    I thought it was funny

    This movie, I think, is one of Sandler's best and I laughed my A off. I've watched it probably 15 times and I still laugh. I think the characters were well formed and the comedic chemistry between Sandler and Wayans was really entertaining! I think Archie Moses was a cute and fun character(especially when he used this Budweiser dog as a hostage and then out of guilt he lets the mutt go).I also love it when he and Keats are at each others throats one minute and then best buds the next. My favorite line in the whole movie is when Keats and Moses are pulled over by the cops and Moses has to pretend he's mentally challenged and while pulling a dopey face he says "Disneylaaaaaaaaahhhhhnd." Hillarious. James Caan made a brief cameo as Sandler's notorious boss, Coulton and that was cool too.This movie is no Academy Award winner, but so what! It made me laugh and dispite other reviews it is my favorite Sandler, tied with The Wedding Singer and Happy Gilmore off course. Very, very humerous.

    Wasn't that bad.

    Not a bad action film featuring two comedians. I wish Adam Sandler worked out when he was younger and maybe he could have carved an action movie career for himself. He always had the quick wit, he just needed the brawn. So, BulletProof is actually very good action film.

    I'm not sure

    Damon Wayans and Adam Sandler team up in this film about betrayal, loyalty, friendship, and getting a gun in your a**. I actually found some scenes funny, but this type of film isn't really made for Sandler (or Wayans for that matter). But, they try, and they succeed, sort of. James Caan is good as a villain boss. B+

    Very Underrated Action Buddy Film !

    Bulletproof is a Fun Movie with nice Action Scenes ,Funny Jokes and a Great Buddy Duo with Adam Sandler and Damon Wayans. They are tons of funny Jokes and both Actors played very well. I don't get the low rating for this very Underrated Action Comedy Gem from the 90s. It's a Fun Movie and clearly one of the best Roles from Adam Sandler. I can Recommend it !

    Underrated for sure

    I thought it was pretty good. It had good action, decent story and there was some really funny parts. I bought it cheap at Walmart and I'm glad I did. I will watch it again for sure.

    • Trivia
      James Caan said of working with the leads, "playing the heavy between these two clowns took a lot of serious concentration."
    • Goofs
      When Keats and Moses are jumping from the plane as it falls over the side of the cliff, you can very clearly see that the two men jumping are not the actors, but instead their stunt doubles. To make it even more glaring, Damon Wayons' character is speaking but his stunt double's mouth is not moving.
