Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
pollardm-45339 Sure Sandlers made a few mediocre films, but this isn't one of them. Enough laughs , and crazy escapades here along with a few unexpected turns along the way. Too many 1 and 2 ratings here from I'm sure people that dont like any shock value in their comedy, or those that are easily offended.. . Some pop culture references and a light hearted look at the has-been thing in the media - with Vanilla Ice and Todd Bridges serving tacos in a food van. Both join in on the inevitable ride and crazy escapades... Cool 80's rock soundtrack too... Probably not the film to watch with your mother - but maybe a few friends would be better!
legomyfuego From the brilliant mind of Adam Sandler comes this terrible, unfunny movie that's more of a chore to sit through than it is an actual product made to provide entertainment. This isn't even a so-bad-it's-good movie. If you find statutory rape funny, you'll think this is hilarious. The "humor" in this movie is so childish and unfunny, a 12-year-old might as well have written the script. From a child having sex with their teacher in a crowded school assembly, to an awkward Vanilla Ice cameo, this movie is pure cinematic abortion. Also, there's incest, so that's cool. Anyway, if there's any useful advice I can give you in this review, it is to avoid this movie by any means. Please. For your sake.
sakiververis For those of us who grew up on Sandler, listened to the comedy tapes, watched Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore at least once month, respected Big Daddy, loved Little Nicky and weren't afraid to admit it--we will always love Sandler. The more mass market stuff gets a lot of hate, and I'll admit I'm not into them for the most part, although (let's be honest) his romcoms are the best in the biz. But this movie is not a mass market movie. It is crass, its main character is mostly despicable, it threads a tough needle through some very taboo subject matter like statutory rape, incest, and stolen valor. Yet somehow Sandler rises to the challenge of poking fun at this material and makes his character, Donnie Berger, an all around endearing person. Sandberg clearly understands Sandler's sense of humor and plays the perfect straight man to Sandler's over the top Mass hole character. As a person who grew up in the Boston suburbs, Sandler does an amazing job capturing the stereotypical Boston alpha male. He hams it way up, but he's consistent and it works. My only regret is coming late to the party. I wish I had seen this sooner. Like other classic Sandler movies, TmB has high re-watch value. I'm looking forward to watching again and again and again.
Fred Smith I'm not the biggest Sandler fan, but he has hit the nail on the head with his 80's movies. Wedding Singer was great coming from the new wave side of things. And Thats my boy is even better with the more hard rock soundtrack and much raunchier than the Wedding Singer. Found myself laughing out loud for about the entire movie. Yes, its based on some perverted stuff, but heck, Back in 84 what do you think Hot for teacher was about? Comedy has gotten much raunchier than the classic funny movie of my youth like Animal House and Caddyshack. Soundtrack is great. Having gone to High School in the mid 80's I can relate to all the classic songs from the soundtrack. I don't recall this even being in the theater and its never on cable. Just happen to catch it one night. And you have to see it on real cable. Could only imagine a Tnt version of this movie. If you like raunchy comedies like Revenge of the Nerds and Fast Times, you should really get into this movie also..
