Sick Product of a Sick System

Good concept, poorly executed.

Expected more

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The problem with the movie is that it tries to be so clever but it just isn't. Now that does not mean you might not like it (or find it justifiable funny in contrast to me). Bear in mind, this is how I saw it (and I'm assuming you two, though I won't reveal the ending, but speak of the one big thing, the movie has going throughout for it), so this is what I think is wrong with it.The problem the movie has is that it is inconsistent. If you go with an idea (as crazy as it is), go with it all the way. But making guys easter bunnies, you have to be clear about things. Of course you can say there are no rules to guys playing bunnies (though if you sell them as bunnies, then you should at least apply the simplest of rules on them) ... You cannot have one bunny have intercourse as a human being would have (not to mention, that he apparently has nothing down there to please the woman he is with ... and yes male bunnies do have something down there.Again you might find that nit-picking, but I think it should have been more thorough. This is something where a movie stars to loose me. But there are things too. The inciting incident (not delivering an easter egg), is one of the weakest things that could happen. It's like advertising not to do your job. The chemistry between the two main guys is all over the place (conflict just exists, when it needs to be there for the story to move on, which is kinda lame).The ending is completely bad, having almost to do nothing with the rest and just trying to create a feeling in the viewer (and in my eyes does not work one bit, as most of the dry jokes too).

I tried to watch this on TV today. Based on some user comments, I was expecting to laugh. Big mistake. I watched the first 20 minutes of this movie without even a smile.. nothing is funny in it. You see the 2 guys in bunny suits on the movie cover? Well, they never take those suits off. Being an Easter bunny it's supposed to be their job, but the movie makes them some sort of human-in-pink-bunny-suit hybrid. So, how are the jokes with 2 bunny-guys? They shower in their suits, the use deodorant on top of the suits, they have a special bunny-room at work, and they seem to have sexual relationship with normal (non-bunny) women. I don't know how could anyone find this funny.I'll go spoil some more 'jokes'. The company they work for advertises 'sponsored suicide'. One kid doesn't get her Easter candy, and this is all over the news - swap channels on TV, it's all about how the kid didn't get her sweets. Oh how funny. NOT! Obviously, the 2 stars of this movie missed the kid's house. And they get fired. Oh my God they fired some Easter bunnies. This was also supposed to be funny. Soon after this scene I remembered I was supposed to watch a 'comedy' and have some laughs. So I turned off the TV. This movie wasn't worth the 30 minutes I wasted on it. The reason I decided to write a review (I rarely do this): I was tricked in watching this movie by user comments in IMDb and it's grade of 5.8. I thought, a comedy with 5.8 can't be that bad. So I'm here to rate this movie what it's worth.

With its unusual premise of a company that owns all American holidays and hires seasonal employees to be Easter bunnies who have the difficult job of delivering chocolate eggs to kids in the middle of the night, this should have been a cute comedy but alas, it fell flat.My sister and I believed the DVD blurbs about it being a clever satire of corporate America and tried to watch it. The vulgarity and the repetitive jokes made that too much of a chore. There is nothing funny about two chain smoking, junk food eating, depressed people who are out of work. It should have come as no surprise to either Mike or Hank, since they were abusive to their fellow employees and sexually harassed every woman in the office. Characters can be sympathetic losers if they are lovable losers (as Bobcat Goldthwait was in HOT TO TROT). We could stand about a half hour of HANK AND MIKE and no more. I was sorry I rented it and still am!

Hank and Mike is a pretty smart offering - off-beat, but on message, this is comedy with a heart as black as 100% pure cocoa: a sweetened center tempered with bitterness.Cynical, surreal, and surprisingly insightful if you enjoyed Office Space you should enjoy this - it's kind of a mix of Bad Santa and Office Space with more that a small touch of the Odd Couple.The alternative reality stuff was saved from being Elf-like by the booze, cigarettes, and foul-language; bless'em. There are only so many jokes about Easter bunnies that work, so they're avoided in the main, though the ones used are good too.The humor is tight and a remarkably good satire emerges. It fails to be a total success, but as a quirky comedy with a gooey satirical center it flies.An Easter Egg of a movie: didn't expect much but we laughed a lot.Recommended.
