BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Adithya Siva If there wasn't Nicholson in this movie, there would've been people waiting to be rescued from the theaters. Nicholson arrives just in time to lift a rather slim storyline. There are a lot of funny moments, but it just ends up getting repetitive after a while. There's only so much a Sandler-film-viewer can tolerate, you know. I'm not going to give any of the plot away. You can pretty much guess what it'd be after the first couple of minutes after the movie starts. But only when the story becomes totally clichéd that Nicholson steps in to lift the movie with his bare hands. It is only him and Marisa Tomei that lift the film from the bottom and make it somewhat watchable. Adam Sandler is an actor with so much potential, but ends up making rom-coms and plainly senseless comedies. I'd love to see him in a role similar to the one in Punch Drunk Love for which he actually got nominated for a Golden Globe. He can act. There was never any doubt in that. People would just like to see more of its display in the coming years.

2karl- well this film had hit right all over it from the start this is slapstick heartfelt comedy with two great actors and a brilliant support crew like Marisa tomie woody harrelson john turturro and heather graham David (adam Sander character having a shyness for public affection since his childhood days so Dave has issues that have been helped and gets unto a small misunderstanding on a plane that leads to a wacky therapist called buddy rydell played a insane jack Nicholson he messes with Davids life so much so his anger comes out so with outrageous funny moments he has to stay with his therapist court orders and try different technique in order to cure him as buddy steps up his unorthodox treatment chatting up women in bars crashing cars chasing Buddha monks hilarious chatting up a hooker dressed as men buddy chase his girl so ends up a finding out who Dave really is and this film is a part musical as well it has to be seen to believed fun 7/10

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.

angelicardour We all know that some of Adam Sandlers movies can be… well… childish. There's no denying that. And in watching this movie it is easy to see some of that floating around. But, opposite Jack Nicholson, a bit of growth is given to his comedy and it finds a happy medium.I had the benefit of having watched the last half of the movie a while back before today, when I watched it from the beginning. Normally that would hinder ones outlook on the movie – but not this one. I watched today with my boyfriend and my best friend. My best friend and I knew the ending, but my boyfriend had never seen it before. About a half hour in he was staring at the screen with a weird look on his face. When I asked him what was wrong he said something along the lines of "I thought this was supposed to be a realistic type movie… I'm not sure what's going on."Now, my boyfriend is a bright man so I tried to see it from his point of view. That's when the epiphany hit. If I had watched this from beginning to end I would have hated it. I would have thought it was a dumb and dumber rip off only worse. Yet if they had made the movie any differently it would have sucked. Interesting, right?So here's my advice to you. Go find the movie. Rent it, watch it on TV, buy it, whatever. Then before you watch the whole movie, watch just the ending. Then you'll figure out what I mean.
