38Unfortunately, this version of the familiar formula lacks the inspiration, genuine wit and raunchy charm of 1998's outrageous "There's Something About Mary."
-
38It's getting tiresome, this stuff.
-
38It's so-so. As in mediocre. Even gross-out comedies need the stink of genius.
-
38Most of the film is one big blooper reel. There's not enough of a gap between the rejects and the finished movie.
-
30Maybe gross-out romantic comedy is a shallow well, and it was simply Rogers's misfortune to find himself with a bucket full of sludge.
-
30The movie is like a well-intentioned designer knockoff that doesn't know when to quit.
-
30A few clumps of very funny stuff (including a quick tonsorial reference to "Mary") can't hide all the spots that are bald instead of bold.
-
25The movie doesn't understand that embarrassment comes in a sudden painful flush of realization; drag it out, and it's not embarrassment anymore, but public humiliation, which is a different condition, and not funny.
-
25Aside from providing a lesson about movies with titles that provide their own bad review, Say It Isn't So gives low humor a bad name.
-
25The brothers (Farrelly) produced Say It Isn't So, which bears their stamp in every frame and features all of the elements their movies are known for, except one: laughter.
-
25In the same genre as the Farrellys' "There's Something About Mary" and "Dumb and Dumber," only lousy.
-
25Simply something you don't want to touch.
-
25A one-joke, one-note turkey.
-
20It's a dull, unremarkable comedy.
-
20The humor stays on one low level throughout, and thus fades fast.
-
20Elicits not the voluptuous discomfort stirred by the boys' (Peter and Bobby Farrelly) best corporeal shenanigans but creeping embarrassment for everyone on screen.
-
20I don't like Say It Isn't So, but I understand its karmic inevitability.
-
20All you really need to know about Say It Isn't So,the latest flatulent noisemaker from the Farrelly Brothers' gross-out comedy factory, is that late in the movie, Chris Klein punches a cow from behind and finds his arm stuck inside.
-
20Even dumb farce has to be built on logic, but that crumbles in the face of a set of tired routines playing off of stock types.
-
20What a jolly comedy theme: incest.
-
10A script by Peter Gaulke and Gerry Swallow that is minus a shred of Farrelly wit.
-
10This time, the jokes about dead animals, gunk in the hair, incest and all other taboos are flatter than the road kill Gilly finds himself picking up for a living.
-
A cringe-inducing flop.
-
0A black comedy in the form of vicarious serial punishment.
