Zack and Miri Make a Porno

The last line of A.O. Scott's review of the film:

"The gauzy sweetness that envelops the end of the movie is not unwelcome, but not very convincing either. The 'porno' remains unfinished, and so does 'Zack and Miri,' having — like most pornography, interestingly enough — thrown away an imaginative premise to get down to predictable, mechanical business. It’s as if Mr. Smith were a plumber who knocked at your door and then, against all reasonable expectations, insisted on fixing the sink."

Awesome.
