Review of The Longest Yard (2005) by Jenn M — 05 Apr 2015
Well, as is typical with Adam Sandler movies, it kinda blew.
First off, on what planet is Sander being a football player even remotely plausible? The British version, Mean Machine at least had an actor who used to be a soccer player, I mean, it would have been more realistic if they had cast Andy Dick as a football star in this. I must say though that Tracy Morgan was awesome in this and that role was cast perfectly.
Overall this just seemed like a jumbled mess of nonsensical stories, bizarre rivalries, strange prisoner casting, mostly from the wrestling world and a so - so plot. Not enough to make a great movie.....Mean Machine was exceptional though.
