Adam Sandler stars as the goofy son of a multi billionaire, hotel owner who had a life dream to hand his hotel chain down to his son. However, Adam Sandler likes to chase penguins, sing songs about sun tan lotion and cant string full sentences together let alone own the business!
He makes a bet to his father that if he completes 12 grades in just 6 months he can have the business. Just to make it more difficult for him to do this, his fathers business partner wants the business so makes it harder for him to complete the grades.
Sandler goes to school, completes the grades, acts a total fool and falls in love with the teacher and even makes wetting your pants look cool(you have to watch it!), only to find his real passion is in teaching.
This film is a total must for any Adam Sandler fan and will guarantee you laughter and leave you walking away with a smile! Adam Sandler is my favourite comedy actor and in my opinion this film is definetly top of my list - along with Happy Gilmore!

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD features. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
