  • Heartwarming stuff

    Kenny deserves all the plaudits as a really warmhearted Aussie comedy. I would have rated this movie higher had it not gone slightly off the rails when the character travels to the convention in the US when the film loses much of its momentum. Fortunately all is not lost and the movie quickly returns to its earlier heights.

    Kenny tells the tale of a proud plumber and devoted father who is engaged fulltime as a key member of a portable toilet company. He's a rough diamond who - as is often the case in such businesses - is the glue who holds the whole place together.

    I loved the way the film attacks the whole concept of job snobbery that originated in Britain but really took hold in the US where many citizens ironically emigrated to escape notions of class.

    Kenny is proud of his job and rises above the jerks who seek to define him by virtue of his chosen career. The film does a marvellous job of displaying the hypocrisy of many of his critics in a brilliantly subtle fashion.

    Shane Jacobsen is a revelation as Kenny and firmly positions himself among the top ranks of Australian comedians.

    Grab that DVD, this is good, clean (ish) fun.

  • An absolute turkey

    The plot summary is thus: One playboy brother attempts to get less swingin' brother laid. The end.

    This movie is an absolute turkey, confirmed by the fact I could not stand watching it until the end. Chris Klein confirms his career is dying by agreeing to star in this stinker. Other stars are less than forgettable and the writer should have his hands chopped off for penning such rotting garbage.

    A strong contender for the worst movie of all time. Beware of any review above 3 stars - the reviewer obviously had someone else write it for them on account of their parents being first cousins.
