    Another movie that should have been reviewed a long time ago. Plot is kind of lackluster and pointless. But Sandler vs. Nicholson is interesting and there are some good lines in the movie.

    Adam is a businessman who is wrongly sentenced. He goes on an anger management programme, where he meets the very unconventional instructor - Jack. Great characters but the plot is very weak.

Strenuous, spottily amusing. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

A comedy that doesn't call for a review so much as a prospectus. full review

Has its moments. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The concept is inspired. The execution is lame. Anger Management, a film that might have been one of Adam Sandler's best, becomes one of Jack Nicholson's worst. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

The only thing you'll be mad about is spending 10 bucks to watch Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler try too hard. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail

It's always a relief to come out of an Adam Sandler movie without a case of hives, and you can comfortably attend Anger Management without prophylactic antihistamines. full review

    A good role for Sandler, although a little esentric with the plot detailing. It shows us a view into the life of those who have anger management issues and, loosely, some methods use to attempt to overcome these issues. A good performance by Sandler, but not one of his best films.

    Anger Management is a really funny movie.The cast is
    really good and gives good performances. Sandler was very funny in this movie but Nicholson stole the show.

    This movie was so overly predictable with characters so stupid, my only consolation is that I didn't pay to see it. The acting, especially on Sandler's part, was nothing better than horrible, but the screenplay was the absolute worst thing about this movie. Such a waste!
