Save your money for something good and enjoyable
Perfectly adorable
Boring, long, and too preachy.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
View MoreA routine sex comedy, "3,2,1...Frankie Go Boom" revolves a young writer whose life is ruined when an embarrassing video of him goes viral. He attempts to get he video removed from the internet, but to no avail."Boom" is at its best when actor Ron Perlman is on screen. Cast against type, he plays a macho transvestite who's struggling with a gender reassignment operation. It's a bizarre role, but the rest of "Boom" isn't as funny or madcap as it thinks it is. The film co-stars the ravishing Lizzay Caplain and ragged Chris O'Dowd. It was written and directed by Jordan Roberts, who co-wrote "March of the Penguins".6/10 - Worth one viewing.

Frankie's (Hunnam) brother Bruce (O'Dowd) has just got out of prison and is back in his life. Frankie is not happy about this. His whole life Bruce has been filming Frankie in the worst possible situations. When Frankie has an embarrassing night with a woman he just met his brother films that too. This simple act spirals out of control and ends up affecting everyone involved, and some who aren't. I'm not sure what I expected from this movie but it wasn't this. The movie is funny and I did laugh a few times but it was different then I thought it would be. The cast is funny and the dialog is funny but it is borderline offensive so be warned if you are easily offended. I don't want to say too much because this is the kind of movie that each scene builds on itself and saying something will ruin the flow but it is funny, just different. Overall, not bad and worth seeing unless you are easily offended. I give it a B-.
View MoreAwesome, quirky movie, funny fantastic cast. Just when you think you've reached the limit of comedic endurance, the next scene pushes you beyond that boundary and to a new ragged edge of hilarity. What a cast, what a plot, what an absolute 'destined to be a cult classic' movie! If I see this flick a hundred times I will still lose it, laughing with each turn of the plot. Warning- you may end up giggling insanely for hours after watching this one, friends. Being from Los Angeles myself, I feel that I might have met some of these people in my travels and now remember why I left the Golden State in the first place. If you do not see this movie you have only yourself to blame for missing the funniest film of at least a decade! There, I've said my piece; the rest is up to you...Theo macConnell Jr.
View MoreWe hadn't heard of this movie before seeing it for rent on apple TV. (we're mid-fifties, love comedies, and fear we've seen every movie ever made.) We chose to watch this one primarily because of the great cast -- and we were pleasantly surprised by this smart, quirky, irreverent comedy. Great script and acting, funny and original. I liked the art direction and sets, too. (I'm perplexed by the bad reviews -- if this movie gets less than 5 stars, I would sure like to know what they're watching that gets 6. I'd like to see those movies!) Anyway, overall we thought this selection was money well spent. I'll make a note of the director and seek out more of his work.
