Adam Sandler’s new comedy may be totally mediocre, but that’s still a big step up from the intensely unwatchable comedies he produced last year (see – or rather, don’t – ‘Just Go with It’ and ‘Zookeeper’). Sandler plays both title characters: Jack, a struggling adman, and Jill, the vulgar, oafish twin sister who becomes his unwanted houseguest. Admittedly, the film is merely a series of random celebrity cameos and shameless product placements (in one case, both – thank you, the guy from the Subway advert!). But there are a few moments of inspired absurdity, mostly provided by a surprisingly energetic Al Pacino, playing himself and channeling the smitten millionaire Joe E Brown from ‘Some Like It Hot’, as he falls head over heels for Jill.

  • HAd very low expectations. Was not able to get a ticket for the film I wanted to see as it wqas sold out, but was very pleasantly surprised, as it was very funny. Adam sandler was a hoot as Jill. It is sometimes a bonus to go with low expectation and roar outloud, good for the soul!

  • Also one hell of a step up from "FUNNY PEOPLE", but don't take that as any kind of recommendation. Laughs? No, but Cup-Pacino proves Al's game for one! 5/10
