Summary: Anger Management is Hilarious
Review: I thought Anger Management was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. I had to post this review because I could not believe the average rating it got was 3 stars. The people who gave this movie a bad review must have a very different sense of humor than I. At least give this movie a chance, if you're an intelligent person you'll love it.

Summary: Absolutely the WORST move. Ever.
Review: I used to mention "The Devil and Mac Devlin" as an example of the worst movie ever, a complete waste of time, good actors in a bad movie with poor direction and bad dialogue and lame sets and tired everything. But this one tops it (or bottoms it). Ladies and gentlemen, the NEW lamest excuse for a movie ever: Anger Management.If you saw the ads, you've seen the movie - I hesitate to say "the best parts", since even those were weak, but the key plot points, anyway. Adam Sandler plays a gentle guy who doesnt get angry until driven there by angry people, forced into anger management with a borderline pycho, and then periodically made angry. But it's the same scene (and idea) over and over and over and over and over again. It's like a really bad Saturday Night Live skit that never should have happened, and didn't know when to stop. I'm guessing it actually began as an idea of SNL and it should have stayed there - as a discard idea. Yuck, yuck, yuck.

Summary: incredibly not funny
Review: A film by Peter Segal For a movie with so much potential it sure was a let down. This could have been a real show-off piece for Adam Sandler, working with Jack Nicholson. The idea was good, Sandler being required to take an anger management class from Nicholson. The execution was poor. The bottom line is that the movie just wasn't funny. Dave (Adam Sandler) is a very non-confrontational man. He has to fly out on a business trip. When he calmly and quietly asks the flight attendant for headphones, the flight attendant freaks out, tells him to calm down and with every word that Dave says, she gets more and more alarmed until an air marshal steps in. We next see Dave in court where he is convicted for assaulting the flight attendant and he is assigned an anger management course. The doctor leading the course is Dr Buddy Rydell (Jack Nicholson). Rydell appears to be slightly unhinged and as Dave works with the doctor, Rydell ends up getting Dave in more and more trouble until successfully completing the anger management training is the only hope to keep Dave out of prison. The whole problem stems from the fact that right from the start, the movie is not funny. Considering the premise of Dave being put into anger management, I guess the point was that Dave exhibited no signs of anger. The only problem is that during the scene on the airplane it was so obvious that Dave had done nothing wrong that it just sucked all the humor out of the scene. The flight attendant wasn't over-reacting, she was reacting to nothing at all. I thought the movie started out not being funny, and continued not being funny throughout the whole movie. There were a couple of light chuckles, but that's about it. I can't recommend this movie, and would suggest that people avoid this one.

Summary: Don't Listen to the People Who Don't Know a Funny Movie
Review: I don't know why so many people write bad reviews of this movie. The only reason I can think of is that they are boring people with no sense of humor, because I loved it. I laughed the entire movie. I give it 5 stars.

Summary: Fabulous Film, I loved it!
Review: I saw this film with a few close friends of mine back in June and we all laughed the entire way through. Sandler and Nicholson are a hit together, and I personally think they should team up again. Go out and get the movie to watch immediately!

Summary: A great comedy
Review: This was a great movie. It's Nicholson at his best, second only to "as good as it gets". Lots of comedy and great fun. This is a good date movie or just good to watch for no reason at all. It will lift you're spirits and keep you coming back for more.

Summary: No Laughs
Review: There wasn't a single laugh in this wretched excuse of a comedy. Crude, yes. Dumb, certainly. But no laughs. Even though the movie is only 106 minutes long, it seemed endless. Adam Sandler used to be funny but this is three turkeys in a row for him (four if you count the painful Eight Crazy Nights cartoon). Jack Nicholson tried his best but with material like this, he didn't have a chance.

Summary: Success of the Wrong Kind
Review: How do you manage to cast Jack Nicholson, Adam Sandler, Luiz Guzman, John Turturro, Marisa Tomei, Krista Allen and cameos from Heather Graham, Woody Harrelson, and ex NY mayor Rudi Guiliani, and still come up with a film that is mediocre at best?? A very hard thing to do you might think, but director Peter Segal and writer David Dorfman manage just that!! A success of the wrong kind!
So much expectations and most importantly potential, with so little return, proving yet again that in order for a movie, even one starring the great Nicholson,to succeed,it has to have an equally talented writer, director and production team.
Having said that, it is not a bad movie per se,and there are just very few scenes that are funny, but these are very far and few in between and do not make one whole movie.
I think the script is the main culprit! An over the top Nicholson (playing the eccentric but wise mentor who changes the life of his protege, a character often seen in cinema), an annoyingly calm Sandler(even his rare outbursts are somehow not convincing), the character of Turturro who comes out as more aggressive and unstable than angry(I was wondering this man should have been locked up ages ago !!).
The only bright spot in the film was Luiz Guzman who is always excellent and adds a lot to his roles,and of course the pairing of Krista Allen and January Jones as two porn stars/lovers who kiss in the middle of the anger management session (I was thinking this alone is capable of turning the angriest of men to sweet little puppies!), but even this scene was unnecessary and you really feel it does not belong to the movie!
So Anger Management is a lifeless, humourless and colourless film that missed a big opportunity to take advantage of this wealth of talent attached to it.
