I'm almost embarassed to admit I actually went to see this in the theatre. But I had a coupon and nothing much to do, and I like Adam Sandler, so I figured, why not?

Well, I'll tell you why not: this is one of the dumbest movies ever released. Adam Sandler's movies can be categorized into either brilliantly funny (The Wedding Singer) or horribly idiotic. This one definately falls into the latter category.

It had a couple of lines here and there that were funny, I'll give it that. But begin with one of the most ridiculous plotlines ever conceived, throw in a talking dog, some low-brow humour about body parts, and some fanatic satanist Ozzy fans, and you come up with the disaster that was Little Nicky. I won't even bother to comment on the acting, cause there wasn't any.

For those of you who were thinking "well of COURSE it's dumb, that's the point!", well, save your money. There are a lot of movies out there that aren't necessarily thinking movies but that are actually funny. This isn't one of them. In short, do yourself a favour and save your money.
