    Was 'the jerk' a funny movie?

    • And so when I say that “The Jerk,” the first major film starring Steve Martin, was not an amusing comedy, I should probably also report that a lot of the people who went to the sneak preview laughed all the way through it. (Others booed—but there you are.) I can report, however, why I didn't find “The Jerk” very funny.

    Where can I watch the jerk?

    • Rent The Jerk on Fandango at Home, Prime Video, or buy it on Fandango at Home, Prime Video. Crude, crass, and oh so quotable, The Jerk is nothing short of an all-out comedic showcase for Steve Martin. Navin (Steve Martin) believes he was born a poor black child in Mississippi. He is, however, actually white.

    Is 'the jerk' a movie of funny hats?

    • You may have guessed by now that I prefer the Funny Logic approach, and that “The Jerk” is almost entirely a movie of Funny Hats. An example, from the film's opening premise: Steve Martin has been raised as a member of a family of poor black Southern sharecroppers, and, although he is white, it has never occurred to him that he might be adopted.

    Advertisement. “The Jerk” is all gags and very little comedy. After Martin hits the road, he has a series of adventures as a gas pump jockey, a weight-guesser in a sideshow, a hapless lover of Bernadette Peters, an inventor of a gadget to keep your eyeglasses from falling down. All of these gag situations are milked for one-time laughs.
