Rob Schneider certainly has what it takes to play a doofy, soft-bodied poseur hustler, but this dim farce makes the mistake of setting him up with a series of tricks even lowlier and more pathetic than he is. Go to Full Review Kaleem Aftab The List 04/13/2019

There are parts of it that are genuinely cute, and given the level of raunch, it's almost innocent. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Horror fan 4 @Horrorfan4life Jul 2 An underrated comedy starring Rob Schneider and had they kept this a solo movie it would stand out more. The rest of the cast is great to. This guy goes from cleaning fish tanks to man whoring to make repairs to a place that he's watching. I love the jokes and there are plenty of one liners to remember. Tim Treakle See more Oaklee D @ODie63 May 9 Made me laugh but didn't like the way it ended. See more NA N @NANA111 Feb 24 Better movie than any of the slop being made today and not even close! See more C G. @cg5051 Jan 6 People hate on this movie way too much, wicked funny, stupid, but funny See more Mania I. @TheMania510 Nov 25 Just plain stupid. This movie did not age well. I'm sure back when it came out it was a little bit funny but now it just seems so irrelevant , crude, and completely just there's really another word for it I've already said it stupid. Rob Schneider is somewhat funny but this basically is a Saturday night live skit that went way too long.
