Hot Chicks Can't Save this Movie...

I'll admit it... I am a typically a Rob Schneider fan. The guy can flat-out make me laugh. I was one of the few critics who liked and recommended both 'Deuce Bigalow' and 'The Animal'. However, this latest effort is a rather routine and tired retread of his earlier movies blended with the not-so-comic-genius of the 1970's TV show, 'Bosom Buddies'. I suppose there are some giggles to be found here... but they are too few and far between to make this goofy comedy a recommendable one.

This film apparently caught a case of Sandler-itis. As has been the case in most of Adam Sandler's latest outings, this film is ridiculously over-sentimental and filled with politically correct messages about what's really important in life. Let's get this straight... I do not need my slapstick comedies to tell me what's morally important in this world. Quit the preaching and get to the jokes!!!

I cannot recommend this movie. 'The Hot Chick' is one of those films that has no redeeming value whatsoever. And even though it can still make you laugh from time to time while you're doing something else and don't have to pay close attention, I wouldn't go out of your way to see it.
