darryl8519 The Oh in Ohio is a witty comedy about the complexities of an orgasm. Paul Rudd plays the quick wit slacker character that we've grown accustomed to seeing and Parker is the adorable know it all that we all love. The film is surprisingly funny and heart warming. Danny Devito plays an endearing lovable salesman. This film manages to take the romantic comedy genre viewer into different, unexpected directions. I'm a big fan of filmmakers that can take a date or couples film genre, like a romantic comedy, and turn the genre into a film for all to enjoy. If you're a Paul Rudd fan than this is surely a role of his that you don't want to miss. This film is worth a watch if you like to laugh you wont be disappointed!
szellner4 There are few redeeming aspects in this showcase of irresponsible, unmotivated filmmaking. The characters, dialog, and situations were nearly as uncomfortable and awkward as the premise of a woman trying to have an orgasm. I don't understand how a film mainly about sex can be so boring, slow, uninteresting and UN-sexy. The pacing is far too slow for what is supposed to be a fun, quirky film, and the editing is loose with some confusing cuts. The entire film felt unnatural, uncomfortable, and bored. A few plot points and lines of dialog were entirely confusing and unclear, and by the end of the film I felt lost. The student and Sherri characters were poorly written and poorly executed – they felt like characters in a book I was reading. They weren't dynamic and didn't feel truly alive and present. Their comments were unnatural and strange, and didn't fit in with the rest of the film. Also, a very confusing aspect of the film was the relationship between Priscilla and Wayne – I won't give everything away, but throughout the whole film I was confused about their past, present, and until the end, future. So now you might be wondering about those redeeming qualities I mentioned earlier. Paul Rudd is an excellent actor, which somehow manages to show through in this film. However, his skill is weighed down, limited, and ultimately trapped and killed by the poor writing, directing, and overall execution of this story. Danny DeVito is the only thing that manages to rise above this snooze-fest to make it somewhat enjoyable. His character is developed, complex, motivated and real in a world of fake, tired, hollow shells of people. Overall though, this film is slow, barely able to capture and hold attention, and left no impact on my view of the world. I believe that each film is worth watching once – to watch this film again would be a waste of time.
siderite This had the hallmarks of a perfect chick flick: woman having no orgasms finds "the way". Then a lot of situational humour about the reactions of the husband, the friend of the husband, the friend of the wife, the husband's girlfriend, the wife's boyfriend... etc.Yet, after describing what seemed to be a spicy, yet ordinary story, the movie ended abruptly as if saying "ok, this is how it goes, learn what you will from it, that's it".As a comedy I've had some good laughs, but very few. As a romantic comedy, there is almost no romance, just sexual rediscoveries. As a drama, well, there is a lot of drama, but the film passes through it like it is a bit meaningless.Bottom line: great premise, some interesting actors, sexy actresses, but not enough spunk. This should have been more.
tritisan I like it when movies don't treat sex too seriously. It's OK to laugh during love scenes. I applaud any attempt to bring truly "adult-themed" movies to the American audience. But, for some reason, I really wasn't amused by OH! In fact, I found myself frequently glancing at the clock; I barely made it through to the end of the DVD.OH! was trying so hard (too hard) to be like Sex in the City, what with its jazz-lite music and an improbably sunny depiction of a big city (Cleveland instead of NY). But where Sex in the City was truly adult material treated in an adult manner, OH! seemed childish. It felt like maybe it had a great original script that attracted talented actors, but then ended up watered down by the executives so that "it will play well to middle America." So instead of a true indie production that pushes boundaries, you get a watered-down, corporate friendly flick that's neither mainstream nor "edgy." Worst of both worlds. Not sexy. Not funny. Not believable.
