Terry Anderson Quite possibly the worse movie I have ever seen. My brother rented this about ten years ago and I still haven't forgiven him. How did it get made and after making this horrendous film, who thought it was a good idea to actually release it. I wish I had a picture of the face I was making as a sat through this entire film, so I could at least laugh at that memory. Why the hell was Blockbuster even renting it out! Every copy should be burned!
magicmanmb Can't put a spoiler as there is nothing to spoil. The opening and constant talking to the camera is annoying, some films have used it in small doses, not this one. If Sandler had done some of the writing instead of ripping of Henny Youngmans rejects possibly it could have been a 2 star, I realize it was partly due to first time. I don't see Billy Bob Thornton added to the movie. The excessive profanity was just truly offensive. Fine line working blue & using it instead of proper dialogue. The F word was used countless times, in FAME it fit in with the character it wasn't necessary to use it here.I have truly never seen so poorly written material. I bought as part of a box lot of 100 at an auction. Watched it and felt like I had become dumber by watching after looking at the reviews. I'm giving it to my Mother in law for Christmas, many times she has said Adam Sandler SNL & Movies are always funny we'll see what she says now. I think all the other reviews are kind. Please save your money but if you must see if its playing on a free or introductory price service.
surfs_up_55 Yes folks, this is one of those movies! Its soooooo bad, but so good. This movie just stinks. It may actually be worse than The Room. The only way this can be viewed is with friends. There is no way you can watch it on your own (please don't try, you'll thank me). The acting is bad, the production is bad, the 4th wall breaks are bad, and the jokes are bad. But all that just adds to its hilarity. I watched it with some buddies and we didn't stop laughing and quoting it for ages. Highly recommended. Surprisingly there are also lost of cameos from some solid actors/directors which makes this movie all the more baffling. 10/10 would watch again... With friends...
nynemout42 Saw this movie several years ago on DVD. It's Adam Sandler's real break into the movies. It's absolutely nothing like his movies today. This movie goes way beyond the term "cheesy"! It's terrible acting and low budget. A few things were slapstick funny, but overall, this movie is better off left on the shelf! I'm almost willing to bet that Adam Sandler wishes he could buy up all the copies so no one else could watch it! Kind of like making a home comedy movie when you were 10...and then watching it when you're 30...only it's not as cute cause you weren't the one making the movie!! I don't live in my mom's basement and I don't sit around all day critiquing movies. I promise, it's an hour and a half of your life you'll never get back!
