough of it to see it as a feasible outlet for movie comedy.

As bad as things are for Rich and his limp sidekick, the audience really gets the shaft courtesy of a script that's completely devoid of inspiration.

The central joke in this low-budget comedy should have been a springboard to something either blackly hilarious or more amusingly complex, but the filmmakers seem to have run out of ideas after coming up with the title.
