bcpridgin First off I love Adam Sandler and his movies...I gave The Ridiculous 6 a 9 out of 10.... which it deserves.... it is better than Blazzing Saddles. Yea, I said it.That being said, even though I am a big fan of Adam I did not like this movie enough to watch twice. It was interesting to see him play a serious role, but the movie as a whole didn't work for me. I really enjoyed Punch Drunk Love. That is still Adam's best serious role movie.

pheathco I really don't understand the negative reviews of this film, I was hooked right from the getgo, and I usually can't stand Adam Sandler!

Mr Black I had never even heard of this movie but saw it in the video store by accident and bought it only because it's an Adam Sandler film. Well, if anything it is one of the most original stories I've seen. Very different. It also explains why I stayed in school and don't have to go through the humdrum existence of living like the cobbler does. It was an OKAY movie but not one I'll watch again any time soon. Perhaps in a few years when i come across it in my collection and can't remember what it is about, I'll take it out again and give it a go.

grumpy-3 loads of spoilers, but how can you spoil a really bad and in many ways a nasty film. let me say that i am an adam sandler fan, and have liked most of his films. this could have been great but has one of the worst scripts and stories ever put to film. so the idea of getting to know someone by stepping into their shoes is a good idea. so what do they do with it, he finds out using a special stitcher, handed down for generations, and if the shoe fits then he becomes that person. but only physically and with their voice, he is still himself. so instead of thinking of good uses for this, the film spends about 15 minutes with him goofing around beceome other people, none of this is funny, he then gets involved with a nasty gangster and decided to become him, leading him into ever more stupid escapades that no person with normal intelligence would ever dream of doing,this all leads to a plot to throw and old timer out of his apartment, or burn him down, and by even more stupid and unlikely plots twists Sandler saves the day. there is one bit where he puts on his dads's shoes, the dad in question having abandoned him and his mother, to grant his mum's wish to spend one last evening with her husband, this came very near to incest, throughout the film the character does'nt not develop, grow and learn anything, he is as stupid and undynamic as he was at the start. we kept watching to see how they would get to the happy ending, and we wish we had not
