I recently just saw this movie for the first time. I know it's been out for a long time, I just didn't seem too interested with the plot. However the other night I was bored and since it's one of the few Adam Sandler movies I've never seen I decided to give it a chance. And I have to say...I LOVED IT! This movie is laugh out loud funny from begining to end, but also has some great messages that you can really take to heart! I had no idea that I would enjoy this movie so much. That being said, this movie is best for kids that around 14 and up. Possibly a very mature 13 year old. The language is pretty harsh, but its used in a mainly non-explicit context that I wouldn't consider to be "too vulgar" but it's still said, so if you're kids aren't mature enough to hear the f-word, then don't let them watch this! Their is also quite a bit of sexual stuff in this movie as well, although it's not as bad as some stuff out there these days, mainly it's just mature jokes,that could easily go right over a kid's head. Great movie, highly reccommend it for kids 14 and up!
Not as bad as his other movies, but the ending and crappy jokes killed it
Adam Sandler just can't make good movies. With the exception of The Wedding singer and Punch drunk Love, all of Sandler's movies are some of the worst excuses for a movie on earth. How can anyone think they are good? It's insane! Have teens really devolved in taste so much that they would give Waterboy or Billy Madison five freaking stars? I'm sorry, but it is so pathetic.
No way. We found this show one we would not repeat. As an adult, I don't like to listen to that much foul language and the sexual talk was over the top. It made little sense and I was frustrated through the entire show. Senseless plot and not a good role model for solving problems in life.
Another Adam Sandler movie. His movies are hilarious and not really all that inappropriate. Anger Management is his usual comedy (not like Punch Drunk Love) but the sexual themes make it a bit more suggestive than Big Daddy. Still, I would give it the oscar so easily.
Adam Sandler showed in Punch Drunk Love that he can be a great sincere actor. Here he does the same stupid, disconnected performance that gets him money. Why not be daring and make another good movie? Is he scared? Jim Carrey pulled it off with The Truman Show, Man on the Moon, and the Majestic.
Sorry, this isn't an actual review (look at my other one below)
I know thi is somewhat sad but I have to say: THIS IS PATHETIC! HOW ON EARTH WOULD ANYONE CONSIDER GIVING THIS MOVIE AN OSCAR?!?! I asked in a nother review if teens today had lost all taste in movies, and I think my question has been answered (Forknose, I'm looking at you and your other Sandler reviews).
