I went to see "i now pronounce you Chuck and Laryy" last night and i thought it was the funniest movie i have seen in a long time.

I was going to go see the Simpson's movie but we missed it. Has anyone seen it and if so is it worth going to see in the theater.

My brother-in-law saw it and also raved about how great it was. Now I can't trust either one of you.

I also went to see it. It was pretty good, I liked all of it except Rob Schneider's portrail of the chinese guy. Honestly they should have gotten an asian actor do it because it kinda comes off as racist having a white guy doing it.

From the previews, there only appears to be two reasons to watch this movie, and they're both compliments of Jessica Biel.

are you counting her boobies individually or as a single reason to watch? If you're counting each boobie on it's own, I can think of another reason she gives to watch. It's on the other side of her body and about a foot and a half lower.

Whatever gay stereotypes exist in this movie -- and they probably number in the hundreds -- the writers of the comedy are much tougher on morbidly obese people, hot women, the homeless, mailmen, unattractive women and particularly Asians

Yipes, even The Ringer didn't get as much bad stereotype flack.

I wanna see this movie. It looks funny as hell but you never know until you actually see it. As far as reviews go I don't even take them into consideration I just see the movie and judge for myself what I think of it.

It was fine. Obviously it's a stereotype that they are making fun of in a lot of cases, so the movie has to include stuff like that. The only part I didn't like was (spoliers, white): when the big black guy came out of the closet he really went from an angry axe murderer to a fruit loop which is likely not the most accurate thing. I can understand that people might feel free to be themselves after coming out, but no one changes that much do they?

After going back to back with two of the greatest movies of all time (Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore) Adam Sandler has made nothing but pure crap…well Punch Drunk Love was alright

Most comedy out there is based on one stereotype or another, so im not really buying the idea that this movie sucks because of that. Stereotypes can be done right...Harold and Kumar is a great example.

Haven't seen it though, so this movie could full on suck. The gay thing has been a little played oun in terms of comedy.....there's absolutely no shock value in it anymore, so it better have something else.
