Company:

Trivia:

It represents Adam Sandler and Universal's fourth collaboration and their first movie together in eleven years. It is also Sandler's first major film not released by Columbia Pictures since Little Nicky (2000), which was released by New Line Cinema.

Goofs:

Factual errors: The scene where Chuck and Larry extinguish a fire at a diner caused by an employee smoking marijuana, Chuck uses a fire extinguisher to spray that employee in the face. The extinguisher has a cone shaped nozzle which is indicative of a carbon dioxide extinguisher. This type does not leave any residue like in this scene which leaves a bunch of powder.

Quotes:

[As Larry introduces himself to Kevin]
Larry Valentine: Larry--Chuck's better half.
Chuck Levine: Two-thirds, actually.

Somewhere between Crap and Funny....

... this movie is firmly lodge.

I laughed out loud on more than one occasion. There are a few amusing cameos (my favorite being Dave Matthews as a flamboyant personal shopper). But I think the overall joke hit to miss ratio is probably something like 1 in 10. Sandler and James are just fine in their roles, but they didn't have much to work with. The story doesn't really work- way too many holes, even for a comedy. I think the movie just loses it's touch by going back and forth between overly general, unflattering depictions of homosexuals and sloppy attempts to make Chuck and Larry folk heroes to the gay community. All if it is done in such a way that none of it is believable. The movie is never quite as funny as it should be, and nowhere near as touching as it's desperately trying to be.
