Disadvantages: Not many people will give it a chance

...is forced to give it a go once he destroys the real Gigolo's very expensive hand made fish tank. Deuce gets a pimp, and along the way meets all sorts of strange women. He even manages to fall in love with one of them, lose her, then steal her back in the happy ending. As a side theme in this movie is a crazy police man afraid his wife is cheating on him. He is out to crush Deuce and his Pimp, the Police Officer is really in the film to show us what could happen, in the worst case, if you neglect your wife to long. Deuce Bigalo is a great story, with many scenes done as parody of the film, The Matrix. Deuce Bigalo is an enjoyable film, filled with many laughs, but isn't for everyone. You need a sense of humor. It is a love story and a comedy all in one.... Read review

Unlike my previous review, the Incredibles, this film has a set target audience and wants to willingly manipulate it. Some of you out there might be put off by the gauge humour or the toilet jokes that come faster than complaints after the BBC shows 'Jerry Springer: The Opera'. Whatever though, was I bothered? Was I heck! In my own opinion, Deuce Bigalow holds two distinctions. Firstly it is the funniest Rob Schneider film I have seen to date, although I am admitting freely I am not familiar with all his work. The Animal was atrocious, and the Hot Chick was watchable but a little uninspired. Secondly it is one of the funniest films I have seen in recent... Read review
