Mike says there are "no stakes." But with Dunkin Donuts' new Steak and Egg sandwich, you might not be so quick to judge. Served on a toasty onion bagel, this hearty meal starts your day off right... at any time!
Me Auntie Nora It does!? That sounds delicious! But quality ingredients like that served by the fine folks at my local Dunkin Donuts' branch will surely come with a huge pricetag..
I know there’s no reason they would know or care about this but Eugenio Derbez who plays the gardener is actually a really renowned “comedian” here in México who built his career on low-brow comedy. I wouldn’t be surprised if he wrote most of his own “jokes” for this “movie”, and also the grandma character with the big eyes is a character he does a lot. So there’s actually TWO comedy hacks doing drag in this movie! In retrospective, the cash and hollywood connections Derbez got from doing this movie are probably what catapulted his higher budget projects, including a couple movies and most recently a prime exclusive reality show about him and his annoying family vacationing in luxurious places around the world. So really, this was the beginning of a cultural migraine for Mexicans across the board. Thanks Sandler!
Hold on, hasn't his stock risen in recent years? He got a starring role in the live-action Dora The Explorer movie. On the other hand, "La Ley de Herodes", which I believe is one of his most noted movies, was quite a discovery.
I only know Derbez for his roles as a celebrity dub voice actor in movies like Mulan, Shrek, The Secret Life of Pets, Angry Birds, etc. He seems to do a better job as a voice actor though, I was kind of surprised to see him in CODA, he even dubbed himself for the Neutral Spanish version in that movie
Interestingly, at first I though that it doesn't suit this movie, since his character is adequate and earns good money, while Katie Holmes is not particularly beautiful, so they're on the level. But then I realized that his character is also Jill, who's stupid and obnoxious, but gets Al Pacino to fall for her for no reason. So it does happen, just with inverted genders.
I know a couple of people who've worked with Sandler and he's apparently an unbelievably nice guy, always asking after people's families and they've said he remembered them by name years after they last met. His movies suck, but I really wish they didn't.
Except Griffith had actual talent as a film maker. Btw, not to defend the movie, because I can't stand the guy, but Juan is a pretty common name, in fact, my uncle, his wife and their son are called Juan... piñatas at parties are a thing sometimes even if children are absent, soccer is like a religion, and LOTS of people cross over the wrong way. So yeah, stereotypes are actually quite accurate.
Somehow I became unsubbed from you and forgot you even existed. I just thought you died or something, so imagine my shock when I click on your channel and I realize you're still regularly making videos.
Jay forgot the "always cast an insanely beautiful actress as his wife or partner" trope. It's so overused that it's starting to make the audience think Adam is insecure as fuck.
there isn't much in those roles. anybody could play those parts, so casting departments fill the roles with pretty ladies (because audiences like seeing pretty people & they gotta counterbalance Sandler's ugly mug)
Producer: "So Adam, do you have that funny scene idea we asked for?" Adam Sandler: "How about Jill eats Mexican food for the first time and it makes her poop." Producer: "Perfect."
RLM is probably just one of the best RU-vid channels period. They're real good at what they do, and people who aren't even into movies can enjoy their videos a lot.
Yes...he's even been declared a possible next leader of Scientology... however, since katie holmes left him and took their kids he's toned down his time with the church and is trying to make it work with her..
His list forgot "Old lady doing something absurd". Every movie has an old lady rapping, eating hot peppers, flirting, making vulgar jokes, etc. Oh, he also forgot "Entire movie is an excuse for Sandler and friends to go on vacation." (cruise, Hawaii, camping, resorts, etc)
Sandler has always been good in very specific roles, and when he tries to act. His own movies became a lost cause years ago because they just generate tons of money for no good reason. Although when I go back to look at his acting roles I can't find a single one to support my claim, but I swear it's true.
@@JJ-sq1fv Why put effort in when super simple plots and jokes make him millions of dollars and give him an excuse to vacation with his family? I’d do the same thing if I was him.
The Great Gawain Fallen Kingdom was a Minecraft parody that came out in 2012. It currently has 100 million+ views. This review was released in 2015. Pretty sure you're wrong.
As someone who's felt personally violated every time he's had to watch an Adam Sandler movie, it does my heart good to hear someone not only pan one of them, but suggest that it may even be a minor criminal enterprise.
