If you took this seriously I really feel sorry for you. Yes Adam Sandler isn't the best but in all honesty, why are you still watching him in the first place? There must be some sort of draw to him. Kind of like how most people feel with Nicholas Cage. there must be some kind of redeeming factor.
Anyway I personally loved it. Granted I like a lot of terrible movies. I just really really liked this as far as Adam Sandler movies go. Basically put, if you like Adam Sandler at all here and there, give this movie a go. If not, then why are you reading this review of it in any way, shape or form. It gets my recommendation as far as dumb comedies go. That is all. Gbye m8s.

Watched this through netflix - I liked not having to go to cinema to watch it - don't think it needs the big screen for special effects, sound or big expansive shots. Enjoyed the laughs. Storyline was good enough, not great - really just a vehicle for funnies. Enjoyed watching Taylor L act a completely different character. Some of the mushie bits and the few slap stick body part grotesque scenes were too cringey for me.
Over all enjoyable with quotable parts. There's so many movies out now but few that I find are more than mediocre - this one just pips over mediocre mark :)

I loved Sandler in his heyday, with comedies like Billy Madison, Waterboy, Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates, You Don't Mess With The Zohan etc., but have been disappointed in his offerings as of late (Grown ups 1/2, Jack & Jill, Blended etc.). This one wasn't bad, however.
If you don't like Sandler's comedy, then why would you watch this? It's a silly comedy with silly jokes (there are some poop/fart jokes, but it's not all like that), but my brother and I got some good laughs while watching this together. The baseball scene was pretty dumb, but the rest of the movie was decent.
It's not Sandler's best, but not his worst at all. It was worth the watch, especially considering that it was "free" with a Netflix subscription.
Bottom line, if you like Sandler's comedies, you'll like this. Just don't take it too seriously. It's better than most of his recent disappointing films.

There's two kinds of Netflix programming: the stuff you watch regularly and intently, like Netflix's ongoing series, and then the stuff you just sort of have playing in the background as you do other stuff. The Ridiculous Six falls into the second category.
Some Sandler movies are just flat out awful. But Ridiculous Six manages to be mildly amusing at times. It's impossible to buy Sandler as a bad-ass Indian tracker, but that's probably the point. You've probably never seen Taylor Lautner or Jorge Garcia like this before--but whereas Garcia is pretty funny as a mumbling moon-shine- making hillbilly, Lautner as a simpleton just gets grating after awhile. Also, somewhat surprisingly, the funniest guy out of the six is Rob Schneider, whose Mexican character manages to steal every scene he's in. Terry Crews and Luke Wilson are just there and don't really add much to the proceedings.
The best parts of the movies are Will Forte's bumbling band of one-eyed bandits and the cameos--seriously, some of these cameos are just flat out awesome. Particularly a couple cameos that occur during a poker scene.
Chances are good if you're a Sandler/Happy Madison fan, you'll enjoy this.

This is not your usual Adam Sandler movie. In fact it is in some ways a kind of tribute to blazing saddles. Much of the same kind of humor in both movies. The premise is of course ridiculous, the acting ridiculous, the action is ridiculous, that is kind of the point. It's just good fun. It's what happens when you get a lot of veteran actors together and let them go wild.
It was fun seeing many of these actors in the same movie. Even if some were just making cameos. Reminds me a lot of Mel Brooks but with a 2000s flair and references.I have run out of things to say but the line checker nazi robot from hell has deemed my review too short. Thus I shall wax on, wax off about absolutely nothing for a line or two to appease the nazi robot line checker.
