All the haters wtf did you expect

This is the typical raunchy comedy that Happy Madison productions does. I wouldn't pay to see this movie, nor go out of my way to see it but seeing it on encore right now it is not bad for what it is. I find it pretty damn funny....The scene in the theater, his twin sister leaving sweat stains on her bed, al pacino break down, the homeless man , shaq were all funny .

Maybe another reason why I like it is cause the actors in the movie are all from the previous Happy Madison productions, thus making is a little nostalgic and I like those guys sort of humor. Billy Masdison, Happy Gilmore, Dirty Work, Grandmas Boy, etc.

Though I don't have a real big problem with sandler being the female twin, I think they could have gotten Sara Silverman to play the twin and the movie would have gotten better reviews from the masses.

i agree. it was a pretty funny movie. its brainless humour. I don't know what people were expecting. If you go into this movie thinking it's oscar worthy or have some deep meaning to it, then you are watching this movie for the wrong reasons.

No offense, but I really hate it when people say stuff like this. Of course people weren't expecting Oscar-worthy stuff. Do you really think anyone set the standard for this movie that high. They hated it because they thought it was unfunny and lazy. Pretty legit argument for a film like this if you ask me.

And particularly unfunny and lazy as it cost $79,000,000 to make.

Literally nobody went into this movie expecting an Oscar winner or deep meanings.

I was thinking Mayim Bialik...he really looked a lot like her in some scenes.

I was expecting it to be terrible and was not disappointed. This wasn't even up to the standards of previous Happy Madison type movies.

I always refer to "Superbad" which is supposedly hilarious. I think it sucks. So who gives a toss about other people's opinions?
