Adam Sandler’s ‘Jack and Jill’ Sweeps the Razzies

Hack the planet! I still laugh hysterically every time I watch this movie. It was given to the masses in a time when a lot of people still barely touched computers, those that were "online" thought AOL was THE Internet. I can understand the producer's dilemma. How do you make sitting in front of a computer typing at command prompt sexy? Valiant effort...I guess? One of my favorite jabs at this movie is their choice to use 1960's era computers (I kid you not, he's "hacking" on something close to a commodore 64) and combined with graphics and interface technology that we don't even have in today's world. PS There is a brief shot of Angelina Jolie's boobs, I'm serious. I will wait here why you go looking for it.

Apparently the popularity of Matt LeBlanc's character on FRIENDS wasn't nearly enough to save this movie. I'm not sure it could have either. This bad boy recieved a "0%" from Rotten Tomatoes and was nominated for several Razzie categories. Worst Picture, Worst Screenplay (David M. Evans), and Worst Screen Couple (for LeBlanc and Ed the mechanical chimp), losing all of those categories to Striptease starring Demi Moore.

This was the first feature film to star Arnold Schwarzenegger. This movie kind of got lost in obscurity, and for good reason. It took a while for Arnold to be credited with it too. Not surprising considering that they a) changed his name to Arnold Strong Mr. Universe and b) thanks to his heavy Austrian accent the original version of the film ended up dubbing over all of his dialogue. A later version restored his actual audio, but the dubbed version is probably the "best". This movie, last I checked, was on Netflix. Check it out for a cheap laugh, or to make yourself feel better about your own work.
