Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star
Innocent Midwesterner Bucky Larson works in a dead-end job as a grocery bagger and has never even kissed a girl. But after knowing that his parents used to be porn stars, he moves out to Hollywood in order to follow in their footsteps.

I'm not sure how many tedious sex jokes and humorless physical gags people can take before they run out of the theater screaming, but Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star certainly tests the limits.

Putrid and completely unfunny, 'Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star' is a torturous exercise for a viewer. I can't count the times I wanted to walk out of this ghastly excuse for a movie. Still, I stayed with it. I just couldn't bring myself to leave.

This isn't even a series of skits, but a series of vague ideas for skits that nobody fleshed out.

Childish.

Swardson and the gang generally opt for silly over edgy and outrageous, but Bucky is just too dashed-off a character for the movie to get by on that.

This movie is dire, soul-crushing stuff.

This god-awful, unfunny, stinkingly putrid sketch-comic movie has exactly one snicker-worthy moment, involving Kevin Nealon and a stolen grape. But watching the rest of it will make you whine.

Through all this, one feels nothing more strongly than an acute sympathy for all involved -- in particular Ricci, who gives her role more than it deserves, and Herrmann, a classy character actor who once won a Tony.

God, this guy sucks. Swardson. And Bucky.

Nothing to see here, kids.

Icky and repellent in ways it probably did not intend.

Working under the incorrect assumption that anything having to do with porn is hilarious, Bucky Larson is a consistently strained comedy without much charm or wit.
