adonis98-743-186503 Dave Buznik is a businessman who is wrongly sentenced to an anger- management program, where he meets an aggressive instructor. Anger Management boasts lots of laughs and although it gets a bit silly at times it does it's job pretty well and the chemistry between Sandler and Nicholson is great plus the rest of the supporting cast does a pretty great job as well. The story is simple and the jokes do land for the most part and like i said Jack Nicholson is Fantastic as always, this is also one of Adam Sandler's better films and much better performances and i think that even people who might not like him as an actor will find themselves surprised by how good the overall concept and comedy is and how good of a chemistry there is between the 2 leading men.
richspenc Anger management was indeed pretty stupid in many ways. The acting was sophomoric and dumb. Dave Buzneck(Adam Sandler) was actually more mellow in this film than in a number of his other films such as "Happy Gilmore" and "Drunk punch love". And that irony, since the name of this movie is Anger Management, is supposed to be a joke on its own. That's the first of many jokes here that failed. The next problem was with many of the other characters. Most of them acted pretty stupid. Lines such as "I lost my ice cream truck job today! No more fudgsicles!" and "Don't leave me Mom, you're all I've got! No more clam chowder"!" were annoyingly stupid. And Jack Nicholson's crying during that second quote I just listed was so weird and fake, and he was supposed to have been crying for real then. The next problem, the gimmick of how Sandler was actually acting quite calm but other people, such as the flight attendant and air marshal could only see him being angry. The next problem, Nicholson himself acting more lowbrow than ever. Just compare him here to his characters in "The shining" or "As good as it gets". The next problem, the overuse of cameos doing almost embarrassing roles. Such as Woody Harrelson in drag or NY mayor Rudy Giolanni saying an embarrassing line at Yankees Stadium. Then, the horribly cliché scene at Yankees Stadium. And we see quick cutaways to other movie characters in the bars, in their living rooms, all watching their TVs of Yankees Stadium being televised and they're all chanting along ("lets go David, lets go!") with the fans chanting the same thing at Yankee Stadium. It's so stupid. That never happens in real life. They used the same stupid idea at the end of the movie " Elf", where they cut away quickly to different places such as bars, homes, etc. where the people in those places are all watching their TVs and singing along with the televized characters singing in Central Park. It's all so fake and annoying. And so was this movie.The only good thing was how hot January Jones and her porn girlfriend were in both the sexy skimpy outfits they were revealed to be wearing at the restaurant, and the girl on girl kissing and fondling during the anger management session. I just did not understand why they would be viewed as someones with anger problems. Angry is not the word I saw them as, and their toe biting off and lips being stapled shut story was unconvincing and ridiculous, and did not match up with the way they were in this movie. The writers just needed some excuse to fit those hotties into the movie, and personally, I think that it was something in this movie that they did right.One more quick question; what the heck are slippy flippy, jelly stingers, trick sticks, and flying Willard's? I've been looking up websites on them and can't find any sites that say what they are. All I can find is movie quotes with the slippy flippy, etc. lines. What are they? Are they a kind of candy or snack treat you can only find in New York? Since that's where the movie is taken. Or are they just fictional products for this movie? If it's that, the movie should've explained what they are or else it's just something that completely went over our heads.
wkt1 Anger Management is one of the best movies i have ever seen with an excellent cast and story . I could not stop laughing Jack Nicholsons performance was very funny throughout the whole movie .Fans of both Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler will love this film .There is nothing bad i can say about this movie . The plot is very well thought out with no holes or problems like some of Adam Sandlers other movies . I have seen this movie at least ten times and every time i watch it it gets better . the supporting cast also help to make the movie so brilliant including Woody Harrelson and John Turturro who both have small but great parts in the film .
callanvass Dave Buznik (Sandler) flips out on an airplane after a miscommunication, and is sentenced to an Anger management program. His therapist is an abrasive loose cannon, who has methods that are unorthodox to say the least. Considering Dave's lonely life, meeting Buddy Rydell might be a blessing in disguise for him. I originally saw this in theaters and remember being highly amused by this movie. I didn't remember much about it...and decided to re-watch it. I enjoy Sandler's older movies when he actually cared about making people laugh. I wouldn't call this movie the perfect comedy by any means, but there are definitely some laugh out loud moments to be had. It's a little sad to see Nicholson stoop to these antics, but I'm not ashamed to admit that he was hilarious. He works well with Sandler and steals many of the scenes. I laughed my ass off at one of his quotes. "Then he pulled out his winky and told her it was a Strawberry Ice Cream Cone" He even sings "I Feel Pretty" with Adam Sandler! Nicholson isn't afraid to make a fool of himself in this movie and looked to be having a blast! The guy can turn anything into gold. Beneath him or not, he was amazing. It does get stagnant after a while, but for about 75-80 minutes, it's good times. It has your typical crudeness with Sandler's patented "childish routine" but he is funny. It's not a strong acting performance, but he is very entertaining! That's all that counts for me. Marisa Tomei's character is somewhat bland, but she's easy on the eyes and delivers an OK performance. Woody Harrelson has a small, but funny part. The last 25 minutes get sentimental and mushy, with a pretty clever twist that surprised me with how well it was executed. I used to be a big Adam Sandler fan! Hell, I still am to a certain extent. I'm just tired of being let down by his laziness. This movie does what it sets out to do, giving the viewer some outrageous laughs. That's what I wanted and that's exactly what I got. Remember!
