They could have focused more on the similarities of best friends and a gay couple. Instead, they just try to offend everyone in sight and then act sorry at the end.

Reviews for I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry
You know a movie is going to be bad when Rob Schneider shows up as a Chinese wedding chapel minister. No, come to think of it, you know a movie is going to be bad when Rob Schneider shows up at all

Above all the idiotic shenanigans and brutally offensive conversation, Chuck & Larry is flat-out a badly made movie.
01/14/08
As complex as a garden-variety sitcom...
12/01/07
One of the year's most stunningly feeble offerings.
11/27/07
This film is stupid, but it has a reckless bravery... and I found myself giggling more than once.

Homosexuality for dummies. That is, until Ving Rhames steals everybody else's thunder as the most macho guy in the firehouse and on the down low, who decides it's time to finally come out in the communal shower.

Even before the 'gay' plot kicks in, the mix of bloated 'heroic' action with toilet humor and plugs for Hooters is unbearable...

In essence Dennis Duggan's film is patronising and a little degrading.
09/21/07
Adam Sandler adds here to his lengthening charge sheet as the most repellent "entertainer" on the planet.

I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is a comedy of masquerade that Shakespeare might have written if he were pea-brained and talentless and had been commissioned to script an Adam Sandler movie.
09/21/07
My faith in a beneficent God, never strong, has been shattered by news that Alexander Payne contributed to the screenplay for this horrific new Adam Sandler vehicle.
09/21/07
Pronouncing Adam Sandler’s latest comedy anything but a disaster of Chernobyl-sized proportions is beyond me.
09/21/07
The film-makers behind I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry would probably claim a message of tolerance and personal growth, but this woeful Adam Sandler vehicle is as nasty a piece of sniggering homophobia as I have seen in a long time.
09/21/07
It's not just homosexuals who will be outraged by this crass farce.
09/21/07
Veering between kneejerk homophobia and PC proselytising for gay rights – often in the same scene – Dennis Dugan’s comedy is an unhappy union.
09/21/07
The closing message claims to promote tolerance, but this remains a lads' comedy: it's all about sniggering at pansies and peeking up girls' skirts. And even that market deserves something funnier.
09/21/07
Not so much gay as bloody miserable.
09/21/07
With ribald and stale jokes at odds with the slender social message, this wedding piece crashes and burns amid its own hypocrisy.
