Film Review – Doin’ It

Raunchy comedies aren’t in the best shape these days. Many of these offerings are either too muddied with loose improvisation games or locked in a quest to outdo the Farrelly Brothers when it comes to shock value. Being outrageous just isn’t very fun to watch in recent years, and “Doin’ It” is certainly trying to deliver crude laughs when exploring a story about a woman’s quest to teach sexuality to teenagers while also experimenting with her own virginal ways at the same time. It’s a decent premise from screenwriters Neel Patel, Lilly Singh, and Sara Zandieh (who also directs), creating moments of broad antics and more sensitive soul-searching. There’s a decent picture here when Zandieh dials down the grossouts, doing much better with human moments of absurdity than routine coarseness, giving star Singh some moments to shine with a lively performance.
