Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

brewz Rob Schneider doesn't receive a lot of love from critics nor fans of comedy in general and I suppose some of that criticism is warranted... Either way I'm not here to judge. His abilities as a comedic actor or his career choices are not my focus here. I'm writing to make you aware of a movie that is probably the single most underrated comedy of the past 20 years. Over the years I've recommended this film to friends (none of whom were even aware of its existence) and every single one of them I've followed up with has been amazed at how a comedy with virtually no cultural footprint could be so entertaining to watch. It even holds up to repeated views!Do yourself a favor.. if you are a fan of raunchy comedy, watch Big Stan. You'll thank me later.

liakou It was the worst film of Schneider... yet. The direction (his work), the script, the acting, the whole film. It didn't even have a certain plot. I think they decided to go along and just fill the "reel". It wasn't even remotely funny. Rob, a word of advice, please stick to being a sidekick to Sandler or hire a director for your next effort. I am really angry because not only did I lose my time watching this film but I've also been disappointed by Schneider since I kinda liked his previous films and performances.

midtra52 I know it may sound crazy, but I thought this was one of the best comedies I've seen. I don't see how there's not more of an interest in this movie to be honest.Well the movie definitely plays of Rob Schneider's fear of anal rape, which makes for a hilarious setup. The interactions between Schneider and "the master" are hilarious. David Carradine can really do about anything. He was incredible in Kill Bill and he plays this part perfectly as well.All I can say is if you watch this movie and don't laugh you might need to get your sense of humor checked out. That or you're too young and you shouldn't be watching it anyway!

Robert Fendt I hat the 'privilege' of watching this movie as a surprise feature in a local theater, and it was close, so very close to becoming the second movie I ever walked out from. In one word: awful. More appropriate and in five words: "oh please, make it stop". I have no idea what kind of crazy befell movie executives when they decided to bring an old direct-to-video title from the US to German theaters.The 'humor' in the flick (for want of a better word) is almost completely based on icky scenes, violence and crude sexual innuendo. Especially because of the latter this movie is not really appropriate for youngsters, which is really rather ironic since immature boys are probably the only audience that would find this insulting excuse of a motion picture even remotely funny. The rest of the world (i.e., grown-ups) will find that crude references to anal rape do not suddenly become funny if you repeat them about three dozen times. The same goes for body liquids and icky-food jokes.Apart from that, the whole premise of the film does not work, either. The idea of having a weakling become a prison's chief bully might have looked amusing on paper. It is not, at least with Schneider as the main character. The script is bad, the acting is lousy, and the directing (fittingly also by Schneider) is atrocious. Verdict: avoid at all costs.
