The Ridiculous 6 (2015) - Film Review

Review:

*Originally written December 12th, 2015*

"Cinematic Cancer"

I guess the real joke is on me for watching this. I thought under the handle of Netflix that they would manage to produce a film that was in line with Adam Sandler's films from the 90's. I should have known better, this was just utter, utter garbage.

Adam Sandler stars in this ensemble comedy with dozens of actors who are far and above this material. It follows Adam Sandler (Who is an Indian, yup, what the fuck) who finds out he has 5 other brothers (One of which is black, because lol, why the fuck not?) and they must all band together to raise some money to get their father out of a jam.

It's an atrocious Adam Sandler affair. I was one of the few people that enjoyed Pixels, but after this I am right back into the "Fuck You Adam Sandler" group.


The jokes are lame, unfunny and juvenile. One of the recurring jokes is a donkey that can shoot a strong stream of diarrhea from its asshole. Funny right? Jokes about shit? 

Don't get me wrong, I like juvenile humour, as long as its done right with charm, look at South Park as a case example. Here, it's just head shakingly embarrassing. Made worse by the fact it's 2 hours long. 2. Fucking. Hours. What the fuck were they thinking? This could and should have been no longer than 80 minutes, that would have at least made it a bit more tolerable, but at 2 hours, it is just an overkill of excruciating torture.


Netflix really did make a deal with the devil when they signed on to make a bunch of films with Sandler as The Ridiculous 6 is one of the worst films of the year. A true embarrassment to everyone involved.
