A pretty funny comedy as 2 New York firemen pretend to be gay for pension benefits. It has a strong cast and some quite funny scenes. One of the better more recent comedies made and starring the beautiful Jessica Biel!
Not as funny as I thought it could be. I love Kevin James (King of Queens rocks) but this just is'nt up there, really wanted to love it.
Lays on the "Christians Hate Gays" fallacy a little thick, but manages to avoid being a complete waste of time. Jessica Biel has never looked hotter.
Kevin James and Adam Sandler make a good comic duo. The movie follows the typical formula, but it's funny enough to be forgiven. While it's about a pair of rather douchey dudes ripping off the system (good reason or no), the undercurrent is really a heartwarming message of toler...( read more)

With a tacked-on PC message and leaden attempts at humor, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is a movie that gives marriage, homosexuality, friendship, firefighters, children and nearly everything el... full review
If there were a Straight Lack-of-Pride Parade, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry could be the grand marshal. The movie isn't insulting to homosexuals but to comedy. full review
In the credits, the filmmakers acknowledge Brooklyn firefighters who died on 9/11. It's an honorable gesture, but what of the previous two hours? What of the scenes portraying firemen as cigar-chompin... full review
Even with Sandler up to his old tricks, he and James aren't really to blame for the failure of this movie-by-committee that throws a bunch of tired jokes against the wall and settles for the two or th... full review
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry works hard at not being offensive. It just doesn't work hard enough at being good. full review
No comedy this year can beat this dud for mealy-mouthed hypocrisy. full review
It's a modern classic (despite a cheap-shot plug for Giuliani). By comparison, Hollywood's most celebrated gay comedies -- In and Out, Chuck and Buck, Blades of Glory, even the laughable Brokeback Mou... full review
Oddly Enough This is the only movie I can say that I laughed at non stop for like the first hour and a half then a couple lil pauses near the end. This to me is a great feat as I rarely laugh at a movie even my favorite comedies
I only laugh a half dozen times through the whole movie. With This it was literally nonstop when they were on to the next jokes I was still laughing at the last ones.
I was so suprised by this movie, I have been ignoring it I guess you could say just by hearing the title. I never even knew Adam Sandler was in it! even then as I started I thought ahhh it should be good. But No This Movie Was supoyb!
this film is well funny!! you got to go watch it with an english sense of humour and you will laugh your ass off!!!(no offence meant to anyone of any creed, colour or culture!!) so go.....enjoy the film!!
Dear Adam Sandler,
Just because you own a production company does not mean you get to narcissistically keep making terrible movies and mailing in awful performances, only to be shown up by every actor in your supporting cast. At least you won't be making $20M per movie anymore, though... well, on the other hand, I can see you paying yourself now that I think about it. At any rate, you have enough money I'm sure, please retire now and avoid stripping away any last tiny shred of dignity that Happy Gilmore or The Wedding Singer may have left.
Sincerely,
The Movie-Going Public
well....im satesfied with my money because you can laugh even cry, on the first till the end!!! you rock dude!!
it was fun to watch this movie ! had a good laugh as well all the way into it !
This was a waste of money! The few funny scenes were in the trailer. The rest was just wrong. I have gay friends and love them for who they are. The protesters in the movie gave a bad name to Christians. There are raticals but for the most part Christians don't think that way!
