Jack and Jill
November. 11,2011 PGJack Sadelstein, a successful advertising executive in Los Angeles with a beautiful wife and kids, dreads one event each year: the Thanksgiving visit of his twin sister Jill. Jill's neediness and passive-aggressiveness is maddening to Jack, turning his normally tranquil life upside down.

That was an excellent one.
Thanks for the memories!
Sorry, this movie sucks
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
I first heard about this movie when seeing an episode of "South Park" that referenced it. I seriously thought it was just something they made up! I didn't think that an idea this stupid could actually be real! So, the plot is that Jack's sister Jill is coming over for Thanksgiving. It's sad that there are so few Thanksgiving movies out there and this is one of the most well known. Anyway, Jack needs to get Al Pacino to do a Dunkin Donuts commercial for him.As you might have guessed, Pacino falls in love with Jill. It's mostly because they both grew up in the Bronx. This is a pretty stupid reason to fall in love seeing as how Jill is ugly and annoying. We get even more hideous and embarrassing makeup throughout the film with David Spade as a woman and some old Mexican woman with one tooth who eats peppers. Jack has an adopted Indian son who likes taping things to his chest. This is stupid and pointless, much like the entire film.In fact, the kid characters serve no purpose at all. We have to deal with Sandler's annoying voice as Jill throughout the whole film. Of course there's a lot of farts in this movie! Oh, and Jill pooping Mexican food. I think the only reason this didn't get a PG-13 rating is because there were no swear words in it. This won more Razzies than any film in history and while it's not as awful as "Daddy Day Camp" or "The Master Of Disguise", it's still horrendous. *
Adam Sandler's Jack and Jill is a joke. A gag. Sandler has sunk to his absolute lowest, playing both Jack and Jill poorly. Both main characters are not only unlikable, but also Adam Sandler. It made us want to rip our eyes out just to end the film. The Jared joke aged incredibly poorly, especially with the child audience that this film shoots for. I am embarrassed not only for Adam Sandler, but also every single member on this production. They should all be ashamed of what they created, as well as curious as to why they would even release this. It almost seems like a practical gag and yet no one is laughing or winning in the joke. Al Pacino probably plays his worst role ever, and he plays himself just like every other actor in this movie. INCLUDING David Spade. However, David Spade not only had nice tits but also a killer belly button ring. He was hotter than Rob Schneider in Hot Chick. In conclusion, Happy Madison has disappointed us yet again. I'm questioning why we keep giving Adam so many god damn chances to redeem his name, when it is clearly not ever going to work. Except for maybe in Pixels?
I watched this with my partner because we thought 'it might be so bad that we could get a laugh from it'. There were no laughs, or giggling, not even scoffing. This movie was just plain boring.Imagine this: You're at a social event and you hear two people bickering, it's not endearing, you don't care about them, you just watch them hoping it will stop, since you also don't give a rat's ass about what they're bickering over.That's this movie.Or Imagine this: You're watching paint dry.That's this movie. Just imagine Adam Sandler arguing against Adam Sandler. I can't imagine anything worse. A double dose of Adam Sandler. Actually, Jill was more endearing than the man himself and she's an annoying character on purpose, who we are supposed to dislike. But to be honest, Sandler's character was the lamest out of all. Once again, Sandler tries to big himself up 'the righteous family man,with a hot wife, who is plagued by his annoying sister! He tries to keep calm and have a nice relationship with her, but alas, she's just too much!" His character was exactly the same type he has played for the last ten years and that's why I say Jill is actually a tiny bit likable. But even so I would not recommend this Adam Sandler show to anybody. Fart jokes, awful CG gags, distasteful jokes about Mexicans being gardeners and crossing the border (how is Hollywood still not sick of these? Do we still find it funny?), jokes about Jews, product placement, hysterical screaming.... Oh, Jhonny Depp makes a cameo for some reason... Not even a smile. I actually don't know how I stayed awake through this.
I was working at a juvenile recovery center and was forced to take some of the clients to see this movie. Since I can't come up with five lines to describe how bad this movie is, I will just say the following: suck, suck. I hope Adam Sanders burns in he'll for this movie. SUCK, SUCK, plays both parts of brother and sister, both should have died at birth. SUCK,SUCK. Please stop making movies like this. Leaving the theater after the movie was over was the only highlight.
