I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry Review Summary

Fans of Adam Sandler's unique comedy are loving I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, also starring Kevin James (of King of Queens and Hitch) and Jessica Biel (of Next and The Illusionist). Some say it's "The Funniest movie I have seen in years!" The simplified plot is this: Two straight, single Brooklyn firefighters (Sandler, James) pretend to be a gay couple in order to receive domestic partner benefits. It's not just about the laughs, however, as reviewers say "It has a point to it and it shows you what the gay people go through on a daily basis." Although the film is overall recommended, some reviewers say "It was very slow going all the way thru" and "filled with the same outlandish gay humor and clichés most of us already know". However if you enjoy Adam Sandler's other movies such as Little Nicky, The Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates and Click, you will probably enjoy this.

A friend had recommended this movie for my husband and I to rent. I really like Kevin James and Adam Sandler is okay sometimes. — My husband loved this movie and would like for me to buy it for him. — I found the humor sometimes a bit crass.

Adam Sandler and Kevin James deliver every bit as much side-splitting humor as you would expect from two popular and experienced comedians, and they play off of one another's characters well. Kevin James plays Larry, a great buddy to his fellow firemen, an awkward but caring father, and a long-grieving widower who's lost the courage and the heart to pursue new women. Adam Sandler plays Chuck, a womanizing playboy who's only interest is having a good time, with his buddies and with the ladies. When Larry realizes the only way to ensure his children's security is… read full review »

USE THE PAUSE BUTTON YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MAKE A RUN

Huge Adam Sandler fan, DVD collector, comedy fan

NOV

2007

Most comedys disappoint me. But as usual Adam and friends is one of the few who rarely disappoint. Laughs from start to finish including the outtakes. — I just love it that Adam uses his friends in almost all his movies and each and every time they all bring the very best to the new charature they play. This has also made me look for other movies with these actors in them. — This movie is one that is a must buy because it makes you laugh so hard you may have to make a run for the bathroom so you need that pause button. After buying the DVD I pushed pause at least 6… read full review »

It is one of the funniest movies of the year if you ask me. Its funny even to gay people. It has a point to it and it shows you what the gay people go through on a daily basis. It's not too nice. But they find a way to get back at them in a great and funny way. And it proves that a lot more people are gay than you think. I mean, basically, don't judge people based on their looks and watch what you say because you never know! Your best friend could be gay. I have gay friends and they even think its a very funny movie. Its not offensive at all. The whole movie you're on their side. And… read full review »

2007

Chuck and Larry are best friends... A year after the death of one wife, the guy needs to remarry for insurance money purposes... And friendship turns into a marriage... — This movie had me and everyone around me laughing out-loud. It was a comedy and true friendship story that was put together perfectly. My favorite part was the actual marriage of Chuck and Larry. The "preacher" kept talking about "a Circle" ... precious... my boyfriend and I quote him to this day... "it's like a circle..." — Truly a quirky movie, but I caution it being a 'family' movie... funny… read full review »

Another Great Adam Sandler Movie

NOV

2007

Being the big Adam Sandler fan that I am this was GREAT. I had pains from laughing so hard. It is another great performance from Adam Sandler. Kevin James was great too. The plot is about two best friends who are fireman and marry each other for the life benefits. It truely does have a mean to the movie and makes you think about how you treat others based on their sexual preference. You will also notice many of the same actors from other Sandler movies like Big Daddy, 50 First Dates, Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison. It is a must see for all Adam Sandler fans or someone looking for non stop… read full review »

I've always been a huge Adam Sandler fan and I have to say this was one of my top favorites with him. Ving Raimes was PERFECT for his role, The shower scene was a complete hoot and I haven't laughed like that in a long time! — Some scenes may not be appropriate for younger children, my 13 yr old turned away if it embarassed her but overall no issues. I love the way Adam Sandler uses all of his friends (example Rob Schneider) and former SNL cast members in all of his movies they all play off of each other very well. — … read full review »

This movie is THE funniest movie I have seen in a very long time. I am not a big fan of comedies but I was dragged into seeing Chuck and Larry by a couple of friends who live for comedies. By the time the movie was over, I thought that I was going to hyperventilate from laughing so hard. I have always thought that people that laugh out loud in movie theaters were crazy but I could not control myself - it was hilarious. This is one of the best Adam Sandler movies I believe I have ever seen. … read full review »

This movie was hilarious! At first I was shocked, and honestly offended by the initial use of the F word, but halfway thru the movie Adam Sandlers character is coming around to see what a horrible word it is and how much it hurts the gay community. My boyfriend and I totally planned to sit in the back of the theater and make out, but we were so into this movie and laughing too hard we… read full review »

I have never laughed so hard during a movie as I did this one. Adam Sandler and Kevin James could not have been a better choice. I loved this movie. The only thing is, you either have to go to the movies without the kids, or wait until they are in bed. But for adults, there is not a better… read full review »
