Thanksgiving is usually a happy time, but ad executive Jack (Adam Sandler) dreads the holiday because his twin sister, Jill (also Sandler), makes her annual visit. When Jack and his sister get off on the wrong foot, the only way to make it right is to invite her to stay through Hanukkah. But, when actor Al Pacino (Al Pacino), whom Jack desperately needs to star in a commercial, takes a shine to Jill, Jack may be forced to extend his sister's visit even longer.

Critics Consensus

Although it features an inexplicably committed performance from Al Pacino, Jack and Jill is impossible to recommend on any level whatsoever.

It could easily have been a single-joke poster shot in a deleted scene from Funny People. Only it is less funny and less interesting.

Dennis Dugan's film mixes slapstick and jokes about diarrhoea.

... Due to poor character development, the audience will never see beyond Adam Sandler in a wig and dress. [Full review in Spanish]

Sandler manages to create one of the most obnoxious and unfunny characters to go with this obnoxious and unfunny film.

New Spice over Old Spice

The character development is so atrociously satire that it makes you forget you're watching a wholesome family movie that utilizes bonding with some acceptable comedy. Unfortunately, it doesn't check the latter boxes and it just turns into an Adam Sandler geek show with an Al Pacino performance that goes to waste. At least it's presentable because of Happy Madison, but not recommended. 1.4 / 4.0 | 34% Positive Score

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

I know I know, I'm a sucker for so-bad-it's-good type stuff. I can't remember the last time I've laugher out loud this much in a movie! (It could be that my wife watching me laugh so much while seeing her WTF face through the goofy jokes, could have contributed Lol) Obviously shut off your brain and enjoy the dumass humor haha

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
