It’s a limp film (pun fully intended).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 12, 2023

A sequel to this ghastly comedy is already in production. What a shame.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 9, 2021

The jokes are so unremittingly cheap, so purely predictable, that "Porky's" is less shocking or amusing than boring.

| Jun 15, 2021

[A] vulgar, sexist, racist, sadistic, juvenile, scatological, gross movie.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 15, 2021

Clark seems to have done his research at the junior-high level; if you're much older than that yourself, Porky's is going to seem pretty dumb.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 15, 2021

Because of the high quality of Decree and other Clark films, most of us expected Porky's to be a lot better than it is.

| Jun 15, 2021

Obviously, there are a lot of adolescents and post-adolescents out there who are eager to reclaim their high school memories. For them, this will be a trip back; for anyone else, it hardly can be considered a step in any direction.

Clark has written an especially simple-minded script that comes across as a debased amalgam of "American Graffiti" and "Animal House," and directed it in a way that only emphasizes its poverty of imagination and humor.

| Jun 15, 2021

Though it may only be by mistake, "Porky's" and its cast of personable characters manages to spark several genuinely funny moments (of course, it manages to spark still more that genuinely aren't).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 15, 2021

Sure the meandering plot can be hard to follow at times and the pacing could definitely use some tightening, but it is nostalgic, earnest, honest and, most of all, full of heart, much like Bob Clark himself.

| Jun 15, 2021

The cast is adequate and the filmmaking is competent. "Porky's" is a soft-core sexploitation movie that knows exactly what it is doing.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 15, 2021

Side-splittingly funny.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 15, 2021

If "Porky's" is "the funniest movie about growing up ever made" (check the ads), then suicide at 16 should be compulsory.

| Jun 15, 2021

The comedy is clever and complex in its apparent innocence and simplicity. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Aug 26, 2019

Isn't a very accomplished storytelling effort, wandering blindly around pranks and melodrama as it fights to find a higher purpose beyond being just another horndog teen feature.

| Original Score: C | Feb 18, 2013

Bob Clark's teen sex comedy carries a stamp of social satrie that is timeless.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 9, 2007

helped solidify the teen sex comedy and spawned dozens of imitations

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 10, 2007

a low-budget celebration of filth

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 1, 2007

Still, the shower scene is pretty damn funny.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 25, 2006

It's vulgar enough to be fascinating even while you hate it, and it's certainly the most revealing American success since Taps.
