Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo [2000] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
The title character of Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, played by Saturday Night Live alumnus and Adam Sandler sidekick Rob Schneider, is a miserable fish-tank cleaner who stumbles onto a new and different lifestyle when he looks after the fish of a high-priced male prostitute (Oded Fehr from The Mummy). Deuce teams up with a man-pimp (Eddie Griffin), gets harassed by a crazed cop (William Forsythe), and of course falls in love with a cute client (Arija Bareikis). The nonsensical plot is festooned with gags about wet T-shirts, foul-mouthed senior citizens, flatulence, Tourette’s syndrome, narcolepsy, and just about everything else you might imagine. More surprising is that, by and large, the movie works. It’s a combination of bad taste and goodheartedness, similar to There’s Something About Mary, which Deuce Bigalow is clearly emulating. It’s not the pat “people should learn to accept themselves for who they are” theme or the formulaic happy ending; it’s that the movie understands that sex is not the same thing as happiness or contentment. For all its crassness, Deuce Bigalow actually treats its characters as people, and the result is silly, obnoxious, and enjoyable. –Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com
Customer Review: Schneider’s best role in years
The plot follows Deuce on the journey to earn money as a male gigolo in order to pay for a tropical fish tank and its contents before the professional gigolo whose house it is returns.
This is by far one of Schneider’s funniest performances and one for the books.
Any comedy fans and fans of Adam Sandler will love this film.
Customer Review: Funny Movie
This is a movie that is full of comedy, but you really must listen in order to catch some of the jokes. If you’re easily offended, do not watch this movie! If you just looking for a funny movie full of spoofs and dirty jokes, then this is for you. There are gems here, to be sure. The basic theme, that the best kind of sexual attention is non-sexual in origin, deserves applause. And Eddie Griffin and Arija Bareikis put in utterly likable performances as Deuce’s pimp and girlfriend. Funny but appears to have been rushed through production. Here, the plot isn’t generated by Deuce Bigalow, it happens *to* him. Given that Rob Schneider wrote the film, it’s odd that he forgot to write himself a character.
