Mr. Deeds

I just saw a sneek preview of it last night, and as my friend Liz describes it: “It’s the best Adam Sandler movie. That’s not saying much.”

I’d describe it as: “Winona Rider has cleavage?”

Actually, it was pretty good. Adam Sandler takes a much different approach to his character: A nice, small town guy who’s genuinely caring and considerate, stuck in New York with a bunch of assholes. Aside from his tendancy to beat people maliciously, he’s a really good guy. And suprisingly, there isn’t a single trademark Adam Sandler baby talk tantrum in the whole thing. I was shocked.

Winona Rider and the rest of the cast were pretty much lame. Nothing special there, except for John Tuturro, who always does a great job whatever he’s in. His character was really likeable. It was a fun movie, definitely worth seeing for free, but if you’re looking for a good way to waste a lazy summer day, definitely check it out for a matine. But hey, what movie with a David Bowie sing along isn’t?

The movie is a desecration. See the original and start beating Adam Sandler with sharp rocks.

Oh, no wait, I meant Labyrinth. I always get those two confused. And it ruined my joke. I suck!

Labyrinth!! Ha-Ha! Whan an EXCELLENT joke! That was truly a great one, HA!

I saw Mr Deeds Goes To Town last night. It was awesome. There is no way Sandler can ever measure up to that. They should have renamed Sandler’s “Movie with Mr Deeds’s Plot, but not as Good” The last thing i want to see is Gary Cooper say “The Price is wrong, bitch!”
