  Little Nicky is yet another lame Adam Sandler comedy. Though there were some aspects of the film I enjoyed, as a whole, the film failed as a comedy. The comedic elements are very poor, as well as the acting. The cast are dull, boring and annoying. The high point of the film is Ozzy Osbourne's cameo. Even with, it doesn't save the film from being a total misfire. Adam Sandler displays a tired out comedy routine with Little Nicky, thus the film suffers from poor comedy, which gets tiring very quickly. I laughed a few times; unfortunately this is not a film that you can laugh over and over. Little has stood the test of time, and the comedic elements are tired, sloppy and plainly stupid. The comedy came out when I was still in High school, so I loved it back then, as an adult in my mid twenties, I view it now as an awful comedy with nothing really to enjoy, aside from the metal music used and Ozzy's cameo. Other than those two elements, the film is bad, forgettable, with a poor cast. This could have been a funny film if it wasn't for Sandler and the usual cast that he stars with. I found them to be quite dry, and they really didn't deliver any laughs. Little Nicky is a boring, forgettable comedy that hasn't stood the test of time. I hated the film, and thought it was a wasted opportunity to do something great. The film really disappointed me, and is one of Sandler's worst.

  This was the first movie I saw on a date in middle school, and even then I didn't think it was funny. Plain stupid.

  Another Adam Sandler classic!

  This comedy film in hell is bored and brings lack of laughs. Adam Sandler is a good actor although I do consider him an acquired tastes and this is definitely not his finest hour. Another problem is that the film looks incredibly ugly. The production is awful. Hell looks, for lack of a better and less offensive term, retarded. There is around 3 sets I've noticed. Nicky's room, the entrance to hell, and the throne. The cast boasts wasted cameos and small parts, including Rodney Dangerfield, Jon Lovitz (who goes to hell in the first scene), Reese Witherspoon in a remarkably cute role as Nicky's angel mother, Quentin Tarantino, Ozzy Osbourne and Rob Schneider. The duds for the most part get out of the way to make room for better things, including spot-on support from Harvey Keitel as a Devil Dad and Patricia Arquette as the design student love interest with no design sense. It's got a plot, effects and jokes. what more do you want?

  Adam Sandler plays the son of Satan and even though it is portrayed very dumb, it has it;s moments where you can crack up. It's not a great film, but it makes me laugh a lot.

  I really didn't care for this.

• Dead A

  
  One of my friend recommended it and I watched and I regret. He said it's cool but I think not. It's just okay.

  I think this is so bizarre and demented, that it's one of the best things Adam Sandler has ever done. It has a lot of interesting characters, including Harvey Keitel as the devil and Kevin Nealon as a sex object with brests on his head. It's just way too much fun to pass up.… More
  I think this is so bizarre and demented, that it's one of the best things Adam Sandler has ever done. It has a lot of interesting characters, including Harvey Keitel as the devil and Kevin Nealon as a sex object with brests on his head. It's just way too much fun to pass up. It's actually one of Adam Sandler's better roles in that it's actually different.

  Not that funny and I don't appreciate all the making fun of religion.

  <i>"He's Never Been To Earth. He's Never Even Slept Over Some Other Dude's House."</i> The youngest child of the family often has the most problems -- so why should things be different for the Prince of Darkness and his offspring? Satan (Harvey Keitel) is considering retirement, and is pondering which of his sons should take over the family business -- ambitious Adrian (Rhys Ifans), strapping Cassius (Tommy "Tiny" Lister Jr.), or Nicky (Adam Sandler), an accident-prone demon who prefers to stay in his room playing his favorite heavy metal tunes. When Satan decides to stay on for another 10,000 years, Adrian is outraged, and leaves Hell to go to New York, where he and Cassius attempt to round up enough souls to vote Satan out of power. Satan, understandably upset, sends Nicky to bring Adrian and Cassius back home, but Nicky finds life on Earth is more complicated than he expected. Things don't get any easier when he develops a crush on Valerie (Patricia Arquette), a good-hearted mortal woman. <b><u>Review</u></b> This is the most asinine piece of garbage for the year 2000. It's not funny at all and after 10 minutes you want to strangle Sandler for that annoying voice he makes up for Nicky. For the amount of special effects and cameos in it, I could have made a movie about heaven and hell 20,000 times better than this bunk and for 1/3rd the price. Sandler's worst movie; even though he's never going to make a Citizen Kane, that still says a lot. As an alternative, go rent Happy Gilmore and fast forward to Bob Barker calling Sandler a "bitch."

  Quite possibly the most annoying film I have ever seen. Adam Sandler sets my teeth on edge as it is but Little Nicky made me want to poke my eyes out and stick them in my ears!

  Well....it's fun...but it's just too much

  Popeye's chicken is the shiznit!

  Great head-banging son-of-satan on Earth comedy with Adam Sandler. It's what Dogma should've been. "Little Nicky" must stop his two older brothers from raising the levels of evil on Earth. Nicky learns a lot about mortals during his stay in New York, with some hilarious consequences. He has some limited powers and a Bull Dog named Beefy. It has many enjoyable and funny scenes. Was this movie sponsored by "Popeye's Chicken"?

• Dan S

  
  Not to great.

• Bobby H

  
  Good movie, but not one of Sandlers best. Went a little crazy with the ideas from hell - but other then that, another good one!

• Daniel P

  
  I lasted about 25 minutes.

• Rachel F

  
  Really funny but slightly twisted

• xGary X

  
  Enjoyment of this film depends entirely upon whether you hate Adam Sandler slightly less than you like Harvey Keitel. The jury is still out...

• Lanning :

  
  As bad as Sandler gets.
