Little Nicky (DVD) ... released 14 May, 2001 at Entertainment in Video / Features of the DVD: Anamorphic, PAL, Widescreen / In Little Nicky, Adam Sandler plays the sweetest of three sons of Satan (Harvey Keitel), who's got to go to Earth and retrieve his nasty, power-hungry brothers lest they take over Hell and make it a thoroughly evil place. As with Sandler's other films, this weird premise (based oh-so-loosely on King Lear) is just an excuse to trot out a hodgepodge of comic bits and cameo performances. Admittedly, a lot of the jokes don't work (there was no need to repeat the one about shoving a pineapple up Hitler's ass) but the ones that do tend to be more memorable than the ones that don't, making for a pretty funny movie, when all is said and done. Sure, it's hard to overcome Sandler's speech impediment du jour, not to mention that romantic subplot with Patricia Arquette but it can be done by focusing on the brilliant cameos by Regis Philbin, Reese Witherspoon, Ozzy Osborne, and Henry Winkler (especially when he's covered with bees), as well as one of the funniest uses of a scene from De Palma's Scarface in years. Supporting Sandler throughout are two very funny heavy metal disciples and a bulldog named Beefy (voiced by Robert Smigel, the man behind Triumph the Insult Comic Dog). And, in an almost unrecognisable cameo, that's Clint Howard as the cross-dressing fetishist named "Nipples".--Andy Spletzer, Amazon.com

Premium Review Little Nicky (DVD): My names Mr Beefy (467 words)
by - written on 04/11/07 (Useful, 46 readings)
Rating:

Just to get this straight before you read this review... I am a huge Adam Sandler fan... so there will not be too much criticism in it. Plot Nicky is the devils son, along with two others, Cassius and Adrian. Nicky is the 'nice one' and the others are scheming and evil but in a funny way. It becomes apparent that if the devils sons leave hell then then their father, the devil, will start to evaporate, piece by piece. Cassius and Adrian decide that they do not care and leave anyway and it becomes Nicky's roll to try and get them back to save his father. With the help of Mr. Beefy, a rather rude and hilarious dog, and other various characters Nicky has to ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Little Nicky (DVD): "You can do it Nicky..!" (716 words)
by - written on 28/11/09 (Very useful, 43 readings)
Rating:

Little Nicky is an Adam Sandler film released in 2000 to a very poor critical reception. Despite this I used to absolutely adore this film back when I was 12/13 and watched it practically day. A little older and, unfortunately, a lot more cynical I can now view this film with a more critical eye. Therefore last night I sat down to watch Little Nicky praying and hoping that it would be the triumph that I remembered it as. The film tells the story of Nicky (Adam Sandler), a young, fairly introverted man who, like millions of teenagers loves heavy metal music and suffers constant torment at the hands of his elder brothers. However, Nicky has one major difference ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Makes Elizabeth Hurley's Bedazzled Look Like It Was Chea ... (1292 words)

I wouldn't say that I was an enormous fan of Adam Sandler but its tough to deny that the guy has produced some of the funnier movies in recent years. Happy Gilmore was funny, The Wedding Singer cute and raised a smile in parts, Big Daddy watchable and Billy Madison I found hilarious but I'm probably in the minority there. Even when he has made a movie which is less impressive it has still offered a few giggles...until this one. Little Nicky is more annoying than funny which is a great shame because the old devil thing is certainly a rich picking ground for gags a plenty when handled correctly. This time dear old Satan is taking stock of 'life' ...  Read the complete review

If your father is being reduced to nothingness at the hands of your brothers, your father's life is on your shoulders, you're hit by a two vehicles and you meet the girl of your dreams, you'd probably take a breather, but this is just a prelude to what Nicky has to experience...in Hell. After Satan (Harvey Keitel) decides to renew his term of Satan-ship for another 10,000 years, two of his sons - Adrian (Rhys Ifans) and Cassius (Tommy Lister Jr) are furious. They break out of Hell and head to Earth, whilst freezing the gates of Hades - thus stopping any new souls entering Hell. Satan needs to souls to "feed" on, or he will decompose until ...  Read the complete review
