Mr. Deeds (Special Widescreen Edition)

Rating:
Summary: Silly
Review: Adam Sandler is charming at times, like he usually is, but the original is much better.
At least it isn't as offensive as Little Nicky!

Review: This movie is about Longfellow Deeds who inherits a lot of money from a dead relative he never met. I can't believe it got bad reviews, because my sister and I loved it. It was hilarious but also touching. It is definately worth seeing!

Summary: Predictable and Boring.
Review: Billy Madison was great. Happy Gilmore was hillarious. This movie was simply made to make money for producers and such. It has a factory made movie feel to it. Lets have Adam tackle a guy and beat him up again, thats funny right?...

Summary: Great Movie
Review: Ok, this movie was definitely not adam sandlers best, c'mon, do you really think hes gonna make a movie funnier than billy madison or happy gilmore or the waterboy, probably not, but this movie was great, adam sandler was in a more serious role & he still made it funny, some of the people reviewing these that are giving it 1 star are saying that it wasnt worth it because it was no billy madison or happy gilmore, what you dont get is it wasnt supposed to be one of his general movies, those people are probably the same people who said insomnia & 1 hour photo would be bad because all of robin williams other movies were funny, give it a chance, adam sandler is funny naturally, this movie is great and i would recommend it to anyone who loves adam sandler (which is pretty much everybody) so dont listen to the people who gave it a bad review, they dont know what there talking about!

Summary: Take incongruities with grain of salt, and it's entertaining
Review: ...As the title character, Sandler is a hero we pull for, but his old screwball antics do get in the way at times. No real hero would clobber senseless a whole reataurant full of people because they ridiculed him. But here, Sandler as the title character does so in a return to his screwball persona. One might even argue that that persona goes over the top when he goes after a purse-snatcher and doesn't stop with merely subduing him but continues to beat him while he is down, with a seemingly sadistic glee. Perhaps a real hero should show some restraint in such a situation, even considering that the purse-snatching could actually be a setup, as it in fact is in this case. To buy into the heroism of Mr. Deeds, we have to do some considerable winking past these gratuitous farcically sadistic episodes. For those who can do that, the movie can be passably enjoyable. Sandler is entertaining, even when incongrously so. The movie is elevated considerably by the pleasant surprise of Winona Ryder's performance, even though her character starts out as a participant in that purse-snatching setup...MR. DEEDS should be remembered as one of the brighter spots in her uneven career. Here she puts forth a charm we haven't seen in a long time, and her acting fits well into the story. As a co-star to Sandler, she meshed with his character well, certainly the best since Drew Barrymore in THE WEDDING SINGER...She might just be the most uniformly good part of MR. DEEDS, and that gives hope for a more evenly successful career in her future. All in all MR. DEEDS is a watchable bit of entertainment for those not too put off by its incongrous swings between irreverent farce and heartwarming feel-good story and romance.

Summary: An Incredibly funny movie
Review: I saw this movie the day it came out. Wynona Ryder is hot. I couldn't stop laughing. I like the part when Adam Sandler beats up the reporter guy. It's continuously funny. This movie is great. There are many memorable characters. I like the butler. This is the best Adam Sandler Movie.

Summary: One Of The Best Movies I've Ever Seen
Review: This Movie Is One Of The Best Movies Ever Made. The Only Bad Thing About It Was Casting Winona Ryder As Adam Sandler's Girlfriend.

Rating:
Summary: Classic Sandler
Review: I loved this movie. It made me laugh. It was clean enough for my children to see with me. It was sweet but not syrupy. And it was classic Adam Sandler. I've seen the classic Mr. Deeds movie and while it tickled the funny bone, it was not as funny as Sandler's version. This movie rates second only to Wedding Singer in Sandler's long list of hits, in my view. The butler was great. Ryder was OK, occasionally funny in her own right. And there was, of course, the regular cast of crazies that always brighten up the screen in any good Sandler flick. See this movie!
