Made (2001)

“Made” is a textbook example of character-driven comedy. Vaughn plays Ricky,

a blazingly self-confident, unstoppably talkative and completely stupid
character. He fancies himself a big shot and a ladies’ man, but he’s a loser.
The audience sits in astonishment at the twists and leaps of his perverse
reasoning.

No question, Favreau struck gold when he created Ricky. The majority of the
film is just a setting in which Ricky wreaks his destruction. Yet, curiously,
the picture is set up as more the story of Bobby, played by Favreau.

Bobby has a lot on his mind. He wants to be a professional boxer, but he’s
not much better than an amateur. He wants to rescue his girlfriend (Famke
Janssen) from her job as a lap dancer and provide a home for her and her
sensitive daughter, but he doesn’t have the money to do it. Favreau the actor
ably conveys a sense of Bobby’s frustration.

“Made” is characterized by a distinctive sense of humor that demonstrates
both Favreau’s appreciation for the absurdity of real-life communication and
his awareness of silly movie convention.

Scene by scene, “Made” is satisfying, and it’s only later that one realizes
that the movie doesn’t offer much in terms of story. Yet more surprising is
the fact that Bobby is not just relegated to the role of a straight man most
of the way; he all but disappears, though he’s in every scene. The focus is
all on Ricky. Perhaps Favreau, who also had to direct, was all too happy to
hand the scenes off to Vaughn.

Though an idiosyncratic leading man, Vaughn has a gift for comedy. Some of
the dialogue in “Made” was improvised, and the comic invention at work here —
Vaughn’s and Favreau’s — make “Made” into a rough gem.
