I didn’t like the film, but it wasn’t sleazy, art-house porn but more just clunky - possibly deliberately so, but you could see the low budget - the lack of exteriors, the cheap backdrops and the bad make-up and the cutaways to avoid showing the violence. Both the cinematography and the acting were flat and lifeless and I came to the conclusion that it didn’t matter if that was deliberate or not - it was just badly done. A bit depressing, overall.

I've not seen Tiny Furniture for quite a while, but remember finding it funny. The thing is, Mark Kermode is extremely cerebral and simply doesn't like (or get) what he calls "quirky" humour. It actually irritates him. He doesn't even like Scorsese's 'After Hours', or Miranda July's films. He does think 'Independence Day' is hilarious however, so his opinion on humour isn't worth anything to me.

At 2:51 I honestly thought it was a Mark Kermode impression because the background music abruptly cut out yet the dialogue still remained. It sounded a lot clearer as if recorded in a studio. Did they really bother to cut out the background music just so they could play the clip for a bit longer?

I was a bit down on it the first time i watched it but i just rewatched it and enjoyed it more the second time around. The anachronistic dialogue peppered in did annoy me as much as it did the first time but i found myself getting over that more and i was even willing to forgive the occasional incredibly ropey accent. Even from the guy who was supposed to be from Liverpool and had clearly never been anywhere near it in his life. I got over it all much quicker the second time, it didn't take me out of the film and make me go on a 10minute Mark-esque rant about why they hadn't just given that speaking part to someone else, or just have him be from some other port town a bit closer to his natural stomping ground. 2nd time was a charm.
