Movie review

From Time Out New York

The eponymous man-whore returns to investigate a string of murders in Amsterdam while servicing hunchbacks and harelips. The most telling joke is a cruel throwaway suggesting that Janeane Garofalo is especially hirsute. Could it be because Adam Sandler, the executive producer of this junk, is still angry that Garofalo years ago labeled The Waterboy star's humor as witless? Schneider may have been too busy kissing his boss's ass to notice what is obvious: (1) A slimy toad like him shouldn't mock anyone else's appearance, and (2) Garofalo was right.
