Hur hur hur - funny! The sort of movie that is great if you don't expect anything from a movie but easy humor that you can watch while also surfing the net.

Would probably rank as one of the all time worst movies, if it weren't for its sequel.

Ignore the square reviewers - they must be glum booring people that need to relax and learn to enjoy a good funny film! This is a laugh a minute film and I would reccomend it to any bloke - and some women, although my wife seemed to think it was in poor taste! That has got to be a selling feature !!!

Others may relate to this - Deuce Bigalow is the type of film that I'd normally never watch. It's a genre that, though sometimes capable of being riotously entertaining, houses some of the worst pieces of cinematic work (s..t) ever made. And being a betting man, if pushed, I would have had a lazy hundred on DB slotting in comfortably with that lot. So naturally I did not seek this movie out and never would have - but, somehow, it found me - and I now know I would have lost that hundred bucks! This is a funny film. Certainly a crude, inane film with no enriching messages to give - but also plain funny. It has character (albeit low-type), charisma and a handful of decent gags, making it unexpectedly watchable, if not entertaining. I saw it on television recently during one of those nights one has where you fumble about aimlessly until something holds your interest long enough to carry you to bed time; as I said, it found me. For the first hour I sat, remote control primed and aimed, fully expecting to be bored and/or turned off within minutes, for those reasons stated above. Instead, I smiled, then laughed, then cared, and stayed, and in the end was won over by a frivolous and immature film that sent me off to bed with a doofy grin on my face and very few cares in my head, except possibly the "how and why" of it all.
Pat C. gave it a 1:
Such an easy film to criticize. Hardly seems fair. As for redeeming qualities, they are overshadowed by the urge to kick the leading character in the nuts, but the suspicion is he doesn't have any. There is something in this film for every guy to laugh at, it's just that some of guys won't like who they see in the mirror the next morning. I have to give it a point because I was at least able to watch it from start to finish.
E. S. gave it a 7:
I love it. I had hangover when I watch it, but anyway it was so so so so suprising and made me really laugh. I recommend to everyone who doesn't know for sure what to watch and want to throw own brains in the closet for a while.
Jacques R. gave it an 8:
Surprisingly hillarious!! Rob Schneider is fresh, and the humor is sharp and fun. Heartwarming moral to the story as the he-bi*ch attempts to get out of his jam.
