What the heck was that?
85.7% think this movie is a 5 star rating, did these people see the same movie i did???, I thought Adam Sandler was a below average actor to begin with, but now - Adam you owe your fans 2 hours of their lives back you loser!
I thought it was an excellent movie and Adam Sandler`s best work. I highly recommend it!
we felt dumber for watching it....made no sense, dumb dumb
"You may be captivated, as I was, by its moods, and by its subtly transformed star, and still wonder why Paul Thomas Anderson ever had the inclination to make the most sincere and artful movie in which Adam Sandler will probably ever appear." -- Owen Gleiberman, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
"Anderson has created the kind of unconventional `romantic comedy` we might expect from him." -- James Berardinelli, JAMES BERARDINELLI`S REELVIEWS
Such an amazine movie! Sandler can act. This is a thinking person`s film.
"[Sandler] plays Barry just as he would any of the comic dolts who`ve made him rich but this time all the panicky sadness is out where we can see it. It`s a honey of a performance: controlled, achingly human, and funny in the deepest ways." -- Ty Burr, BOSTON GLOBE
if you like weird, unusual things that are out of the everyday boring lens, i highly recommend this flick. adam s. was odd and interesting at the same time.
a misanthropic mess, in the guise of an American art film a la American Beauty or Pulp Fiction, but with much less to recommend it. The acting is passable, but the nonsensical elements distract, as do the overly-gratuitous profanity and violence, from what might have been a charmingly eccentric effort. The result - chaotic, unintelligible, unsatisfying. A waste of time and talent and movie-goers` money.
