Kenny Ratings & Reviews
- leswalker67March 26, 2025Crazy funny and original

- flavo431d agoKenny is a brilliant mockumentary that somehow turns toilet humour into something both hilarious and genuinely heartfelt. The film’s greatest achievement is how seriously it treats its subject matter while never losing its comedic edge. By presenting Kenny Smyth’s unglamorous job with sincerity and respect, the movie finds humour not in ridicule, but in human dignity and quiet perseverance. Shane Jacobson is outstanding, delivering a performance so natural that it often feels like you’re watching a real documentary unfold. His comedic timing is flawless, yet it’s his warmth and authenticity that make the character so endearing. Jacobson’s writing and creative vision shine through in every scene, balancing absurd situations with moments of surprising emotional resonance. Kenny succeeds because it never winks at the audience or treats its jokes cheaply. Instead, it celebrates an everyday Aussie battler doing his best in a messy world. It’s funny, sincere, and unexpectedly uplifting—a uniquely Australian film that proves great comedy can come from the most unlikely places.
