While it’s not consistently funny, and is as enamored as any other Sandler movie with making reference to its own limp running gags (including one about donkey shit), there is a certain inclusiveness that harkens back to his earlier work. Read full review

Strange as it seems, if you choose to set aside the female roles in The Ridiculous 6 reducing women to cleavage or to mute humiliation, the movie is a long, long way from the worst Sandler movie ever made. Read full review

The jokes are often juvenile and gross, unsophisticated and insensitive, but one does not wish to strike juvenility or grossness or even insensitivity outright from the comic tool kit; these just aren't all that good. Read full review

There’s just nothing to this — nothing funny, at least. It’s too long...has some bizarre violence...and is built around another inept-and-doesn’t-care-that-he-is turn by Sandler. Read full review

Without an amusing instinct in its cowboy-hatted head, this painfully protracted, puerile effort meanders about the Old West as if it were making up its nonsense on the fly. The result is a torturous genre joke that marks a new low not only for the star, but for the art of cinematic comedy. Read full review

The Ridiculous 6 is everything wrong with Hollywood for the past two decades: a circle-jerk of imbecilic white-dude humor. Read full review

To say that The Ridiculous 6 is art is to spit in the face of The Ridiculous 6, for the Ridiculous 6 transcends art in its hilarity.

This 119 minute masterpiece had be giggling like a small baby that i kidnapped and put in my basement. With this beautiful movie, which transcends all emotions and even life itself, Sandler has forever put himself on a high and might chariot soaring above bad film makers like Kubrick, Fincher and Scorsese. This movie has a single flaw, and that flaw is the lack of Kevin James as Paul Blarts great great great great great grandpa Graul Blart. With Graul Blart the Paul Blart canon would be tied with The Ridiculous 6 forever making the most perfect series of movies ever knows to man… Expand

As the movie was not pure genius, it still wasn't bad. The movie was good, there may not be a whole lot to say, but the film was free... Can we honestly complain about a free movie? The film was not bad at all.

A certain type of movie needs to exist. It's the good bad movie. Or in other words, bad movies that you end up loving.

In the first half hour of the movie, I thought I was in for another Adam Sandler bomb. But lo and behold somewhere in the middle it won me over. Sure the jokes are lowbrow and crude, but the point is what else is doing this type of humor now? Sometimes you just want to chuckle along with the good natured idiots in the film and go along for the ride. By the end you realize that the writing is not half bad and the plot ties itself up nice and tidy. That's more than can be said for some major blockbuster films out there!

Good job Sandler and crew for pulling off what I predict will be a cult classic in several years. It's good to see some of the old faces. Plus there's surprise cameos. Vanilla Ice is actually pretty funny. Just grab a beer, fire up a joint, put grin on your face, expect crude jokes and have fun!

And to all the "real critics" out there on their mountain of hubris, too "proud" to do anything but dismiss this flick, well, have fun being a grumpy ass!… Expand

This movie was awful. I can't say too much good about it. I suppose the script was coherent enough, and it at least felt like a movie. That's about the only good thing I can really say about the movie.

The movie was supposed to be a parody of westerns, but it was not funny. Racism was a big part of the script, but I know that for whatever reason a lot of people are going to just dismiss that as "SJW" nonsense, and the racism has been pointed out enough times that it doesn't need another mention by me. I think everyone knows that part.

Even if you're willing to dismiss that on the grounds of it being "liberal" or "SJW" crap, you can't deny the movie was insanely boring. This movie did not deserve to be 2 hours long. It was not that good, nor was it good at all. Gross out comedy and being intentionally offensive are just lazy humor. That's all this movie was: Pure laziness.

I know some people want to claim that this movie pokes fun at racism. Maybe it did try that, but if it did it failed and became racist itself. If you want to watch a good film that parodies the western genre while actually making fun of racism then watch "Blazing Saddles."… Expand

This movie is so bad, even Adam Sandler is getting bored with this one. It's lazy, poorly written, and devoid of any entertainment whatsoever. It's like they weren't even trying.

The movie is ridiculous alright, just not in a good way. Inserting himself als an omnipotent savior brings out the worst in his acting and screenwriting.
I really tried to finish it, but it was so bad, I had to stop halfway through.
