This movie is a coming-of-age story about a sensitive, wisecracking, yet socially retarded male trying to become more successful with women with the help of his experienced friends. Though the humor is pretty weak and the characters aren't compelling, it does provide some accurate insights into this process. But as expected success turns out to be bad, being an average loser like all of us in the audience is of course for the best. When the hero begins to resist his impulse to form relationships with extremely degraded sluts, the audience is supposed to feel sorry for his weakness, and hope that his better nature wins out. And of course he finds himself in an absurd moral crisis involving...wait for it...rape. Because being interested in having sex with women of course makes a man a rapist. The ending is a romcom cliché. The movie is not entirely unsympathetic to the male condition, though it is pretty thin, and contains too much penis, but ultimately it's just another movie made to appeal to a society that caters to women at the expense of men.

Plot summary

I don't really know what's the meaning of "Crack, Back & Sack" until the first quarter of the film. And actually, that international title enough to cover the rest of the film.
"Pornopung" actually a simple film. A guy name Christian (played by Ole Christoffer Ertvaag) just move town to bigger city, Oslo, to continue his education. By the chance, he met Karl and Leo, his roommate, unfortunately there were women lover.
The first day Chris met with his two friends, I think tell the rest of the film. Chris entered his room and found Leo already finished to cock cake for Karl birthday. Both of them enter Karl' room and caught Karl was having fellatio from a girl. That's the main story.
The rest, I think so flat. Karl and Leo finally forced Chris to some lesson how to be a God Sex. He took it and problems came.
As a comedy, I don't have any laugh. As a drama, I don't have any thrilling emotion. The lack 9much) of sex didn't make it as romantic or erotic comedy either.
I think Johan Kaos work for this movie just 50% done. Well, he is still young. In future, I think he can many movie better than this.
A naive student is coached into becoming a ladies' man
I watched this film the other day and it an enjoyable but surprisingly dark comedy about university students trying to get laid. Unlike most USA comedies about this subject this movie treats the matter more seriously and maturely.
Certainly, the number of male penises -- both flaccid and erect--on display would automatically mean it gets blacklisted in the USA-- but, thankfully, it is an European movie and so gets a 15 certificate in its home town. Probably an 18 in the UK, maybe 15.
Christian is a shy, intellectual boy, slightly chubby, who goes to Oslo and ends up in a flat-share with two other students. His flatmates are pick-up artists, ladies' men, players, and try to sleep with as many women as possible. They decide to change Christian into becoming one of them and the film follows their attempts and then the consequences as Christian goes from nice-guy to player. The last third takes a decidedly dark turn...
With a subject that could have resulted in a lazy and trite teen-comedy the director and actors pull off an entertaining movie which asks some interesting questions about sex and sexuality in the current age and the battle of the sexes. The movie also contains the most aesthetically beautiful penis I've ever seen in a movie!
I hear it is based on a novel and this film certainly makes me want to go and read it. Good, entertaining film-making, European style.
