Films of 2000s & 2010s • BAD JOHNSON(2014)

A handsome, smooth-talking young womanizer has plenty of luck with the ladies, but he sabotages all his promising relationships with his chronic infidelity. He laments that he's a slave to his own insatiable pudendum -virile, and wishes it wasn't so. He awakens to find his wish has come true, as the appendage has detached, and transformed into a guy who shares his unsavory characteristics. A story of comeuppance, redemption, and romance follows. 
 
 There was a very workable idea at the pith of this roundly substandard absurdist comedy. In more capable hands, this might have become a worthy addition to an as-yet unnamed microgenre with film like BAD MILO and HOW TO GET AHEAD IN ADVERTISING. Sadly, the involved personnel saw fit to lay on the raunchy comedy and crude one-liners with a trowel. It has a (very) few good moments, and actor NICK THUNE does a commendable job portraying the humanized member. At length, however, it comes up a very disappointing waste of an interesting idea.
