The best Adam sandler/ Rob Schneider film to date

Advantages: Great raw humour, fun Hawaiian soundtrack and a three timing walrus. what more could you want?
Disadvantages: unfunny if you don't like Adam Sandler. should have had Kate Beckinsale as lucy not Barrymore

Adam Sandler is a comedy film genius. Not to everyones taste and not the most sophisticated of humour either but still hilarious. This film does not disappoint those who are Sandler fans. The summary of the story is that Hawaiian marine biologist Henry Roth (Sandler) has had loads of women but never a serious relationship, making up excuses like married, gay, secret agent. He then meets Lucy ( Drew Barrymore) at the local cafe who he takes an interest ...
...due to an accident involving a car, a tree and a cow. Roth then proceeds to try and win her over , except she doesn't remember him for more than a day, so he has to get her to love him every day. Rob Schneider is great in the film as Henry roth's cousin Ula, especially the part where they make a recording on a video camera and he is paying the role of Lucy and wearing a coconut bra. Sean Austin aka Mr Frodo Samwise Gangee stands out as Doug, the ...

Review of What Happens In Vegas (DVD)

My Big Fat Greek Wedding- My big fat Laughs!

Advantages: Laugh out loud, hialrious comedy
Disadvantages: Bit predictable

My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a story of Toula's, (played by Nina Vardalos) rocky road to get married in this delectable comedy. The film is adapted from Nina Vardalos's one-woman off Broadway show. Nina is a Greek-American who is 30-odd and unfortunatly for her parents very much single! Her mother, played by Lainie Kazan and her father, played by Michael Constantine, desperately want to get her married to a Greek boy. Nina works in the family restaurant ...
...to Toulas parents!! My Big Fat Greek Wedding uses stereotypes in a delightful blend of sweet romance and lovingly dished out humour. This movie is fantastic and extremely funny, especially if you can relate to the story line. This movie was nice for me as the family was not you typical type, it shows other cultures and is something different. Toula's brash aunt, comedian Andrea Martin was the highlight for me. I found her side splitting funny, especially ...

Review of My Big Fat Greek Wedding (DVD)

Brilliant DVD, endless laughing from start to finish, genius!

Advantages: Brilliant, unique, funny, hilarious, comical, will make you fall off your seat!
Disadvantages: Wanted more and more!!

When Michael McIntyre broke onto the scene I new he was something special. Having stormed the TV shows such as The Royal Variety Performance, Live At The Apollo, Hava I Got News For You and Mock of The Week, McIntyre has become one of the UK's greates comedians amongst the likes of Ricky Gervais, Lee Evans, Jimmy Carr and Peter Key. McIntyre is a truly unique and sensational comedian that takes comedy to a new level. The way he performs on stage ...
...shows are something to behold. "Live and Laughing" is sensational and he makes you fall off your seat with his wit and unique material. The DVD includes the performance from BBC 1's "Live At The Apollo", a performance which took McIntyre to another level and made him the star that he is now. The material takes the audience's laughter to another level, and the way in which he speaks, acts, and runs around stage will make anyone cry with laughter. ...
