Stupid and savvy
Critics have called I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry “puerile”, “terminally confused”, “casually sexist, blithely racist and about as visually sophisticated as a parking-garage surveillance video”, “stupid and offensive/stupid and condescending”, “a four-alarm flaming piece of crap”, “as predictable as flies on cow patties”, and “an abysmal stab at comedy on every conceivable level”.
I really enjoyed it! Here’s the one positive review. Interesting how critics feel the need to unleash the full force of their superior taste on what is clearly a crass dumbass Adam Sandler vehicle. It’s like writing a doctoral dissertation on Happy Gilmore. Which I really enjoyed, too! And Billy Madison! And the one where Kathy Bates is his mom!
Incidentally, Steve Buscemi really was a fireman in Brooklyn, and screenplay credit goes to Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor. As in Election, About Schmidt, and Sideways.
