Consensus: According to critics, Deuce Bigalow is just too dumb and filled with old, tired gags.

When Antoine, a successful gigolo with a sick fish, has to leave the country for a few weeks, he offers Deuce the opportunity to housesit for him. Predictably, Deuce manages to trash the place and must enlist the aid of pimp TJ (Eddie Griffin) to help him pay for the damages. TJ turns him, in a series of absurd preparations, into a prostitute. The subsequent encounters with self-conscious females provide the film with its biggest laughs, and eventual moral: enable a woman to feel confident about herself and she will learn to love you no matter what you look like.

  • Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo
  • The hit-making producers of BIG DADDY now deliver DEUCE BIGALOW: MALE GIGOLO -- a hilarious, must-see smash starring the always outrageous Rob Schneider (THE HOT CHICK, THE ANIMAL) in his funniest role yet! A professional fish tank cleaner, Deuce (Schneider) finds himself in desperate need of cash to quickly repair the damage he's done to a client's luxurious Malibu apartment! Then the fun really takes off when Deuce decides the only way out of this jam is to switch to the world's oldest profession -- and offer his services to ladies everywhere as a lover for hire! A wild and raunchy comedy that always aims to please -- you won't be able to resist this sidesplitting laugh riot!

    There are parts of it that are genuinely cute, and given the level of raunch, it's almost innocent.

    Sure, it's a non-stop cavalcade of tasteless jokes and crude sexual humor, but there's nothing wrong with that. I like tasteless jokes and crude sexual humor.

    Court-ordered chemical castration isn't enough -- someone needs to take away Rob Schneider's SAG card.

    The only thing that changes is the star: Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, David Spade or Rob Schneider. Other than that they're the same movie over and over again.

    Bizarre comedy of errors is surprisingly good-natured, but not that good.

    This movie is pretty stupid. If you like stupid then go, but don't say I didn't warn you. Adam Sandler fans might dig this one
