It's simultaneously intriguing and repulsive, a would-be cult curio not even the most indulgent cult could love.
Sweeney, who first invented the character while a member of the L.A.-based Groundlings comedy troupe, has almost perversely turned the relatively harmless TV character into a boorish, egotistical creep for the bigscreen. Fans of the “SNL” sketches will be disappointed. Non-fans won’t bother.
The whole question of sex blurring deserves an infinitely better film than “It’s Pat.”
The opening half-hour, as Pat and former music video director Bernstein conspire to keep the secret while depicting the banal existence of this truly irritating character, is reasonably entertaining. The remainder of the film has some amusing moments, but the story goes nowhere, and if the film ran longer than its 80 minutes, it would have become too tedious to tolerate.
It's Pat is not only one of the most ill-conceived premises to get the big-screen treatment, it's also genuinely unpleasant to watch.
That this silly excuse for a movie knows it's silly isn't nearly enough to justify its waste of talent, time and money. Skip it and save yours. [26 Aug 1994, p.25]
