Theatrical report

Phlegm.

Not just bodily fluids, not just mucus but honest-to-god phlegm. What a wonderful word. Say it. Phlegm. Feel how it rolls off your tongue.

Mmm... phlegm.

If you're not in the mood for bodily wastes and mucus membranes then Osmosis Jones is the wrong movie for you in SO many ways. If you like a giggle at the odd fart joke then you'll LOVE it. That's all you need to know.
