The irresistible pairing of Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler is the best reason to see Anger Management, a comedy that might loosely be called The Funny and the Furious. Nicholson and especially Sandler have screen personas that partially rely on pent-up anxieties, so there's definite potential in teaming them as a mild-mannered designer of pet clothing for chubby cats (Sandler) who's been ordered to undergo anger-management therapy with a zany counselor (Nicholson) prone to occasional tantrums and devious manipulation. Surely this meandering comedy looked better on the page; director Peter Segal scores a few lucky scenes (particularly Sandler's encounter with a Buddhist monk, played by John C. Reilly), but a flood of cameos (Heather Graham, Woody Harrelson, Rudolph Giuliani, and others) can't match the number of laughs that fall flat. As Sandler's understanding girlfriend, Marisa Tomei plays a pivotal role in a happy ending that leaves everyone smiling, with the possible exception of the audience. --Jeff Shannon

 lightweight bubblegum with a few laughs September 4, 2008
I'd be tempted to slam "Anger Management" as another slice of lighthearted, sanitized mental-illness swill from Hollywood (it does play out like "28 Days" meets "The Dream Team"), if it wasn't for Jack Nicholson's manic performance--he hasn't been this funny since "The Shining." Adam Sandler does well, and exhibits some control as a guy with problems containing his rage (I'll admit...I've never seen any of his other movies). But poor Marisa Tomei...the girl who once won an Oscar has become one-dimensional background scenery, indistinguishable from any would-be starlet. The movie's lowbrow humor and endless parade of cameos gets tedious near the end, and from the overhead shot of a packed baseball stadium that kicks off the last act, anyone who's even half-awake will be able to predict the unforgivably sappy conclusion. Average entertainment redeemed somewhat by Nicholson's inherent zaniness.
Hilarious! June 18, 2008
Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson star in this movie about a person named Dave (Sandler) who has to take Anger Management classes for "abusing" a woman on a plane. From then on everything goes from bad to worse for Dave. I overall enjoyed watching this movie. It has a lot of funny parts to it. It definately gets its PG-13 rating from some of the language in it, though. But overall, its a great movie.
wickedly funny May 26, 2008
adam sandler & jack nicholson can't get any funnier than this, this movie is so funny that it'll have you lauhing until you cry. this is a good movie.
 Nice return to form for Sandler March 25, 2008
I have to say Anger Management was the best Adam Sandler film I'd seen since Big Daddy back in 2003. Sandler and Jack Nicholson have great chemistry in this funny comedy. The trailer pretty much gives you the plot but unlike some comedys the trailer doesn't spoil all the jokes. The cameos and in jokes put tears in my eyes in this film. The film is taking a beating from some folks and from critics but just go and see this film with a open mind and enjoy it.
funny March 22, 2008
This movie is pretty funny. If you like other Adam Sandler movies (Waterboy, Happy Gilmore, etc.) then you will like this one as well.
