If this movie wasn't trying so hard to be dramatic then I wouldn't be so hard on it. Just a ridiculous premise that shouldn't have taken itself so seriously. Only a douche bag like David O. Russell would make something like this. Also features two of the most un-redeemable characters in film history. I mean, at least Darth Vader had some redeemable qualities...the parents in this movie had none. Waste of time.

Just as some smaller films, I swear, only managed to get a distributor because of the naked babes therein, I think this one only received any attention because of its naughty subject matter... which isn't handled in a particularly insightful, clever, or funny manner. At least John Waters would have made an impression with this kind of movie, even if only a very bad one. An inauspicious beginning to a thoroughly unremarkable directorial career

"Spanking the Monkey" is the warmest family comedy to grace the screen since "Jade."
