A masterpiece. A goofy, glorious comedy about despicable men projecting their fantasies onto a woman who sees only the best in their performative actions. Nonstop classic gross-out gags, but honest above all - a layer of sweetness beneath stunts and jokes regarding gender, class, and notions of romance.
The last time I saw this film I wrote, "Mary never appears to be much more than a cypher..but maybe that's the point, seeing her through the eyes of these men who believe they're in love with her, using her kindness as reason to idealize her, and thus objectify her." Firstly, it's not "maybe" the point, it totally is, and if I hadn't noticed that more clearly before it's possibly a repercussion of this movie being almost too.....funny. OR: possibly I was foolish enough to fall into the same trap! But behind the heightened silliness of this movie is a very acute one about the invisible line between idealization and objectification.

This holds up better than I expected. Beyond the fact that it’s still uproariously funny — the “franks and beans” sequence has such a nightmarish quality and every scene with the dog kills — it’s a pretty effective portrait of male psychosis. Nobody comes off looking particularly great in this movie, except Mary, of course.
(Also I forgot a lot of the excellent people in this in tiny supporting roles: Keith David, Sarah Silverman, Willie Garson, Harland Williams, and Richard Jenkins as Stiller’s uncaring therapist. Deep cast!)
I've actually never seen this before, but some scences are so iconic, I've known them for years. I never knew they're all from the same movie tho.
This timeless gross-out comedy has held up reasonably well after 20+ years. Perhaps the best film by the Farrelly Brothers, at times humorous, at others crass and repulsive. Don't expect a cinematic work of art; it is not punchline humor or slapstick comedy. Instead, expect very well-done rookie humor in which you will laugh at things you feel you can't control, despite your best efforts to convince yourself that you would never poke fun at such things. Even if, like me, you aren't a big fan of gross-outs, one still can appreciate this movie. Not to everyone's taste, even for individuals who consider themselves comedic experts, but this is the kind of humor that is challenging to perform once you've grown…
A real, proper movie. When was the last time a comedy had this many memorable characters, gags, and ideas? A realer real movie than Green Book.
