Synopsis: Three best friends who also happen to be morons, find their friendship in jeopardy when one meets the wrong woman, who proceeds to take over his entire life.
Review: "Saving Silverman" is obviously never going to be an Oscar contender or receive any major awards (with the exception of the Razzies), but what it is, is a lighthearted entertaining comedy that proudly wears it's sophomoric, slapstick humor on it's sleeves. But it's that of it's two particular stars Jack Black and Steve Zahn where the heart of the film really works. It's the chemistry that works between Zahn and Black that makes it particularly enjoyable as two idiots determined to save their best friend. The two bounce off each other with offbeat humor that proceeds to the best of their strengths in making them amusing. If you're someone who can't broaden their mind in comedy, then don't bother watching this film, but if you can withstand that of "Full Metal Jacket"'s Gunnery Sgt. Hartmann (R. Lee Ermey) defecating a lawn, then "Saving Silverman" is your choice.
