Comedy of comedy
Added 9/21/2009
This is a story of the mainly-man New York Fire Department employers having decided to somehow rip-off the States financially.
Probably, like in a case of the Australia-linked Strange Bed Fellows, producers' intentions were the best as comedy itself sometimes rather ostracized than provided any good for same gender affairs embedded from a notion of both legal and domestic ambiguity.
Anyway, it is much better than usual pif-paf kill-murder TV screening and advertisements instantly interrupting increased its broadcast by three hours which speaks itself of a film popularity supposed.

I try not to watch new movies because they are time wasters and most of them suck but this one was a pleasant suprise. I find myself laughing even on the 7th viewing. I even recommend this one to homophobes(like my dad). Funner if watched with a group of people.

Chuck, Larry, and Jessica Biel's Body
Added 6/26/2009
Adam Sandler and Kevin James star as heterosexual New York City firefighters Chuck and Larry who are forced into a domestic partnership, so that Larry can keep getting his benefits to help support his two children after his wife passes away. When a noisy city investigator threatens to expose their charade to the entire world, Chuck calls in a lawyer named Alex (Jessica Biel) to defend their partnership in front of the city council. The situation turns when Chuck (Adam Sandler.) falls for Alex, but can't tell her his feelings because Larry (Kevin James) will lose the case and his benefits leading to some awkward semi-funny situations. If your a fan of Adam Sandler and Kevin James comedy and/or seeing Jessica Biel's body, this movie is for you, if your looking for a serious movie though, take a pass.

KEVIN JAMES, STEVE BUSCEMI, AND VING RHAMES
Added 6/18/2009
I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU CHUCK & LARRY
I am a huge Kevin James fan and when I found out about this movie I was extremely excited, come on Adam Sandler is in it to. A lot people don't seem to like the Happy Madison films for one reason or another but I have enjoyed all of them, especially any one with Kevin James and Steve Buscemi. Those two right there are two of my favorite actors of all time, Buscemi is absolutely an amazing actor and James is brilliant. Of course the whole group when to theaters to see this and was at my house the night it was released. This is not a classic movie but it is a fun one with some great characters and James is great in this.
The film follows Chuck [Sandler] and Larry [James] who are two firefighters in New York who are very much the opposite of each other. Chuck is a womanizer and Larry is still grieving over his wife and rearing two kids. It turns out that Larry can't switch is pension over to his kids so he has only one option, marry Chuck. He learns that when you marry again you can switch it to them, enter his idea for Chuck. Of course Chuck is not down with it at first but gives in for his friend and they form a domestic partnership. Of course when word gets out the city and their fellow firefighters are not happy with this, except Ving Rhames of course. Add in a beautiful woman named Jessica Biel and you have the makings for a good movie.
Director Dennis Dugan does a good job and shows why he is a vet at Happy Madison films, he keeps things moving nicely and nothing seems overly done. The writers of this film did a good job although it just doesn't work all the time. Still the performers keep things going nicely such as the great Kevin James. Once again he is cast in the every man role and plays a single father very well. Adam Sandler actually makes sense in this role, don't get me wrong I like him in everything but sometimes he over does it. Jessica Biel is as lovely as ever and turns in a great performance as does the legendary Dan Aykroyd. One of the greatest actors ever Steve Buscemi is very funny as the guy trying to prove them wrong and Ving Rhames gets close to stealing the show. Nich Turturro, Allen Covert, Gary Valentine and such all turn in great performances, and Dave Matthews steals the scene he is in away from Sandler. Rob Schneider is very funny as the preacher in Canada here and David Spade is great as well.
This will not win any Academy Awards but it is a good enough comedy to keep you entertained, and it is not an anti gay film like some seem to think. Sandler and company made sure to not try to offend any one. With that said this is a fun flick that I think most would enjoy, a rental for some a purchase for others. The thing about this flick is some may find it very upsetting [still don't know why] while others may think it is fine, I think the humor and style of the film is ok. Of course the reason to see this is because of Kevin James easily but every one especially Steve Buscemi and Ving Rhames turn in great performances.
All in all this is a fun movie with some off the wall moments and some good laughs. I recommend a rental first to see how you like it and then go from there. Me, I loved and own the DVD and T shirt combo. Kevin James once again does his thing and turns in another great performance.
