Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
adonis98-743-186503 Dave Buznik is a businessman who is wrongly sentenced to an anger- management program, where he meets an aggressive instructor. Anger Management boasts lots of laughs and although it gets a bit silly at times it does it's job pretty well and the chemistry between Sandler and Nicholson is great plus the rest of the supporting cast does a pretty great job as well. The story is simple and the jokes do land for the most part and like i said Jack Nicholson is Fantastic as always, this is also one of Adam Sandler's better films and much better performances and i think that even people who might not like him as an actor will find themselves surprised by how good the overall concept and comedy is and how good of a chemistry there is between the 2 leading men.
EBJ Directed by: Peter SegalStarring: Adam Sandler, Jack Nicholson and Marisa TomeiOverall: I love Jack Nicholson and his movies are genius. I quite like Adam Sandler and Happy Gilmore is one of my favourite comedies. Putting these two together should work! It doesn't! It is awful and one of the worst comedies I've seen in a long while.Good:1. Jack Nicholson is an excellent actor and could help make any movie watchable. He is this films only saving grace.Bad:1. Such a stupid and boring plot. Even the twist(which I won't spoil in case you want to watch the movie) is stupid and doesn't work.2. It was very bland and very unfunny. I didn't laugh once but Jack Nicholson did get me smiling once or twice.3. Aide from Nicholson, the other acting was atrocious.4. Lazy and uneven cinematography.2/10
Floated2 Anger Management starring Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson. Sandler plays Dave Buznik, a 35-year-old, browbeaten executive assistant. Dave takes it all with a smile and gets on with his next humiliation with the good grace born of self-esteem so low that it doesn't even register as a blip on the radar. Until, a fateful plane trip where his self-effacing nature doesn't defuse the situation as exacerbate it. Before he knows it, he's been tasered, arrested, and sentenced to anger management classes with unconventional therapist Buddy Rydell, who just happens to be the eccentric guy who was sitting next to him on the plane. Anger Management tends to be rarely mentioned among Sandler's list of older films and in this film is a great representation of how he was during his best years. He does tend to play very similar characters but he plays (or has) played them well, and his comedic timing and deliver is on par with his better work efforts. The film succeeds because the plot is relatively decent and it works. It also does not try to hard for laughs and silly gags (like Mr. Deeds). A big part of this may be due to the script, it wasn't written by Sandler, though there are one or two fart jokes that have his fingerprints all over them. Overall the film works and it is well enjoyable and entertaining throughout.
gavin6942 Dave Buznik (Adam Sandler) is a businessman who is wrongly sentenced to an anger-management program, where he meets an aggressive instructor (Jack Nicholson).Sandler has a special kind of humor, and it is one that has matured over the years. His classics will always be "Happy Gilmore" and "Billy Madison", but his follow-ups are pretty decent, too. This one has all the things we enjoy -- the juvenile humor, the excellent ensemble cast -- and adds in Jack Nicholson, so rarely ever makes a bad film.One thing about Sandler's films is that he tends to keep the same ensemble but rotates the leading lady (other than Drew Barrymore). This time we have Marisa Tomei, which is a stroke of genius. Obviously she knows comedy (My Cousin Vinny), but has branched out to some serious drama. In this film, she straddles both and rally grounds the humor. Her character is indispensable.
