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.

Rated: 0.5/5

Prison rape comedy is offensive and a waste of time.

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

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

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.
