Adam Sandler established himself as the 'King of Senseless Comedy' with his signature work, Billy Madison. This flick, featuring a barrage of infantile humor, lends itself to repeated viewing for moviegoers who enjoy Sandler's brand of humor. The truth is that this film has much more to offer than extensive coverage of burning bags of feces. You have debates (shampoo is better, conditioner is better), coverage of nature and climate (it's too damn hot for a penguin to just be walking around), and...well, okay, there are no redeeming intellectual qualities. Sandler is simply himself, and he is supported by an outstanding cast including SNL alum Norm McDonald. Sandler is now firmly established after his follow-up hit Happy Gilmore and his eagerly awaited new filmThe Wedding Singer (co-starring Drew Barrymore), but it is as Billy Madison that Sandler shines the most. If senseless comedy is not your personal taste, after about 15 minutes you will be looking for a way to end the pain. However, if Sandler's brand of humor appeals to you, Billy Madison is an hour and half of laughs.
