Pros: Good acting, writing and direction Cons: Nothing major
I've been disappointed lately with a number of comedies which appeared to have potential. "License To Wed" was dreadful to give one very recent example. So, although the trailer for "I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry" promised an entertaining film, I ...

Pros: Hilarious and offensive Cons: The plot is hokey
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is a funny ha-ha movie about two manly fireman who have to pose as a gay couple in order for one to guarantee his pension benefits will go to his children. It stars Adam Sandler, Kevin James, and Jessica Biel. ...

Pros: Attempts to deliver a nice message about tolerance. Cons: But could have used a better method of delivery.
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is a so-so movie. Yes, there are a few laughs. And the movie attempts to deliver a pro-tolerance message. But there was also a lot of predictability, and a bunch of "I can't believe they just did that" ...

Pros: Good message, funny in some parts Cons: Some typical 'Stupid Sandler' punch lines
If you enjoy Saturday Night Live humour, especially when pertaining to poking fun at gays, you might like I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. Another Adam Sandler film does what they do best; parodies real life situations and ...

Pros: Two or three funny scenes, Jessica Biel is mighty, mighty. Cons: Too preachy, not funny
This of course was a rental for me from Netflix. I am trying not to buy anymore DVDs, only Blu-Rays from now on, and this was only available in HD-DVD and DVD formats. I'll admit that I wasn't expecting too much from Adam Sandler and the gang on this ...

Pros: One hilarious cameo from Dave Matthews. Cons: All I have to recommend is a 90 second cameo. Figure out the rest.
Two things you should know about me: 1) I am very, very easily entertained. Having watched hundreds of movies over the years, I can't think of a single film that hasn't managed to draw and keep my interest for 90 minutes. 2) I am not very easily ...

Pros: Very funny. Doesn't take sides. Shows shades of grey in a touchy subject. Cons: Well, it's no Citizen Cane - Don't go in expecting Oscar material.
From the Desk of a Self-Confessed Sandler Fan Despite his being forever tarred with the "lowbrow" brush, I have an increasingly large amount of time for Adam Sandler. There's something about his aura of self deprecation and geniality that makes ...

by homerboy , Jul 21 '07
Pros: Not much except for Jessica Biel and a number of other half-naked women. Cons: Stupid characters, horrific acting, ill-conceived jokes, the list goes on
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is rotten to the core, not just bad but spectactularly bad. As I walked out of the theater I was shocked at how unbelievably awful and unfunny the movie was and I couldnt imagine it being any worse. It ...

Pros: Some funny parts Cons: Predicitable, sterotypical, confused feelings.
I find Adam Sandler movies are a sort of hit or miss. He usually has totally hilarious hits or super, unfunny movies. Kevin James seems to be continually funny when I see him act in anything. This particular movie is a predictable, sort-of funny film ...

Pros: FUNNY and had a good message Cons: steriotypes
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry was a great movie. I am an adam sandler fan and thought this was just going to be another wacky movie that would make me laugh. I was surprised by this movie! This movie will not only make you laugh, but really make ...

Pros: Good cast of actors. Cons: Too long and not very funny.
For such a great cast of actors, I was expecting a funnier storyline than what was given. Adam Sandler gave an average performance but considering his movie history, this movie was expected to be better than it was. The overall concept was good, but it ...

Considering I wanted to see "Ratatoullie",this was ok
by kcbarbieq ,Jul 26 '07
Pros: The message in regards to gays, whether intentional or not. Cons: Some of it was a bit too silly
My almost grown kids dragged me into this one. I like Adam Sandler,and Kevin James is familiar. I think they both did an excellent job of acting, and I really DID laugh alot. Almost constantly, in fact.
I think one of the coolest parts about the whole movie was that it got someone like me who is so insensitive towards anyone claiming to be gay, to atleast consider the possibility that they have feelings,too,and no matter how they might really have ended up being gay, if putting up with the ignorance of straight people like me is easier than staying in the closet, I should show some respect. It CAN'T be an easy life.

i know pronounce you chuck and larry
by lvn777 ,Aug 02 '08
Pros: very saturday night livish Cons: creud humor, offensive to some viewers
extremely halarious, sandler did it again. There is nothing this man can't do that's just not downright gut busting funny. Couldn't have played this movie off any better. I think this would be just a beautiful movie for the anyone in the community, (except for children) It has a feeling of saturday night live humor.
