Jack & Jill


Just imagine…
What could terrify Jack Sadelstein(Adam Sandler), a successful advertising executive the most? Do not let your imagination run too far! It’s his twin sister, Jill’s (also played by Adam) annual visit on the Thanksgiving! Jill’s Stupor & belligerence is exasperating to jack.
Jack thinks the only way to get Jill on track is to find her, her special someone! Meanwhile Jack’s boss wants him to convince Al-Pachino to shoot a commercial for dunkin’ donuts! Al meets Jill & is fascinated by her simplicity! Jill falls for a Mexican guy! Then ensues at least 10mins. of farting & indigestion jokes! Amidst the “romantic triangle” & over the board stupidity, it seems the movie’s saving grace is 2min sp. Appearance of Johnny Depp & the real twins that talk about themselves, prior to & post, the story of Jack & Jill! Bad script wastes the actor’s potential & a strong premise that could have led to an excellent comedy flick!
If you have watched “the grown-ups” & expect similar EQ(entertainment Quotient), then you are bound to be disappointed!

This movie did help me come up with a new rhyme:
Jack and Jill went up the hill,
To fetch a script of farter,
God knows why they made the movie,
It’s such a huge disaster!

Watch it with a can of cola, a tub of popcorn & a nursery rhyme book, after all you might find the idea of reading Jack & Jill better than watching it!
