The Longest Yard (2005)

Where to Watch

I never saw the original, but now I have no desire to do so. In what world can Adam Sandler be seen as hot enough to be a sex symbol on a billboard or even an alcohol soaked ex-football player? The tone of The Longest Yard (2005) is uneven: at times it seems to want to seriously address abuse of prisoners, including racism, but then it goes for the knee jerk juvenile jokes. Skip it & watch The Waterboy if you want to actually laugh.
