What can I possibly say? This is no "Citizen Kane," but this is one of the movies that sticks out in my mind the most. It's a twisted, crude, tasteless comedy but never ceases to bring out extreme laughter, even after I've seen it approximately 200 times--give or take. I just cannot get tired of this movie! There are things in this movie that cannot be understood, like every Sandler flick. What the hell was the deal with the penguin? However, it's a memorable moment. There are so many memorable quotes from the film. It's one of those movies I can quote line per line off the top of my head.
Here's a share of my favorite quotes:
(singing) "Suntan lotion is good for me. You protect me. Tee-hee-hee."
"O'Doyle rules!"
"It's too damn hot for a penguin to be just walkin' around. I gotta send him back to the South Pole."
"You're giving the company to Eric? He is a bad, bad man."
Adam Sandler has that brand of comic genius in which you don't know what you're laughing at, but it's damn funny! You can't help it! I can't rant and rave about anything artistically brilliant about "Billy Madison." Yet it's one of my favorite movies of all time.
It's funny, it's original, it's Sandler! Nuff said.
My score: 8 (out of 10)
