Corky Romanoreviewed by Benn "Where's the Humanity?" Farrell
Kattan plays the title character, a hapless veterinarian, who is enlisted by his disowned Mafia family
to infiltrate the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). Of course, the plans is, Corky gets in,
destroys the evidence against his ailing mob boss father and…well that's it. Having lived in the
dark about the family's business, Corky learns about what's been going on, as he searches for what FBI evidence
against them is true and what is fabricated by an informant on his father's payroll.
Yes, it's very far fetched. However, Kattan is a physical madman in this picture and very
laughable. Most other scenes are completely stupid.
One poor aspect of Kattan's performance is the fact he is a flaming homosexual in real life,
which easily transfers to his performance in such roles. So, when the story takes him into a semi-romance
with a fellow FBI agent, the chemistry between them is completely unfounded.
"Corky Romano" was directed by newcomer Rob Pritts and written by TV writer David Garrett and smalltime
credited scripter Jason Ward. Both writers are providing the screenplay for the upcoming "Deuce Bigalo"
sequel. Sure, that'll be worth seeing.
If you enjoy brainless comedy led by a homosexual having a seizure, than "Corky Romano" is the
rental for you. Otherwise, you will always remain enjoying life if you skip this one.
