The Oh in Ohio

The OH in Ohio Zero Stars

What a horrible, terrible, dull, unfunny, sex comedy "The Oh in Ohio" turned out to be. In fact, indie queen Parker Posey should be ashamed of herself. Nothing turns out right here, whatsoever. Paul Rudd and Danny Devito couldn't even once make me smile, in a film with such a horrible script, and no wit at all.

Posey plays Priscilla Chase, a young woman with a perfect husband, in a beautiful house, and is climbing up the career ladder very quickly. The only problem is that she has never has a fully satisfying experience in the bedroom. This doesn't make her husband Jack, a high school science teacher(biology to be exact) very happy, and he doesn't even feel very much like a man. He moves out into the garage when things get really bad, and then ends up finding solace in the form of one of his students, Kristen.

That is actually the entire plot, for the first thirty minutes. Then the movie shifts off into strange directions, involving Posey's encounters with hoards of men, Jack leaving her, and then her love story with, gasp, Danny DeVito. That was just strange. Billy Kent's screenplay moves on without rhyme or reason. It's inconsistent, alot happens but nothing with any structure or denseness. Things happen just for the sake of happening. Kent probably realized that he only had an idea for a small sketch on Saturday Night Live, but not for a full-lenght movie. It's just silly, and it's not even entertaining. At times it was downright stupid, and not in a good way. I'll admit, maybe DeVito gave me a smile or too, especially towards the end, but "The Oh in Ohio" really has nothing going for it whatsoever. And about that ending. They make me sit through this entire thing for that!?
