Adam Sandler Is LITTLE NICKY
In the comedy LITTLE NICKY, Adam Sandler plays Nicky, a heavy metal rock fan who also happens to be the son of the devil. When it is announced that his father will not give up the throne and continue to rule hell for the next 10,000 years, Nicky's evil brothers go up to Earth to steal human souls and generally create hell on earth. Now, Nicky is charged with the task of bringing both of his brothers back to hell in order to restore the balance between good and evil all over the world and to save his father from rapidly decomposing. This movie is totally halarious with alot of perverted humor thrown in for good measure and it actually helps the story move along. Also includes cameo appearences by Rodney Dangerfield, Kevin Nealon, Reese Witherspoon, Jon Lovitz, Dana Carvey, and Ozzy Osbourne. The DVD edition of this film contains special features such as the theatrical trailer for the film, a behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of the film, an excellent documentary on heavy metal music, and a halarious commentary track.

Not as good as his others.
I want to laugh out loud at every Adam Sandler flick, but this one just didn't do it for me. Not that it was bad. Unlike his other movies, which I would classify as "hilarious", this one only rates an "amusing". This movie gave me the impression that it was done simply for a chance to do Hitler jokes and have Sandler dabble a little with magic. It also seemed to be a big excuse to have all of Sandler's friends join him in a movie. There are actors from all of his previous films in this one. Not that that's a bad thing. I just think it could have benefited from some better writing. The jokes weren't that funny and the characters were a little annoying at times.

Enough with the bad. On to the good. The characters that inhabited this film were unique and brilliantly played. The two wannabe Satan worshippers practically made the film. I think the high point of the whole film was the scene at the end with Ozzy Osborne. It was great!

All in all, an amusing movie, but not one of Sandler's better ones. The only one that this one beats is GOING OVERBOARD (whatever you do, stay away from that one!).
