A silly romantic comedy that barely kept my interest; Peter Gallagher and John Turtorro were stars of movie, what is with all the anger & violence from Sandler?

There are some of the funniest scenes ever produced in a movie. Don't take it to serious or compare to anything else.

I thought it was a good comedy. It does get generic and corny ,like every Sandler film, but it was still well enough overall for a watch. I enjoyed it.

Mr. Deeds was incredibly funny, enjoyable, sweet, and very entertaining, with Adam Sandler better perfomance, Ryder mixed perfomance, and the others were great, overall Mr. Deeds doesn't have that Masterpiece material at all but it willMr. Deeds was incredibly funny, enjoyable, sweet, and very entertaining, with Adam Sandler better perfomance, Ryder mixed perfomance, and the others were great, overall Mr. Deeds doesn't have that Masterpiece material at all but it will guarantee you a laugh and a good time watching it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just ridiculously bad, but the type of thing a kindergarten would probably like. Never been a fan of the 'Sandler' formula. Expand

Out of all the Adam Sandler movies I've seen, this one's my favorite. Barely any sexual references, yet funny throughout the entire movie!

I like Adam Sandler but his role as Mr. Deeds lacks his ambition and this is one of his worst films I've seen. It's a predictable that's unpleasant in too many scenes of humor for such a comedy that tries to be light.

This wasn't as bad as the critics are saying! I mean, sure it's an Adam Sandler styled movie, but it's not Grown Ups 2 or Billy Madison for Gods sake!

Mr. Deeds has lots comedy a bit over the years, but I really enjoy the characters, many of these characters are only in the movie to use as jokes. Certainly not the best movie in the world but it was worth watching.

Apparently Adam Sandler dedicated this remake of the 1936 classic to his late grandmother. Now I can admire that, really I can, especially when the 1936 classic was her favourite film. But someone needs to tell Sandler that good intentionsApparently Adam Sandler dedicated this remake of the 1936 classic to his late grandmother. Now I can admire that, really I can, especially when the 1936 classic was her favourite film. But someone needs to tell Sandler that good intentions don't always make a good film. The ambition is there, but the film just isn't that great, not as pointless or as awful as the remakes to Psycho or the Wicker Man(which was unintentionally hilarious) I admit but sorry this wasn't good. There are one or two good things, such as the soundtrack, striking scenery and John Tuturro's turn as the Spanish butler. However, the script is cloying and lacking in wit, the direction is uninspired and the story is too saccharine and simplistic. Then in terms of acting, Adam Sandler gives one of his more unlikeable performances(I liked him in The Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates and Spanglish though found him irritating here and in Click) and Winona Ryder while she looks lovely forgets her acting lessons. Overall, has its good points but it isn't great. 4/10 Bethany Cox Expand

I love Adam Sandler movies. This one is another favorite. A hick guy finds out he just inherited millions. Very funny movie, sneaky sneaky sir! Never underestimate the sneakiness.

C'mon this movie wasn't that bad...I strongly disagree with this review! It's a comedy, and not all of them have such a great plot, that's pretty much the point!!

Quite good movie! Worth watching if you're looking for something funny. If you liked Adam Sandler's other films, you'll probably love this.

This is the only movie I have actually liked Adam Sandler in, so that's pretty self-explanitory.

Adam Sandler rocks, everyone is jealous of how funny he is so they give him a low rating, no1 will be a funnier comedian than him.

I wouldn't bother seeking this one out but if there's nothing else on TV it might be worth a watch.

Contrary to popular belief, Deeds isn't terrible, there's just no reason to seek it out. Its a film one would watch to pass time. Don't expect anything amazing.

Seeing all the bad reviews, I was expecting something terrible. Instead I found the goofy laughs entertaining, but surprisingly Sandler wasn't delivering many of them.

Unlike his earlier films, Sandler shows us the warm side of his personality. He shows us that he is a talented comedian when given the correct material.

I mean we can all say that Mr. Deeds has some dumb stuff and funny ones too and a Coen Brothers cast. Mr. Deeds is surprisingly a good movie.

I love it. I grew up with it. It's probably my most rewatched movie. I always have a great time with it. Longfellow Deeds is such a nice dude.
