Really Surprised!

Powerful

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

For a comedy the story is proper but the problem is that the movie is too long and too boring, it could have been made half an hour shorter and you still didn't miss a thing. With only this main idea to stretch the picture for almost twp hours is too much.Then there is the acting. Adam Sandler with all his talent seemed to be dim in this role, I guess he was not 100% satisfied with the part that he had to act. Plus there is this orientation that will be mixed for the main characters and can be confused for some viewers so clearly is not for anyone. Too bad for the silly idea portrayed and the long runtime, with a different concept it could have been something much more watchable specially with that good cast.

Adam Sandler hit a winning formula for his movies which has garnered him a loyal fan base. He might be a proud Jew and Republican but he has Arabs, Muslims, Catholics, Hispanics, Blacks, Democrats (but probably not people from the Far East) who all seem to like his films where he plays the alpha male, one of the boys, sometimes with temperament issues, other times a little bit goofy who gets the girl and plenty of 1980s soundtracks.In I Pronounce You Chuck & Larry Kevin James is a widowed NYC Firefighter Larry worried about his kids future if he was to get killed in his job. Apparently he is unable to change his late wife's name to his kids names in his life insurance policy.In order to take advantage of a loophole he gets his fellow friend and firefighter Chuck (Adam Sandler) to post as gay partners so he can get his kids a pension. Chuck agrees as he owes him a huge favour for saving his life.The problem is that Chuck is a womaniser and their plan comes under suspicion so they hire a lawyer (Jessica Biel) who tells them to get married which they do and then face discrimination from people at work and others who disagree with gay marriage. Of course Chuck falls for the lawyer which results in more complications.The film was co-written by Alexander Payne who has two Oscars for best screenplays. I guess its because of his contribution the film is not a total dud as sometimes you feel like the duo's disbelieving boss played by Dan Aykroyd.Sandler is astute enough not to kiss Larry in the mouth and not to make an anti gay film. In fact despite poking fun at stereotypes and the bit about not being able to change the beneficiary being nonsense, the film actually makes a shrewd shout for gay equality and respect. The film is bit low brow in places and some of the humour is a bit hit and miss but Sandler manages to keep his fan base happy with his usual entourage of friends making cameo appearances but do we really need Rob Schneider doing a Mickey Rooney impression?

Seriously, how many women has Adam Sanders character slept with? With a womanizer like him, I don't think any women should sleep with him, not even Jessica Biel's character lol! I know this was part of the movie but it's really promoting an unhealthy way to form a relationship to viewers. I suppose that's why Adam Sandler came with this to make us laugh at a serious matter.Dan Aykroyd was brilliant playing the captain in this. I'm glad he got picked to be on this since he is very well known. Including Steve Buscemi playing the creepy inspectors (aka Randall from Monsters Inc). He actually did in some part sounded like Randall. I say he loved rooting for rubbish to see if the guys were actually a gay couple. I wouldn't call this my favorite movie but it's watchable!

This movie is hilarious. Kevin and Adam compliment each other very well. And they both are some of my favorite actors. They are two of comedies biggest stars alive if you ask me.The plot was very good and the acting was well executed. I found myself laughing numerous times during the entire movie. This movie is sure to get you to crack a smile and laugh out loud!! Great cheesy humor and awesome actors! Best friends are there for you. I loved how far these too went for each other in this film. The impact of what they did in this movie touched so many others.What they two have is what I call true friendship. I liked it a lot, you should see it.
