It's Pat: The Movie

What was the person who made this film thinking? Did they have nothing to do for say the 2 hours they worked on it? It was horrible to say the most about this film. There was only one plus: Yeah for Ween, a cool band that gets no recognition. That was it though. No funny jokes, no good acting, nothing. Why I watched the whole thing is beyond me. If you are even considering watching this film then run far far away. Be safe watch anything but this.

It's Pat is one of those movies that will have you thinking "This can't be as bad as everyone says", due to it's cult status. Rest assured, the film is bad, but it is a far cry from being one of the worst films ever. The main problem is that the film has no direction. It spends 75 minutes shifting between being a farce and character comedy,failing to be both. In order to function as a character comedy, the lead must be likable, which Pat is anything but. He/she is boorish, rude, insensitive and downright unpleasant. Even if the character is written this way on purpose (which I suspect), there is little else to find interesting, save for a few mediocre jokes, which are not funny enough for this film to function as a farce. That being said, the actors do well with what they are given, but overall the movie's lack in direction or character development and mediocre jokes are its downfall.

I WANTED to like this movie, REALLY I did. Dave Foley, Ween, Julia Sweeney......but I have to say it is BAD. A lesson should've been learned long ago that SNL skits are 5 minutes for a reason. There is really no way to pad em out to feature films: except for Waynes World,which I liked. I dont know whose dumber: the people who keep makin these movies or us dumbies who keep renting em.

Mercy what an awful excuse for a film. Sexless (meaning impossible to tell whether male or female) Pat (Julia Sweeney) wants to get married to another equally sexless person in this amazingly poor motion picture that was just a ploy by those morons at Saturday Night Live to make a few quick bucks. They made very few bucks as the movie-going public saw through this mess before they ever set foot into a theater. Tasteless and worthless. Turkey (0 stars out of 5).

I must admit, I wasn't expecting much of this movie when I saw it on cable, but i didn't have anything else to do (and there was nothing else on tv) so I decided to watch this movie. To my amazement the movie was pretty good. Don't get me wrong or anything like that, it wasn't an oscar worthy production or some runaway hit, but the movie made me laugh hysterically in many of its insane scenes. I suggest you give this movie try....You will be laughing!
