If you've ever had a yen to relive the third grade, this must be the next best thing.

Billy Madison is a textbook example of a half-decent idea that never got developed beyond the "lying around drinking beer and making jokes with your buddy" stage.

The latest entry in the American cinema's investigation of dumb-and-dumber heroes.

Where Dumb And Dumber was clever enough to play dumb to amuse the child in all of us, this suffers under the illusion that just having a central character blissfully unaware of the need for a brain is actually a funny concept.

Even on its own dim-bulb terms, this runt of a comedy never locates its central joke: Is it that Billy the child-man doofus doesn't fit in with his pint-size peers or that he fits in all too well?

Those unfamiliar with Sandler's antics may...begin to find him annoying sometime between the appearance of the Universal logo and the end of the opening credits.

Jul 27, 2013Though its jokes are of stupidity and grade-school humor, Billy Madison is a decent comedy from the creation of Adam Sandler. The film is immature and has memorable quotes/scenes that die-hard Sandler fans will remember. 4/5Eugene B Super Reviewer

Mar 14, 2012[img]http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images/user/icons/icon13.gif[/img] One of the earliest Adam Sandler comedy vehicles is the highly over rated Billy Madison. To put it simple, it's a childish comedy with the occasional morsel of charm and a few good laughs. It's at best, mildly amusing because the film gets sillier at every turn rather than getting any funnier. I prefer Happy Gilmore because the character suited Sandler better and the film itself was a little less moronic, smarter, had a lot of memorable scenes and was more ambitious. Billy Madison at times, because of it's stupidity, is just uncomfortable to watch.Directors C Super Reviewer

Feb 12, 2012Talking about bad movie... Sandler was being overly stereotypical, gosh I hated the lisp and redneck tone. It was not even funny, probably due to the bad script. The jokes were randomly thrown in. It's just not good enoughSylvester K Super Reviewer
