Summary: Oh God, I love this movie!
Review: OK, I'll admit that this isn't the most appropriate movie for children, but then again, aren't most of Adam Sandler's movies like that? I think that's what makes them funny; the crude humor. That's the problem with the movies coming out for kids lately: they're very lowbrow and cheesy. This is an animated movie that reaches more toward the teenage audience with a liking for bathroom-type humor and Adam Sandler's genius. A very memorable part from the movie for me is when Whitey was cleaning an outhouse for a dollar and Davey pushes it down a hill. Whitey emerges from the outhouse covered in human sewage and Davey then appears with a hose and sprays Whitey until he's a frozen block of crap. I love that part. "Smell ya later, Poopsicle!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I have to give it five stars, even though it had its moments
Review: Okay there were a few moments that I thought the film crossed the line, but overall this was an excellent film.

I thought it did a wonderful job of not just making me laugh, but cry and even more so think. Something I've come to realize after watching some of Sandler's latter works is how big his heart really is. From noticing names in the credits that I have to admire him for to just having a big heart.

It isn't the best animation but given what the film took to be made it was lucky it got made. Here are points that I thought the film did a wonderful job of.

1. Making its characters real, not some fantasy realm characters, but characters with defects like we all have, some of us have them more noticeable then others.

2. seeing one of many ways a good kid can become less then a good kid.

3. giving us something other then christmas, I was happy to see someone make a film about a Jewish Holiday and by someone that is proud to be what he is.

4. for actually giving me something to show my kids, hey while many of you crab about it not being a kids film or etc. I think it works well for kids. Kids aren't stupid and they see the world for what it is and its nice to let them see the story that lies beyond view. Because we all know a guy like whitey that takes a lump but never lets it phase him, or a guy like davey that drinks his problems away, or even the single mom that is just trying to make it work. And if you talk openly with your kids and don't try and hide them from the real world then they'll ask questions and you can talk.

5. Because Deer really don't care about poopsicles just humans.

You don't need to be an Adam Sandler fan to love this movie. My wife was iffy but then cried, laughed, and shivered (the whole porta potty scene). She loved it and thought it was great and thanked me for chaining her to the chair to watch it with me.

Don't worry honey I'll unchain you when I get back from the store.

well that's my 2 cents worth. Adam you have one heck of a heart, one helluva [...] sense of humor, and a nice way of spinning things in.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Good Movie.
Review: This is a very funny movie. I just saw it yesterday! It has some sad parts in it but they aren't too sad. Whitey is my favorite character because of the way he has seizures. So is his sister, Elanore. At least this movie has a plot! You'll laugh non-stop! I did. Even my dad liked ikt. So see this movie today!

Rated: PG-13 For Sexual/Crude Humor and Language.

Running Time: 79 Minutes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Adam Sandler is great as a cartoon!!!
Review: This movie is absolutely hilarious. Although my friends are questioning my character (hah) for loving this kinda-gross, politically incorrect movie, it's the best, and I watch it whenever I need a good laugh. It's definitely not for kids though, and not for the sensitive. Oh, and if you can't stand poop, don't watch it. Hah.
