Elli_The_King_of_Broadway Another ill-fated attempt at 'Jewish' humor by using every self- deprecating stereotype known to mankind.Every single human should be offended at the characters in this wasted bit of video.From Jew to Irish Catholic to Asian Jewtopia offends equally.When will Jews stop being embarrassed by our religious beliefs and start being proud of who we are? Our heritage is an amazing thing to behold. Why not show the delicious Jewish foods that we eat and not be ashamed of our religious beliefs and our Holy Torah that forbids intermarriage as a measure to keep Jews Jewish.The actors did their best with the offensive crap that they had to act with.I am SO glad I didn't see this when it was off-Broadway, I would never have been able to sit through the whole play.0 out of 10 wasn't an option.
iraz I did not see the play, so I cannot compare the two works. I am Jewish and enjoy films that poke fun at Jews. A film that comes to mind is "A Serious Man" by the Coen brothers which is drawn from their upbringing in the Mid West. This was a very funny film with finely drawn characters. In "Jewtopia", the characters do not come across as real people but rather caricatures of real people. The humor is not clever but extremely silly and not funny. It shows a lack of creativity because there is a wealth of material to draw from and this is a lazy effort to poke fun at both Jews and non Jews alike. This is the kind of film that makes me angry because the effort is so poor. the story so weak that you have to wonder where it will draw an audience from. It does not deserve and audience! Once it opens in theaters I guarantee it will have a short run and generate very little income and no buzz. There are so many poor films being made and this one indicates the filmmakers have little faith in the intelligence of its audience.
colleenmurphy01 got to attend a private screening for this film. i'm not Jewish, but rarely have I ever laughed so hard. the movie reminded a lot of dumb and dumber and some of the other farrelly classics that I love. the story centers around a Jewish guy and a gentile guy. the gentile wants to marry a Jewish girl so he'll never have to make decisions - and the jew essentially is obsessed with Asian girls. in most comedies you can see the gags coming a mile away but this was not the case here as the movie at every turn shocked me and had me laughing at the same time. the cast is particularly strong with Jon Lovitz and Joel Moore, Rita Wilson and Jamie-Lynn Sigler who plays a gynecologist unhappy with her own VayJay - one of funnier moments in the film. Hopefully audiences will soon be able to share in this movie as I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.
Laura Sanders Attended the world premiere of Jewtopia last night at the Newport beach film festival. I came in not knowing what to expect as I'm not Jewish and found myself laughing out loud almost every minute of the film. While there are a few insiders jokes I found the vast majority to be universal. The story revolves around two guys - one Jewish - the other not who are both questioning their relationships and struggling with their families. The premises asked you to take a leap of faith to go along with it, but after a few minutes I found myself no longer questioning and going along with the story which moves and never had me bored. The cast is great - especially Jon Lovitz and Jamie-Lynn Sigler who both have a ton of great one liners. Hope this film will come to theaters soon as Id love to see it again and would certainly recommend it.
