its a really sad apatow movie but


am i the only one who loved it? I thought it was his most mature work, plus sandler really did an amazing job in this film (i think its his last good performance before he went total dumbass in the rest of the movies he did after this). i loved it the first time i watched it but its not a movie i can watch numerous times, like one other poster said, its very dreadful.

I thought it was great! It feels like an organic comedy to me. The story is really good, and it is still very funny!

totally agree!

Liked it very much. I think Sandler had much more acting chops than he is given credit for. Wish he would take on a couple more scripts/projects with some meat to them.

Mature work? You sure about that? Stand up comedians talking about penises the majority of the time. Having said that, I liked it also but I can't put my finger on as to why.

i agree with you OP. it's got a bit more heart to it than some of his other films. it's nice to see sandler do some actual acting as well
