There's not much NOT to love about Orgazmo. Trey does it again. This isn't one of those "Not THAT storyline again" sort of movies...nor will it ever be.

I agree with the critics AND minimax34...this is definitely the least funny out of Trey Parker's efforts. The concept is genius, but the jokes seem so tacky and forced, while the performances (with the exception of Parker and his buddy Stone, who has a bit part in the film) are all lackluster.

Final verdict: rent it if you're a fan of Parker--There are a few laughs in it for you. Everyone else should probably skip it.

I have to agree with the critics!

Its quite boring and not very funny. Surprisingly, this movie is a big disappointment, the concept could have been good but it isn't, its much more funnier to read about it than watching it.

  Massively inventive and spiked with perversely wicked humor.

  A consistently light yet derisive tone, modest production values, and masterful comic timing allow writer-director-star Trey Parker to expose cultural hypocrisies with precision. His performance--in both the movie and the movie within the movie--is dramatic and poker-faced, seamless and hilarious.

  Best of all, it proves that there are still directors cut from the John Waters mold who aren't content just to push the envelope -- they rip right through it.

  Like everything else Parker puts his mind to -- is equally outlandish, part skewed morality play, part sophomoric slapstick, and wholly ridiculous.

  The film too closely resembles what it's attempting to spoof--minus the obvious payoffs, of course.

  Like "There's Something About Mary," Orgazmo has a very sweet love story at its core, although it's more consistently entertaining, blending some outrageous moments with a surprising degree of restraint.

  A ridiculous soft-core kung-fu porn film about a ridiculous hard-core one, Orgazmo is the kind of movie that improves according to the lateness of the hour.

  There’s something entirely ridiculous about rating a movie like this NC-17: Why should sniggering, infantile, adolescent humor be denied its natural core audience of snigger-ing, infantile adolescents?

  Cheerfully raunchy and undeserving of its prohibitive NC-17 rating, Orgazmo is a harmless sex farce.

  One of those things that probably seems hilarious when a couple of guys are sitting around hashing out the plot over a couple of beers.

  Dian Bachar, as Joe's pint-size sidekick, sounds the only note of sly wit; the unidentified stripper playing T-Rex delivers the only real shock value. The movie could have used a lot more of both.

  Faced an insoluble problem: how do you make a boundary-shattering gross-out farce about the porn business that isn't itself pornographic? Having the actors wear silly costumes embellished with sex toys just won't do the trick.

  Pretty limp, and works far better in theory than practice.
