Little Nicky (2000)

Wonderful Movie

Sadly Over-hyped

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

When it comes to classic, good ol' Adam Sandler, this movie is hit or miss. And for me, it's mostly hit. Not to say this a perfect film, as it's far from it, but compared to his newer movies, this is definitely the better film. The performances were great for what they were, the story is decent, and overall, this film is awesome. The humor in this movie is stupid, but it's done in a way that it is still funny, and that's one of the main reasons why I like this film a lot more than his newer films. However, the flaws in this film are pretty big in this movie. One, is the story. While I said that it was decent, and I think it is, it can be a bit predictable at times. Another, being the flow of the film, as it can sometimes feel either rushed or stretched out, and it can get sloppy at times. Lastly, being the premise, as it can can seem a bit off and sometimes mean-spirited. Overall, this movie may not be Adam Sandler's best, but it is definitely one of his better films and I think anyone who hasn't seen it yet will definitely enjoy the hilarious randomness and stupidity, that is Little Nicky, like I have, because it is indeed, a stupid comedy movie that mostly works.

Little Nicky is the story of the son of an angel and "the" devil. It is not a smart comedy but it is hilarious and a good time. Just hang back and enjoy. It is definitely funny and the cameo's make it worth it. Stars like Ozzy and a good sh*t-ton of heavy metal music make for a good time. If you have some portion of morbid humor and like some heavy metal, I'd say bring some friends over and have a good time.

Nicky (Adam Sandler) is the bullied runt of the devil (Harvey Keitel). His two brothers Adrian (Rhys Ifans) and Cassius (Tommy Lister) are angry that their father refused to hand over the reins. They escaped to earth leaving Hell blocked up and no soul can through. The devil is deteriorating and little Nicky is the only one who can go to retrieve his brothers. Valerie Veran (Patricia Arquette) comes to help him when his magic flask is stolen.The basic concept of this movie is actually pretty good and has great comedic possibilities. I almost laugh at times but Adam Sandler's ridiculous performance really hurts the movie. It borders between stupidity which is good and annoying which is bad. That's the movie in a nutshell. I want to laugh at the stupidity but the annoyance keeps me from liking it. There are great actors in this including aging icon Rodney Dangerfield but this is all about Adam Sandler. I wish he had somebody willing to tell him that Nicky isn't funny.

This Film Is As Annoying As It Is Stupid. I Have NEVER Seen A Character So In Your Face With His Personality Outside Austin Powers...& I LIKE Those Movies.The Only Joke That Made Me Laugh Is The Horny Bird But That Was Too Early In The Piece For Anything. Everything Else Is Like A Night At A Crappy Comedy Club.The Acting Is Too Wooden For Anyone To Care About Anything Or For The Jokes To Be...You Know...Funny.The Character Development Is Like Caring For A Bunch Of Extra's That Get Killed In A Bomb Explosion In An Action Movie.The Dialogue Has Already Been Assessed.I Only Like One Other Film That Has This Rating And That Is "Leigion". As Far As Other Comedies Go If You Liked "Deuce Bigalow European Gigilo", "You Don't Mess With The Zohan" & "Vampires Kiss" Where There Are No Jokes Then Go Ahead.Also I Find It Repetitive How In These Movies Rob Schneider Plays A Minor Character Saying The Words "You Can Do It" In Them. That Joke Is Way Too Old
