Gigolo malgré lui

This film was about Deuce Bigalow in the liberal Amsterdam to find the killer of man whores. Through the process, he was in for some culture shock and some man whoring.

The plot was silly and very politically incorrect. There were plenty of gross moments, such as vomiting wine through a tracheostomy hole or eating chips submerged in the toilet bowl.

However, I did not stop laughing throughout the film because Rob Schneider was so funny. He gave Deuce Bigalow a cute and innocent charm which was important in making Deuce Bigalow likable. The film was good for some light and non serious entertainment.

This movie was very funny. Despite the fact that the story is a little simple, generic, and weak, the movie contains non-stop jokes that will make you laugh, whether you want to or not. The movie does contain some immature humor, like the occasional fart joke, however, they are still funny. The movie also has quite a bit of creative humor. Eddie Griffin is a very funny part of the movie in a hilarious performance. This is a simple movie meant for no other purpose than to make you laugh, a purpose which it does a very good job of fulfilling. Do not treat it like a drama. It is a comedy and therefore it does not have to make perfect sense as long as it is funny. This is definitely worth seeing if you want to laugh and enjoy crude and simple humor, such as in a good Adam Sandler movie(an old one, the new ones suck) or a good Farrely brothers movie.

DEUCE BIGALOW (or "Deuce Not So Big Below" as he was called in this film! Lol!) is back, this time to be a "man-whore" in Europe! This sequel of DEUCE BIGALOW: MALE GIGOLO is pretty funny too, but even so, I think the first one was a bit more hilarious. But this one is very comical either.

I especially appreciated the part when they explain how to do a "Portuguese breakfast"!... I'm Portuguese and I've never heard of that (because it's just a joke, of course!). Maybe I should try it someday! Lol!

It was also nice the portrait of Amsterdam done in this movie, because it's too exaggerated, but it really must be what Americans think of Amsterdam I suppose! The scene where the cop is lightning TJ's joint, at the coffee-shop, or the scene where this guy says that the truck full of Marijuana that he's driving is to his daughter's birthday party, which is going to make 13, are hilarious and are hyperboles that clearly prove that exaggeration I mentioned.

Once again Rob Schneider does a great job in this funny and entertaining movie.

I loved 'Deuce Bigalow:Male Gigolo.'Even though the sequel was much funnier than the first,I can't admit that it was as good as the first.Sure,there were more funnier moments in it,but the first had more potential.The plot is basically the same as 'Male Gigolo',only it takes place in Amsterdam.Rob Schneider and Eddie Grifin return to their same roles as in the first.Rob Schneider plays Deuce Bigalow and Eddie Griffin plays TJ the man-whore.So you can tell that there's a good cast in this movie,since those are the only actors that I know in the movie.There's more gross-out humor and inappropriate dialouge than the first,which basically keeps the movie flowing.

Bottom line?This is a worth-watching comedy that fans of the first movie will enjoy.

Some of the comments here about this movie say that this movie is depicting the Netherlands wrongly. Drugs, prostitution and naked weather(wo)men. How crude!

I think this movie is a cute spoof on the Netherlands. Of course we don't have naked weatherwomen (unfortunately), but indeed we have coffee-shops which are very much unlike Starbucks, and although the legal status of prostitution is vague, it's not prohibited in certain areas in the country and indeed the prostitutes do pay taxes and have a health care plan. So in a sense it's true, albeit a bit over the top - for amusement value.

The movie shows some nice areas of the country, like the windmills, old cobblestone streets and canals. And it has a huge slew of famous and not-so-famous Dutch celebrities, which actually makes this movie fun to watch for a Dutchman! In fact, I think Dutch moviegoers would rate this movie higher than an American would do, as the latter might not get the tongue in cheek humor depicted within. Americans may even be offended at how the war in Iraq is mentioned by a Frenchman, and the aggression against people waving an American flag, sending out a political stab by Mr. Schneider.

There is much eye for detail, like the shirts Deuce is wearing, or the fact that he calls Eva 'ay-va' as the Dutch would do, the fun with the street name ('Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal', notorious in Holland for its red-light district) and the names and phone-numbers in the little black book (DVD freeze frame).

So, being Dutch myself, I found this flick pretty amusing!

PS. the cover of the Dutch version DVD is much more appropriate, showing an Amsterdam pavement divider post ('Amsterdammertje') instead of the Italian (!?) Leaning Tower of Pisa.
