Bad Johnson - 2014 ***


Bad Johnson is every man's nightmare, especially if that man happens to be an egotistical player who constantly uses women for sex. It's quite refreshing to see a film that gives men like that a hard time, as too often they are portrayed like superheros that we should be high-fiving as they bonk one ditzy blonde after the other. Rich is just one of those irritating men. He's a pretty boy, obsessed with his looks and equally as obsessed with sleeping his way around America with all the gusto he can muster. He has a unique excuse for his behaviour however. He blames his penis. In fact, when his current girlfriend whom he is actually serious about finds out he has 'against his will' slept with a woman in her car he can't help but place the blame on his genitalia. To no avail. Going home, he makes a wish; that his penis will disappear so that he can conduct a meaningful relationship without all the hassle of sex. Waking up, he finds that the inevitable has happened; his penis has done a runner, and is seeking refuge behind a bin outside a fast food store. Rich might want his penis back, but his penis has other ideas. Well I could go on,but it gets even more ridiculous after this, so it's best I leave it unspoken. It's very silly. Might be worth a watch anyway.
