Little Nicky

Pros: Harvey Keitel and Two Devil Worshiping Rockers
Cons: A classic... yeah.. sale's bin classic

Little Nicky 2000 Little Nicky is like watching a train crash. You just cant look away. The only different is that instead of being about the sad, its about the funny. Now, I cant really sit here and say that this is a great movie. Really, ...

Pros: Short film. A few - very few - bits and cameos mildly amusing
Cons: Mostly awful and unfunny. Not short enough.

The opening scene of this film lets you know exactly what type of movie you have gotten yourself into. A peeping tom falls out of a tree to his death. His soul plummets to hell and satan decides his fitting punishment: to be chased by a giant horny bird...

Pros: Reese Witherspoon looked cute in her cameo as an angel
Cons: This movie is not at all funny...not AT ALL

It is pretty rare that I can't watch an entire movie. I mean a movie has to be pretty horrible for me to not sit through it. Lucky for me, I had rented Little Nicky on DVD so I could skip right to the end. If I had been watching it on tape, I would...

Pros: Adam Sandler is always entertaining, the comedy in the movie works, for the most part.
Cons: I didn't like the premise, but it is surprisingly entertaining.

This weekend was a good weekend for me. The wife and I settled in for our favorite pastime eating junk food and watching DVDs. The two we had to watch this weekend were Little Nicky and Saving Grace, we had heard about both of the films when...

Pros: Adam Sandler, Mr. Beefy, and a few others
Cons: Sandler is restricted in his comedy by being presented with a speech impediment, smashed face, and a really bad haircut. Often times, Facial expressions are important. The portrayl of Little Nicky does not allow for this.

As a big Adam Sandler fan, I have to wonder, Did I find this movie as funny as I did merely because I wanted it to be?, or, Was it genuinely funny? and my power of suggestion to find this film funny, combined with the anticipation of it, had nothing to...

Pros: some fresh ideas, fun cameo appearances
Cons: kind of dumb!

We actually thought this movie was pretty funny, I'm sort of embarrassed to admit. Let me defend myself here.

We have lived in this small town for a year now. During this time, we have been stupefied by boredom. We moved here from Austin,...

Pros: Typical Adam Sandler movie
Cons: Typical Adam Sandler movie

My, my, my. Haven't people griped about this film? I've heard plenty of complaints, but they all seem to amount to one simple thing -- we've all seen this film before.

What do I mean? I mean that Sandler has banked on the same formula for...

Pros: funny, Adam Sandler, great cast, good acting, and much more
Cons: language and content aren't suitable for children, could be offensive.

I admit it, Little Nicky made me laugh. I know that some of the things in this movie would be considered very offensive, for instance breasts on a man's head and a large horny bird, but I couldn't help myself. It was funny. If you expect Adam...

Pros: Cast, some of the comedy, special effects
Cons: Bad script, terrible ending

The biggest problem with Little Nicky is that it's a movie so lazy and inept that it's not trying. For that, the movie did deserve to fail at the box office. While I have nothing but respect and admiration for people who make movies, I won't for those ...

Pros: Several super cameos and a surprisingly decent ending
Cons: The first sixty minutes are some of the most painful cinematic moments ever.

A funny thing happened on my way to crowning Little Nicky one of the five or ten worst films of the past ten years. I was all set to spend an entire review observing that in the history of tripe, there's rarely been tripe quite so stinky as this film....

Pros: With a premise like this, some of it HAS to be funny -- plus buttloads of celebrity cameos
Cons: The usual gutter humor that writes itself, and Sandler's character is obnoxious and annoying

Kevin Smith wrote the script for Dogma years before he filmed it – even attempting a religious satire of that sort requires the credibility and ability to talk a studio into financing it. Makes me wonder if longtime script collaborators Adam...

Pros: The Cameos were priceless.
Cons: Forced plot details.

Q: What do you get when you combine Mickey Mouse and Porn??
A: Kevin Nealon

okay...just keep reading and it will make sense at some point.

Plot: 6 out of 10
Okay there was some stupid plot glitches that...

Pros: the cameos and the dog
Cons: too much emphasis on special effects.

Please don't misunderstand me; I love Adam Sandler movies. I thoroughly enjoyed Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Waterboy and Big Daddy. It didn't really bother me that all four movies followed the same formula (ie a loveable goofy sort of guy faces a...

Pros: Tarantino (surprisingly), other minor characters
Cons: everything else

I like films based on fantastic phenomenon. Time Bandits is one of my favorite films of all time. The classic struggle between good and evil also holds interest for me. Just thinking about the original Star Wars films leaves me with a...

Pros: read the review
Cons: read the review

Adam Sandler's latest flick has him playing the son of the devil. Must.... resist.... obvious.... one-liner! But seriously folks I'm starting to think Mr. Sandler must be the most powerful person in Hollywood because every celebrity on the planet is ...
