While I am a huge Kevin Smith fan, I do admit I did not enjoy Red State very much so I went into this hoping that Smith would redeem himself in my eyes. I say not a bad job considering this whole movie was created from a podcast discussion. The movie is stale at times and some of the dialogue runs long, (no, not Justin Long), but it was funny. Johnny Depp's character was hilarious, Justin long's performance was notable, and Michael Park was amazing. I literally believed the man was bat shi* crazy! There was some gore and bloodshed, but this isn't a horror movie, and I think a lot of people went into it thinking it was and that explains some of the bad reviews.
For a movie based on a totally absurd premise, Tusk was pretty good, unfortunately I don't see it having much re-watch value. I might watch it again just to laugh at some of the dialogue, but it certainly isn't Clerks or Chasing Amy. Tusk is basically The Human Centipede with some humor thrown in Kevin Smith style. I recommend a watch, but there will unfortunately never be a Tusk poster on my wall.
