If you are interested in watching, do it! It's very very very funny and the only thing that's really bad is a lot of bad language. Just a few sexual references but nothing too notable, adnd some drinking. I loved it, and you will too if you love Adam Sandler comedy!

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Billy's apathetic view on life. How may growing up without any pressures or responsibilities result in Billy's degenerate lifestyle? Parents could highlight Billy's ability to act as a role model for his fellow classmates. Why is it important to have positive role models?

Great Movie
Lots of normal sandler humor. Swearing includes (1 f**k, mulitiable uses of sh*t, and other minor words). Although this movie is not rated for it the movie should also be rated for sexual humor (words like j**koff, r*ck are used), there are a few other suggjestive things. Role models are very bad and spend a lot of the movie drunk.

This movie is HALARIOUS with a capatol H. I just watched this about an hour ago, I cried so hard I threw up. I cried laughing. The sex will fly over the little kids heads, there is some violence. A clown falls down off of stilts and bleeds from the mouth. A man is shot in the bottom by a cycopath. We see him with crutches at the end of the movie. A wrestler tackles a man. Billy puts a flaming bag of poop on a mans doorstep. A car falls off a clif with people in it. And a man attempts to shoot a woman. There is one F-word and many SH-words. Billy is drunk and I mean really drunk at the bigenning of the movie. He is so drunk he sees a giant penguin and chases it. A teacher said he was h***y to a student. Billy has a crush on a teacher and the end of the movie they have sex. Billy said a student wanted to make out with him. Over all it is a great movie.
