Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler in Self Control (2003)

Review by experten

Self Control

10/10

Very funny. Not ruined by Sandler.

Adam Sandler have made a lot of crap and he has made those movies even worse by speaking in a very ridiculous but unfunny way.

I hated Waterboy and Big Daddy was easily forgotten. I saw him in another easily forgotten movie where he inherited money and I do not even care what the name was. It would only take me a few seconds to check it out here on IMDb but I prefer not to remember the title.

Anger Management is very funny though. The story is clever, the ending is clever (better than something some whiners here could come up with, that's for sure) and the dialogue and acting is even better.

The pacing is high, there are no unnecessary or boring scenes.

I have seen the flight scene several times and the therapy scenes are also absolutely brilliant. And the traffic disturbance scene. And the bar scene... You get the picture.

Adam Sandler is actually very good in this movie. Anger Management shows that good directing and a good story can reveal hidden talent.

Jack Nicholson is good as always. He was perfect for this role.

But I have to mention John Turturro, even though he only has a small role. This guy can act, drama or comedy does not matter. He is very good here. I think he should get more and bigger roles.

Anger Management is for you who like odd people and people getting into uncomfortable situations. It's for you who demand more than Rat Race or Johnny English. (Rowan Atkinson was funny as Mr. Bean and Black Adder in small doses on TV, but his movies sucks.)

My rating is 10/10, according to the IMDb rating system, of course. This is a movie I will see several times.
