    You expect cheap gags from a Rob Schneider movie, and The Animal delivers in the best possible way. Schneider plays Marvin Mange, a schlub of a police file clerk who drives off a cliff and is horribly mangled--only to wake up not only whole, but feeling better than he ever has in his life. He suddenly develops strange powers that lead to him being praised as a super cop. Unfortunately, his powers are the result of a scientist's bizarre experiment--and before long, some side effects start to take over his life. It's hard to put a finger on Schneider's appeal, but he's got something. He can get away with tasteless jokes about bestiality and bodily functions because... well... he's sort of helplessly sympathetic, and somehow this actually makes him funny. --Bret Fetzer

    Product Description
    SMALL, WIMPY MARVIN DOESN'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO FULFILL HIS DREAM TO BE A COP. BUT HIS LUCK CHANGES WHEN HE'S CRITICALLY INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND A DERANGED SCIENTIST SECRETLY USES ANIMAL ORGANS TO REBUILD HIM. ENERGIZED BY HIS NEW PARTS, MARVIN LEAVES HIS WEAKNESS BEHIND AND ACHIEVES INSTANT FAME.

    4 out of 5 stars I Have To Admit: This Is Pretty Funny   May 8, 2009
    Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
    This was just plain funny and very entertaining throughout the goofy 83 minutes. Crude? Yes, at times, but what modern-day comedy isn't lately? The PG-13 rating is a joke. With all the sexual stuff in here, "R" is more appropriate.

    Some of that sleazy stuff, to be honest, was pretty funny, though and there isn't much profanity. I really thought this would be a stupid film but Rob Schneider's animal imitations are hilarious and, overall, this a very fast-moving, silly-but-lots of laughs film.

    Schneider, as "Marvin," plays his goofy Deuce Bigelow-type character on us, trying to get the pretty girl "Rianna" (Colleen Haskell). That's about it, in a nutshell.



    5 out of 5 stars the animal   February 12, 2009
    Desiree Hodge (Fresno,CA USA)
    if you like adam sandler you should definately see this..rob one of his many friends that are always in his movies stars in his own comedy adventure this time..the chick from one of the early survivor seasons is in here too as his love interest..lol..talk about 15 minutes of fame..lol..but its a good movie and id watch it over and over again.


    4 out of 5 stars Very Funny!!!   October 11, 2008
    PUMPKIN MAN
    I thought Rob Schneider did a really good job! He's always funny in what he does. He plays Marvin Mange, who is very weak. He wants to be a cop like his dad, but he can never pass the obstacle course. When he is in a car crash, a doctor fixes him by putting animal parts in him. He soon has animal powers and can smell drugs in a man's butt. Marvin dates a beautiful woman named Rianna, who owns an animal shelter. Later, bad things happen while Marvin is asleep, like cows being eaten, and a hunter being attacked. Is Marvin doing it? If you love comedy, and Rob Schneider, you'll love THE ANIMAL!!!


    3 out of 5 stars One of Schinder's best   March 25, 2008
    Derrick Dunn (Woodbridge,VA)
    Rob Schinder has always been funny to me, but when I say his first starring role in Deuce Bigalow, I was highly upset.Seeing Deuce Bigalow proved my theory that not all comics can cary their own film just ask David Spagde. Back in the summer of 2001 I saw The Animal and Rob got me back as fan. Rob shows his true comdeic genius as Marvin delivering cheap gags which are always good for a laugh.

    Potential policeman and klutz Marvin (Rob Schneider) is always in direct competition with Sgt. Sisk (John C. McGinley) for popularity. Marvin has an accident that is life threatening; a passing experimental doctor repairs Marvin with a few parts from various available animals. Now Marvin with fighting to control his urges finds a new life style. He must question his character, while others including a beautiful dog walker Rianna (Colleen Haskell) think they know him.

    We also must control our urges as the mob tracks down the animal with torch and gun.
