Rating: Summary: Back to School Billy... Review: In 1995, Adam Sandler played one of his best roles ever as a movie star. This movie, Billy Madison is funny, stupid and a good movie for the whole family to watch.The movie starts out with Billy Madison (Sandler), the idiot son of a hotel tycoon (Darren McGavin). Billy is a lazy, stupid, fall-down drunk that chases invisible penguins. One night, Billy's father plans to retire and wants to give the company to Billy but one of his father's executives, Eric (Bradley Whitford) convinces him that Billy is too stupid to run a company. So Billy tries to prove to his father he can run the company by: First grade - Twelth grade all over again, complete each grade in two weeks. So Billy goes back to first grade and starts to have a lot of fun being a kid again. Then he goes on to third grade where his teacher is his dream girl Veronica Vaughn. Now Billy gets farther and farther to completing school and Eric black-mails the school principal, Max, into publicly announcing that Billy only passed because he paid Max $5,000 to pass. So it came down to Billy and Eric in an Academic competition. See who gets the company. Will Billy go from being a drunk to a hotel president or will Eric run the company? See what happens.

But then, Billy learns that his father thinks he is stupid, and couldn't handel the family business. So, what Billy does is go back to school! From grades 1-12, you will be laughing so hard your stomache will hurt! I recommend this movie to everyone, cuz this movie will make anyone laugh!
Rating: Summary: One of Adam Sandler's Best Movies! Review: Billy Madison is one of those dumb humor type movies and it is hilarious and one of Adam Sandler's best movies but I would only recommend this movie to people who like silly comedy movies and don't get easily offended by silly humor, bathroom humor etc. Btw: Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore were not SNL characters and neither was the Austin Powers character that was created and played by Mike Myers, just because they were played by former Saturday Night Live cast members doesn't make them SNL characters! Not ony was Adam Sandler great in Billy Madison but so was the West Wing's Bradley Whitford as Eric, Bridgette Wilson as Veronica and Darren McGavin as Billy's father. I also liked Norm MacDonald as Billy's friend and Chris Farley as the bus driver.
Rating: Summary: Sandler At His Best Review: Adam Sandler is in the top five of all my favorite comedy actors and this is one of his best movies. Spoiled rich kid with no responsability who never graduated from high school. Sandler is at his best when acting a fool and he does plenty of that durring this movie. Bridgette Wilson plays one of his teachers ,as he goes back through school, and his love interest. I don't need to tell anyone who has seen Bridgette in a movie but she is beautiful, and not a bad actress. If you love silly then buy this movie.
Rating: Summary: Best movie Review: Adam Sandler plays a 28 year old fool who wants to take over the family buisness. He makes a bet with his dad that he will repeat grades 1-12 in 12 weeks. With the help of his friends and taecher he does. If you like Adam Sandlers stupid roles like i do you will love this movie. It will keep you laughing with many memorable lines.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: Billy Madison was the dumbest role that Adam Sandler did and I LOVE IT!...Nothing was funnier than Billy Madison. If you thought Jim Carrey was dumb in "Dumb and Dumber", you obviously haven't seen Billy Madison. It's non stop laughter here. Sandler plays a spoiled 28 year old, drunken, moron who is heir to his father's Hotel dynasty. In hopes that his only son would take over the family business, his father is shocked to realize that his own son is so stupid that he had to pay his way through school. After all, who spells Rock "R-O-K"? Determined that he should take over the family business, Sandler makes a bet with his father that if he goes back to school and scores good grades in each grade in a week (1 grade, 1 week), that he should get to take over the family business. Along with his best friend Norm McDonald and the help of fellow SNL Alumni Chris Farley and of course the help of his classmates and sexy teacher Bridgette Wilson, Sandler makes Billy Madison the most fun and funniest movie that he has on his bill so far. I assure you, you will laugh until it hurts with this one. Get Billy Madison and have yourself a total laugh!

Rating: Summary: Not just an idiot movie Review: Adam Sandler's Billy Madison never graduated from anything. His rich father is about to give up entirely and turn the family business over to the wicked Eric Gordon (Brad Whitford from "West Wing") when Billy steps up and offers a challenge: he'll finish grade school - pre-K through high school and defeat the evil Eric. Billy, whose days are spent idling with his loser friends over beer, is a longshot, but he pulls it together, falls in love, saves the family business and becomes a better person. This could have been the stupidest film if done by anybody else, but nobody seems to have mastered the art of mixing sentimentality with gross-out humor and mind numbingly funny laughs like Sandler. It's not "Waterboy", but Sandler gets some help from his co-stars, including Whitford as the evil Eric and Bridgette Wilson as Sandler's teacher and girlfriend, with some help by Josh Mostel as a principal with a dark secret, Chris Farley as a messed-up bus driver, but especially Steve Buscemi as a guy tormented by Billy when the two were children. A bunch of running gags thruoughout the flick are easy to miss the first time around, but jump out at you if you keep watching it (the O'douls, a family of bullies who make school life a hell for Billy, is something I missed at first).
Rating: Summary: O'Doyle Rules!! Review: This is the 2nd best movie that I have ever seen in my entire life(Happy Gilmore is the first).But this movie is not far from number one.Here is what the movie is about: Billy Madison is someone who must go back to school or else a total mean person named Eric gets the company. One of the funniest characters in the movie are the O'Doyle family.They beat everyone up and say "O'Doyle Rules".If you are looking for a seriously funny movie,then get this movie.Trust me,you will have absolutely no regrets. Peace Out.
