Undescribable Perfection

As Good As It Gets

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

It's hard to believe that a writer presented a script for this to a Hollywood movie team and received a green light to move forward with casting and shooting. And yet, here it is, in all of it's glory, a big pile of crapola. It was so bad that i just had to watch it to it's end to take in the full load of it's unbelievably asinine (no pun intended)story then sit back and wonder how junk like this actually got funded and scripted. Well, maybe they will approve and shoot a sequel because there has been worse, no too much worse, but there is some to be found..Catwoman maybe? I dunno but this is junk..

Bad Milo! is fun film that confidently mixes a game cast (Peter Stormare is especially good) with self-consciously loopy creature antics and action. The Freudian elements give the proceedings a modicum of respectability to offset the anally-fixated dialogue, jokes and revenge hi-jinks, while Milo himself is an amusing creation. However, although the film does have some good gore-attacks by the titular creature, in addition to very amusing 'bonding' scenes between Duncan and Milo, the film would have worked better with some Frank Henenlotter-style grunge and sleaze, as Basket Case and Brain Damage seem to be the most obvious influences (barring a maniacal and proctological take on Gremlins' Gizmo, that is), but Bad Milo! never reaches that level (or should it be glorious depths?).

Clearly I was delaying this watch for over the past couple of years. Finally, I ended watching it during this holiday season (December 2015). I am glad to get over with it and sad for dragging it this far, because the film was not that bad as I have heard.May be we call it the men's version of the movie 'Teeth'. Since the sexual intercourse is kind of complication for the theme from this movie to draw a better storyline, they have introduced a fictional character that detachable from the human body. That is very funny as well as disgusting.This horror-comedy was average, but very enjoyable and better than being a worse. It was a short flick and had a surprise twist and turns, but the quality to excite us is what's missing. Had a decent story, but the scenes that constructed were not top notch. Being a B movie is that why it passes the flaws' test because of the restricted budget and for not having a top star in the lead. Simply one time watch movie and nothing a big deal about it.5/10

Duncan (Ken Marino) is chased by some mysterious horror. Then it flashes back 123 hours. He is in the doctor's office with his wife Sarah (Gillian Jacobs) with a polyp in his colon. He hates his job and his boss Phil (Patrick Warburton) is making him fire people. He has a new therapist Highsmith (Peter Stormare). His mother Beatrice (Mary Kay Place) brings her boyfriend Bobbi (Kumail Nanjiani) and a fertility doctor to dinner. He poops out a monster which kills everyone who causes him stress. He bonds with it naming it Milo.It has some minor funny moments. Milo himself generates very few laughs. It's a little gross and very perplexing monster. I think the scene coming out in front of the therapist needs to show their connectivity more. Milo can get hurt and Duncan can get hurt in sympathy in that scene. The horror part of the movie isn't that scary. The comedy has a few good scenes. It's a B-movie that is slightly better than a butt monster ought to be.