I'm always interested in Mike's intentionally cliche movie ideas, so I've transcribed his list of predicted Jack and Jill story beats at 10:26. Hopefully it formats correctly - the checkmarks are beside points 1, 4, 6, 12, 14 and 17: ✔️1. Jill will have a bathroom "incident" involving diarrhea or farts ❌2. Jill will show up at Jack's work and embarrass him ❌3. Jill will ruin a "big client" meeting ✔️4. The switch up ❌5. Jill well help kids with their problems ✔️6. Adam Sandler will want to get "the big account" ❌7. Katie Holmes will want to have kids of her own ❌8. Pacino will kiss Jill in a gay gross out scene ❌9. Jill will end up on the court of the Lakers game ❌10. Jill's reason for staying is financial. Jack helps her out in the end (foreclosure) ❌11. Jill will end up on stage during a big event ✔️12. Big bra/big panties joke ❌13. Jill will walk into rooms at appropriate times ✔️14. Jack and Jill will be seen as kids in flashbacks ❌15. Jill will appear in a bathing suit (for visual yucks) ❌16. A scene with multiple women (i.e. Katie Holm's [sic] book club), uppity white women ✔️17. Jack will blow up on Jill as a big plot point/turning point
It may just be because I have a demented sense of humor, but if they really had done the scene where the handler walked out with a pistol and shot the pony, that would have been hysterical.
instead of having the actual shooting on screen they could have a shot of jack and jill looking guilty while tying to figure out how to get out of there, while watching the pony operator in tears gabbing a shotgun and walking off camera, cutting to a fade out followed by a gunshot...and screams from the kids in the crowd. Remember less is better even for dark humor like that.
TBH that pony would most likely die within a few minutes even without shooting it. Horses can't bend their legs this way meaning that Jill crushed its legs. And if she crushed its legs and it slammed into the ground with its belly Jill would most likely even crush pony's ribs and guts. All around the pony should be in puree form.
So I watched this after the Ghostbuster review in which, Al Pacino IS IN A DUNKIN DONUTS COMMERCIAL! Jack and Jill exist in the same cinematic universe as Ghostbusters (2016)
I love that Mike's half assed potential ending makes immensely more sense and would have actually been a logical conclusion. Even without putting any effort in, he still gave Holmes' character more thought than they did.
so there are 3 main (best) series rlm has that are non skits - botw, half in the bag, and mr plinkett. and i order them on a scale on one end its super conversational and pretty unscripted, then the other end is tightly written with more effective analysis. botw is on the conversational end and mr plinkett is on the tightly written end, with half in the bag being in the middle but leaning towards botw. but this video is like really close to the mr plinkett end because the analysis is so constructive and effectively written. thats just my theory on why this videos so great.
Mike: "There is literally one crafted joke in this movie that has a set-up and a pay-off. Shall we tell them what it is?" Jay: "Ugh.. _Sure_..? Are you concerned about spoilers? Because I would think for anyone that _is_ interested in seeing this movie I *hope* we spoil it for you." 26:15
They straight-up presented a viewing of this movie as a reward for winning a challenge on the reality show Survivor years ago, and the eventual winner of the season was the only one watching who wasn't laughing and had an expression like "what the fuck is this?" With competition who unanimously liked this film it's no wonder she took the game.
I'd argue that the actual moment Mike truly broke, was when he lost that first Junka game. He invested so much of his psycho-social-spiritual energy into winning. After that, he was more willing to relegate himself to behind-the-scenes.
I actually put 90 minutes of my life on the line and watched this movie just to see what you guys are talking about. This is my level of dedication to learning movies like you guys do. 🎥❤️🎥
I re-watch these videos just for the petty joy, the petty, petty joy of rational sane people point out the excesses and greed of famous, rich, questionably talented people. Next, I'll watch a video about the fall of Lehman Brothers.
The narrator in the trailer sounds exactly like Trey Parker doing the "wacky movie trailer narrator voice" for "The Stapler," "A Carrot" and "Da Derp Dee Derp Da Teetley Derpee Derpee Dumb."
This is maybe the only RLM review I wish they'd go back and re-edit with footage of the actual movie now that they clearly have it, even if they won't admit it.
I like to come bac kto this review every few months, particularly after a poor movie comes out and makes a bunch of money *cough* Batman V Superman *cough* to remind myself that there are some sane people in the world who are capable of seeing through awfulness and acknowledging that film can be art, and that these hollywood film makers are just shitting all over that idea
Thank you RedLetterMedia, thank you for being the smartest RU-vid personalities there are. Not many RU-vid Reviewers understand the concepts of Vertical Integration and Ponzi Schemes, let alone how to apply it to the film industry
I have a confession to make...when this movie came out a lot of my friends wanted to see it so i ended up watching it 4 times safe to say i have no friends any more.
it's because of pride. It's the same reason a man names his son Jr, (which I always thought was kinda fuckin stupid) It can be attributed to ignorance, which I dont mean to imply anything by pointing out. It's just based in that very instinctual, basic urge for a man to ensure his legacy.
I'm really glad you guys got this up on RU-vid in its entirety, because for some reason the site's videos crash on my computer and I like to force as many people to watch this as possible to make them feel guilty for enjoying Adam Sandler movies.
