It's choppy and cheap-looking, and it has dead spots like the Sahara, but it also has a surprising number of genuinely funny bits, most of them slapsticky and gleefully rude.
Surprisingly funny, a deep-down-good-hearted take on that oldest of comedy conventions, the ill-prepared rube caught up in a situation that somehow never gets the best of him.

My Family and I absolutely love this Rob Schneider Movie.
We love that the movie Makes fun of one man’s misery, that he has to turn to Prostitution to make some money, in a short period of time.
And the Characters he meets, are very special in their own way.
Report
It's short, this movie, an attribute Sandler himself might take heed of, and if the teenagers in the back row are laughing harder and more often, you might at least find yourself smiling (guiltily) every few minutes.
The kind of surprising giggles that make you wonder why you're laughing--- that's worth a few bucks.
He's (Sandler) trying to clone himself by supporting his buddies in making low-budget, high-grossing -- in all senses of the word -- formula films just like his own.
Mitchell's film would be another example of why former SNL cast members should choose their scripts wisely, except that Schneider wrote this one.
A little Disney Christmas release that comes wrapped in used toilet paper.
Just genious .

I love this movie. When it first came out I never seen anything like it. It's so hilarious. The worst gigolo ever!
Report
When Deuce Bigalow is fired from his job cleaning fish tanks, he meets a male prostitute that asks him to care for his fish whilst he is away. When he breaks an expensive fish tank, he finds himself working as a gigolo to pay for the damages. It’s hard to fathom quite why this was such a big hit at the box office as, despite the best efforts of Rob Schneider, the tired old jokes very quickly become rather grating.
