This movie sucked. A few scattered laughs, but the plot was disgustingly cliched. I loved Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and even liked Big Daddy, but for the most part Sandler movies seem to be getting worse and worse. You know its gonna make $100 million plus cause he's in it, so why bother with a good script or any semblance of a story right? Blech!

I was looking forwarrd to this one. I think Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore are two of the funniest movies I've ever seen. (Though the movies after those have gotten worse) and was hoping for Deeds to be back in the spirit of the first two.
Yes, all his characters are the same but Sandler admits that he plays the same character over and over. He doesn't have any delusions about his range.
Sandler's next movie is Punchdrunk Love directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.

I didn't say the movies were the same. I said that his characters were the same dolt.

i agree, why bother. the masses in this country are morons. if you want to sell a movie you have to make for the lowest common denominator. This means that every movie is made with people like Ikea in mind. This is why people like sandle continue to do the same thing over and over. people like the familiar and are easily amused. they will laugh at the same joke over and over because they are simple. Shame on you for going to see this movie. you should have seen this idiocy walking down 5th avenue.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

Wow Arpi, didn't expect that sort of response from you.
Geez, I'm SOOO sorry that occasionally I'll like the stupid mindless comedy. At least I admit I laugh from them. I'm not saying their great, I'm not saying their superb but if I want to have a chuckle, i'll watch a Sandler movie at times. It doesn't mean I can't appreciate great cinema but that doesn't mean I can't like the Sandler movies for what they are. And keep in mind I really only liked Madison and Gilmore and Little Nicky (I thought it had a couple funny parts and it was acceptably different)- I hated Big Daddy and Wedding Singer and Waterboy his most popular.

I saw Deeds tonight and I was disappointed. I can sum up the movie's biggest problem by going to the Gospel of Homer and reciting three words "Be More Funny."
Seriously, where was the comedy in this film? I don't see Adam Sandler movies for the best acting, the most creative direction, the most heartwrenching dialogue or ground breaking effects. I see them to laugh at the most inane things but LAUGH!!! In this latest Sandler installment, for some reason they decided to cut that out. Yes they had funny moments and the usual eccentric characters (John Tuturro being the best in that) but there were multiple scenes without any laughs or ATTEMPTS at laughs. That was the worst thing in it, they seemed to forget to attempt. It doesn't need to make sense or need to work but just throw so many jokes at us that we laugh through the ones that don't work. We don't need to see a cutesy montage but throw a midget riding a unicycle, SOMETHING that could appeal to the humor side of us.
"The Hudsucker Proxy" did the same thing in 94 but better in every single way.

The only Adam Sandler movie I liked was Billy Madison. The others were horrible overall, so I won't be seeing this movie.
