Hmm... but this one is (re)written by actually funny guys. It may actually be humorous.

Looks decent to me. And any movie with a 5.0 like that is watchable.

I would make as many "bad" movies as Hollywood would let me for the cash hes making off them.

He should have stopped after Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore was alright also, probably one of the best movies that I've seen him in lately was Reign Over Me.

Looks so bad. But go watch the red-band trailer. It's worth watching for the last line

kinda funny you put it that way, considering those were basically first two movies where he was the star...

that being said, Punch-Drunk Love is probably his best movie, but that was 10 years ago...lot of crap between then and now...a lot

You know this movie is going to rock when "Vanilla Ice" is listed as a cast member!

I hate Andy Samberg.

Adam's "nice guy down on his luck" character needs to go away. Need to put him in a more serious role.

I'd make a shitty movie if I could too though, just one and I'd be set for life practically.

Which would you rather have:
1. Millions of dollars (and some people on the internet raging against you).
2. The income of an average person.

And Andy Samberg, wow this will be full of fail.

Actually it will draw a lot of teenagers, so it might do ok financially, even though we all know it will be awful.

I would guess Jeniffer Aniston has to be in it. Nothing makes a better combination than Aniston and Sandler.

Redlettermedia theorized that Adam Sandler's makes films as sort of Ponzi scheme. He uses his box office and financial pull to produce cheaply made films, which he loads with advertising, so he and his former SNL friends can cash in. The films themselves have zero artistic merit and were never intended to have any. Audiences are drawn to these films because Sandler is a known figure.

Sandler can act, as he showed in Punch Drunk Love. But he's a terrible director and writer who betrays his own craft for the sake of money. It's a shame he chose to follow the easy way out rather than building on his talents.

Adam Sandler only makes bad movies.

He's yet another "comedian" who some folks rave about...but whose movies I just can't stand. (which is too bad, because some of his earlier stand-up is good)

His movies keep making money. That is why he keeps making them. Jack and Jill which by all acounts was a pure shitfest cost 79 million to make with 140 million in box office sales.

That was a good review.

The second part is where he talks about Sandler movies being practically a scam.


Only you can prevent Adam Sandler movies. Stop watching them!

Just Go With It

Well, that movie was pretty much sold on the T&A appeal of the blonde woman as that was just about the entire trailer. So, that's not a bad one given she was definitely easy on the eyes, and Jennifer Anniston was nice too. I was a bit surprised during that waterfall/lake-thing scene when she got down to a bikini. I thought, "I had no idea she had a body like that."
