One of the better movies at Sundance, 11 February 2009
7/10
Author: jonahsavant from United States

There is some sweetness to Humpday, and that is perhaps it's greatest quality.

I am not a big fan of the mumblecore movement because it seems to attract and be made up of a lot of young people who don't know what to do with themselves. Out of that comes a defensive cleverness that I find dull and uncreative. That said, this movie has some heart and doesn't take itself too seriously. So, good. Hopefully others will follow suit.

I don't think there is much more to be said. Duplass and Josh Leonard are solid. Lynn Shelton holds up an interesting mirror to her group: Self-conscious anal control freaks posing as relaxed hep cats. Yes, true that.

Hopefully this will be the last porn movie for a while, because not much interesting has come out of the subject matter.

Then again, I'm an old man(44), and what do I know?
