Summary: DEFINITELY THE YEAR'S BEST COMEDY !
Review: Nicholson was hilarious. Sandler and Tomei were great. Supporting cast includes Turturro, Reilly, Guzman and Harrelson as a joyous German transvestite from a little village named "lickensiedicken"! It's also Harrelson and Tomei second time in the same movie after "welcome to sarajevo" ! Say goosfraaba folks !

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Total waste of time
Review: I rented this DVD for .99 cent. I got ripped off!!!! I had a hard time watching the whole thing. I will never watch another Adam Sandler movie. I hope Jack Nicholson can do something better in the future but I'm going to be cautious before seeing anything with him in it too. The only bright spot in this movie is Marisa Tomei but her scenes are brief. This one doesn't deserve 1 star.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Painful to watch Jack in this type of film
Review: In a word.. Awful. This was the worst movie of 2003, even worse than About Schmidt. Painfully slow coupled with juvenile one-liners
I usually love Nicholson movies, but this is the pits.
It was Adam Sandler in the Wedding Singer, without the wooly hair
0 stars from me, but I had to enter 1 star..zero was not available

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Shouldn't this movie be funny?
Review: I looked forward to seeing this movie and waited until it recently hit dvd to rent it. I'm so glad I saved my money doing so. In what should've been a really funny movie turned out to be a very slow paced, laugh every 20 minutes type movie. In my opinion Sandler's last comedy (Mr. Deeds)was his worst comedy movie but this one soon may take over. This film truly suffers from being too predictable and WAY too many jokes about the size of Sandler's character's manhood (got old after the first joke yet it seems like it's mentioned in every scene). The acting is good though it's just not the comedy it should be, especially with these two going head to head. Jack doesn't take too many roles like this and you would expect him to pull off a Deniro type performance (what was up with the I Feel Pretty song, which was also used in Analyze That, wasn't it). Hearing Deniro sing a showtune was funny but it felt old and stale once Jack started singing it.

It's too bad that this movie didn't live up to it's expectations because it could've been one of those great comedies. Sandler like I said is really lacking it these days and that's kinda sad but he basically plays the same type character in every film anyways and Punch Drunk Love wasn't his Jim Carrey type turn he was hoping for. Sadly both Sandler and Carrery seemed to loose a step or two but hopefully like Carrey, Sandler can rebound with a hit like Jim did with Bruce Almighty.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Just when ya thought you knew what unfunny is, comes this...
Review: At present, the only thing i could think of that would be unfunnier than this sorry excuse for a comedy is that Jack Nicholson has reduced himself to this. If it weren't for his past we'd be talking guaranteed career suicide, Hugh Grant style.

"Anger management" is actually incredibly accurate in its title, as any viewer with a functioning cerebrum will testify: if you (for whatever reason) do sit through this film you will definately not get up in a calm mood. If you paid to see it you will need some money management therapy too. And if you rented it throw in some time management for desert.

Dont worry, no spoilers ahead, because there's no need to go over the plot for such a waste of celluloid.
I'll keep it to the extreme basics here: a totally silly, seriously unfunny film, with Nicholson playing the shrink of a guy who needs anger management. The plot could have easily been written by a 1000 monkeys typing away randomly at typewriters.
There is (i hear) an attempt at humor in this film. If this holds true (i didnt discover any such success in it) then i must be totally lacking at humor. But hey, what do i know, i thought "A fish called Wanda" was funny, but obviously there must be a new frequency of humor around that I'm not catching on to.
Avoid it is if there's no tomorrow.
Give it as birthday present to someone you genuingly dislike.
Make an activist-group against unfunny films purporting to be comedies.
Write a letter to your local congreesman and complain.
Do something.
But do not waste your valuable remaining time from what's stolen from you every day on this.

Summary: Give her a Five Second Frencher?
Review: Adam Sandler... Jack Nicholson... a great team! A bad effort, Well the story starts when Dave (Sandler) is growing up in a urban neighborhood, The movie shows that he is not well... having the best childhood he could've had. I won't spoil anything but the beginning just leaves you with an odd look on your face, laughing saying "Hahaha it gets better just you wait!" Well it doesnt... Sandler gets on a flight to a business meeting about 25 years later. Well if you have seen the commercial you know what happens. "Mam can I get a pair of headphones", "One second sir", "Mam can you hurry it up I've been waiting for 10 minutes", "Sir calm down!", "etc..etc..." and presto he winds up in anger management.

Now I know what your thinking "Whats he talking about?" well the humor is well mostly dry. A few "classic" sandler stuff but nothing to get hyped up about. The ending literally made me cry it was so funny. But that was it. The beginning, the end and the ridiculous line "Goosfraba"

If I could choose between having a "five second frencher" with my girlfriend or this movie. I would probably choose the five second Frencher. Considering I could probably have more fun in five seconds then in 106 minutes.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What Were They Thinking??
Review: By mere statistics, this movie should have amounted to something when adding the talent of these stars together. But it actually amounts to less. This is the worst comedy I have ever seen.

But did it ever try to make me laugh. The effort was apparent. So was it's blah-formula, a sure thing when trying to get as many people into the theatres as possible. In fact, this movie didn't have to be good. Smart people read reviews before they watch a movie. The rest are stupid mindless wanderers who believe that this film is as good as it gets. They accept the corny premise, and the corny outcome.

Another factory-produced, unfunny, and boring film that depressed me to the core. When the only funny thing in the movie is a stupid fat cat (because every movie now needs a goofy animal to make you laugh at the trailer) something is wrong.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very entertaining
Review: a spectacularly funny movie that demonstrates Sandler's appreciable talent when given a powerfully written script and equally adept co-star.

There is so much wit and expert acting in this film - I'm not sure what all the critics were expecting.

A bitingly humorous and refreshing departure from the slapstick dumbguy tactics of so many other comedies.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: About what I expected--funny at times and stupid
Review: My expectations were not really high with this movie. With Sandler it is hit or miss. This movie made me laugh several times, making it worth the time and expense. There are some really funny one-liners and conversations. Of course, you have to check your brain at the door and don't ask questions. But if you like Sandler, this is right up your alley. There is the usual amount of offensive language and behavior--sexual references, lesbian kissing, cursing--that are present in most of Sandler's films. The presence of Nicholson and Marissa Tomei brings this film up a notch from some previous Sandler films. For a good laugh, I recommend it.
