mathijsschaap This movie has great potential. It has some of my favourit actors, like Jack Nicholson, Woody Harrelson, John Turturro, John C. Reilly, Luis Guzman and even a great cameo by John McEnroe.But here's the flaw: Adams Sandler is in it. You know, that overrated guy with no talent, acts even worse than an amateur with no experience, brings nothing new to his character, looks the same as ever (thank goodness he is not wearing a cheap dollar store wig in this one) and is never, ever convincing as a character with anger issues. He's just being Adam Sandler. Only the name of his character os different. Same haircut as ever, same attitude as ever, thinking he's a funny guy. And he is no funny guy. He never is.That's why I've got mixed feelings about this movie. I love the acting by the others who's names I've mentioned above, but Adams Sandler should never work with actors of this veteran status anymore.
wkt1 Anger Management is one of the best movies i have ever seen with an excellent cast and story . I could not stop laughing Jack Nicholsons performance was very funny throughout the whole movie .Fans of both Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler will love this film .There is nothing bad i can say about this movie . The plot is very well thought out with no holes or problems like some of Adam Sandlers other movies . I have seen this movie at least ten times and every time i watch it it gets better . the supporting cast also help to make the movie so brilliant including Woody Harrelson and John Turturro who both have small but great parts in the film .
markusheim1970 I'd be tempted to slam "Anger Management" as another slice of lighthearted, sanitized mental-illness swill from Hollywood (it does play out like "28 Days" meets "The Dream Team"), if it wasn't for Jack Nicholson's manic performance--he hasn't been this funny since "The Shining." Adam Sandler does well, and exhibits some control as a guy with problems containing his rage (I'll admit...I've never seen any of his other movies). But poor Marisa Tomei...the girl who once won an Oscar has become one-dimensional background scenery, indistinguishable from any would-be starlet. The movie's lowbrow humor and endless parade of cameos gets tedious near the end, and from the overhead shot of a packed baseball stadium that kicks off the last act, anyone who's even half-awake will be able to predict the unforgivably sappy conclusion. Average entertainment redeemed somewhat by Nicholson's inherent zaniness.
OllieSuave-007 This is a comedy starring Adam Sandler, who plays a businessman wrongly sentenced to an anger-management program, where he meets aggressive instructor Buddy Rydell, played by Jack Nicholson. I saw this movie once, on a plane. It was an OK movie to pass the time during the jet ride. There are campy scenes at the expense of Sandler and the overly crazy Nicholson, mixing in to provide us with a mildly entertaining film. Marisa Tomei provided a nice balance of romance and drama, serving as Sandler's love interest. The plot was OK and the overall story was serviceable; I did find the script handling dealing with one's own anger clever, resulting in the characters serving up some good laughs and puns. The plot also didn't drag on that would have made this movie boring.Aside from some of the camp and downright silly sequences, like the monk scene, this movie is worth at least one watch. Grade C+
