Jack and Jill (2011)

Very Cool!!!

Great Film overall

As Good As It Gets

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Well, when I watched Jack and Jill the first time.. it was strange to me and it was cringe worthy but then I found my self laugh at some parts and can't believe that Adam Sandler would make of it a real comedy movie.. it is absolutely a real silly comedy movie just wrapped so it holds a meaning at the end.It hold exaggerated variety of characters that you "may" laugh at their actions, you will see big and well known names act in this movie in weird parts but still I didn't fell I wasted my time. This movie just to be rented for a laugh at silly things happen! .. there are so many parody movies that they are supposed to be funny but they could not pull a smile from me more than this one (which is not basically a parody movie!).

This movie is disrespectful of the viewer and is nothing more than one long commercial. I know, that sounds like an exaggeration. Unfortunately it's actually an understatement. Right from the first scene he's promoting Pepto Bismol (!!) and Diet Coke. Next scene American Airlines. And so on....for the ENTIRE MOVIE. Oh yeah, he's an "ad executive," which gives them convenient opportunities to show actual full length commercials. This includes a massive commercial for Dunkin Donuts that is even longer than a normal commercial you would see on TV. They even incorporate Dunkin Donuts into the main plot.So, somehow this....movie....has a budget of $79,000,000. This is a huge budget, and many fantastic movies have been made on similar or lower budgets. Yet this movie looks like it was made on a budget of under $1,000,000. There are indie films made for WELL under a million that look much better. WHERE DID THE MONEY GO? Oh, that's right, it went to paying Adam Sandler. This entire thing was a cash grab.Adam Sandler is playing audiences for a fool.

I watched this with my partner because we thought 'it might be so bad that we could get a laugh from it'. There were no laughs, or giggling, not even scoffing. This movie was just plain boring.Imagine this: You're at a social event and you hear two people bickering, it's not endearing, you don't care about them, you just watch them hoping it will stop, since you also don't give a rat's ass about what they're bickering over.That's this movie.Or Imagine this: You're watching paint dry.That's this movie. Just imagine Adam Sandler arguing against Adam Sandler. I can't imagine anything worse. A double dose of Adam Sandler. Actually, Jill was more endearing than the man himself and she's an annoying character on purpose, who we are supposed to dislike. But to be honest, Sandler's character was the lamest out of all. Once again, Sandler tries to big himself up 'the righteous family man,with a hot wife, who is plagued by his annoying sister! He tries to keep calm and have a nice relationship with her, but alas, she's just too much!" His character was exactly the same type he has played for the last ten years and that's why I say Jill is actually a tiny bit likable. But even so I would not recommend this Adam Sandler show to anybody. Fart jokes, awful CG gags, distasteful jokes about Mexicans being gardeners and crossing the border (how is Hollywood still not sick of these? Do we still find it funny?), jokes about Jews, product placement, hysterical screaming.... Oh, Jhonny Depp makes a cameo for some reason... Not even a smile. I actually don't know how I stayed awake through this.

I was working at a juvenile recovery center and was forced to take some of the clients to see this movie. Since I can't come up with five lines to describe how bad this movie is, I will just say the following: suck, suck. I hope Adam Sanders burns in he'll for this movie. SUCK, SUCK, plays both parts of brother and sister, both should have died at birth. SUCK,SUCK. Please stop making movies like this. Leaving the theater after the movie was over was the only highlight.
