Review

essentially a series of one-liners from comedian friends. i counted six ex-snl people and if you’ve seen any adam sandler films in the last 15 years you know what you’re going to get in terms of content. the plot is thin and isn’t overly back-weighted so that was good. a lot of these comedies go quickly into the comedy and then save all the plot stuff for the end of the film which leaves an unbalanced film. the plot here was sprinkled here and there and was real thin anyway so it never gets in the way of the fart jokes. clearly not an elevation of humanity, but a funny film anyway.
