I don’t know how director Garrett Brawith (who also made FDR: American Badass!) and writer Ross Patterson (Helen Keller vs. Nightwolves) got Kevin Sorbo to say some of the dialogue in this, but this movie is less a film than an exercise in saying really off-color things and then claiming that it’s a joke.

Poolboy is supposedly — in the world of the film — the vanity project of Saint James St. James, who made this when he was ten. Well, this is the sequel. The first one was so racist that no one is allowed to see it.

Sorbo is Jan Van Hammer, who plays Sal Brando, the poolboy of the title. He was hoping to come home from Vietnam to start a pool cleaning business with Fontaine (Deon Richmond), but all he has left is that man’s arm. And he gets back to his house just in time to catch his wife in bed with Eduardo (Bryan Callen). He steals the man’s van and pool businesses, which gets his wife and kid killed by Caesar (Danny Trejo), who is part of a huge national Mexico vs. America conspiracy.

At some point, when Jan Van Hammer is nearly killed, his role is taken over by Jason Mewes.

This is a confusing film. It’s going to offend everyone because of what it says, and yet it wants you to love it by saying, “I’m just kidding!” As always, there’s the danger of laughing at rather than with the film’s themes. But it’s still kind of fascinating, even if it’s way too long and runs out of steam after thirty minutes, as it’s a sketch stretched thin.
