Don't listen to the bad reviews

Kevin James and Adam Sandler are hilarious in 'I Now Pronoce You Chuck And Larry.'But where are all of the bad reviews coming from?And why was this movie nominated for so many Razzie awards?In case you don't know,a Razzie is an award given to a movie for being bad or having a bad concept,such as worst actor or worst picture.But why this movie?This is a funny,funny,and like I said,funny movie.Okay,so maybe the movie offends many types of people,including gays,fat people,Asians,and so on.But that's one of the reasons why this movie is so dang funny.But if you are gay and you are reading this review,then I suggest you avoid this movie.That goes the same with fat people,Asians,etc.But if you're looking for a belly full of laughs,then I highly recommend this movie.
