I finally watched this movie expecting it to be terrible. It was surprisingly good at times. The biggest thing for me is seeing so many actors who are now gone. It kind of gets you in the feels for nostalgic reasons. Just understand you will need to turn your brain off a bit to think fully enjoy it.

I love the part where he fights for the rights of victims of domestic violence in prison.

I just recently stumbled upon this movie and am I glad I did! They just don't make movies like this anymore. I'd compare it to Dumb & Dumber with a mix of Roadhouse. If you don't like either one of those movies don't watch this one... And btw why are you even reading this review!!!!?

I wasted two valuable hours of my life on Big Stan -- don't make the same mistake.

This may be the first mainstream Hollywood comedy where the anus drives the movie -- and I don't mean that as a double entendre.

Rated: 1.5/5

At the Movies (Australia)

2008 has, with one or two exceptions, been a diabolical year for American comedy, and Big Stan hits rock bottom.

Prison rape comedy is offensive and a waste of time.

Rated: 1/5

DVDTalk.com

A prison comedy that boldly confronts the "hilarity" of male rape, Big Stan isn't as offensive as it imagines itself to be, and nowhere near as silly as I'm sure Rob Schneider hoped for. It's a just a forgettable, unfunny waste of time.

Rated: D

If you're not a fan, then this won't do much to convert you, unless you, like Schneider, have a dubious obsession with anal rape jokes.
