Release Dates:
- 11th November 2011 (USA) -
- 6th January 2012 (UK) -
Director: Dennis Dugan
Stars: Adam Sandler, Katie Holmes and Al Pacino
Jack and Jill follows a successful advertising executive and loving family man, Jack Sadelstein (Sandler) who dreads one event every year- the Thanksgiving visit of his identical twin sister Jill (Sandler). This time the event is made worse when his sister decides to stay for longer and refuses to leave turning Jack's normally tranquil life on its head.
This is Sandler sticking to what he knows best and might be better than some of his more recent attempts to make me laugh (I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, You Don't Mess with the Zohan, Grown Ups) but will still be a long way short of anything enjoyable. Hopefully we will one day see the Sandler of old but not this time. And why Pacino has jumped into this boat is anyone's guess. Perhaps a career in comedy awaits him just around the corner?
