Product Description

 
Director Peter Segal (50 FIRST DATES, ANGER MANAGEMENT) and comedian Adam Sandler are at it again in a fun remake of the 1974 classic, THE LONGEST YARD. In the role of Paul "Wrecking" Crewe, first immortalized by Burt Reynolds (who appears here as Nate Scarborough), Sandler plays an ex-football star whose career ended amidst allegations of point shaving. Fed up, he drunkenly steals his unfriendly wife's (an uncredited Courtney Cox) luxury car and drives it into a multi-car pileup. This lands Crewe in a cruel Texas state penitentiary. His only respite comes from Warden Hazen (James Cromwell) who wants Crewe to help lead his well-equipped prison-guard football team to the league championship. Crewe timorously agrees, suggesting the creation of an opposing team of convicts to the give the guards an easy tune-up before the season. To the ragtag inmates, this is the chance they've been waiting for, and they hustle to get their team together so they can exact some revenge on the harassing guards.

You gotta protect your McWallet

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: This movie is not for everybody. If you hate racial and gender jokes, require a plot, then this definitely is not the film for you.
Review: Adam Sandler's hardcore prison debut in The Longest Yard puts a few extra pounds on him as he buff's up to revive and remakes Robert Aldrich's 1974 movie bringing the original star, Burt Reynolds back to life, only this time Sandler's character...

Fourth And Long

Date of Review:  May 30, 2005
The Bottom Line: Check out the original version, too - or see it again.
Review: To paraphrase fictional baseball player Chico Escuela, football has been very, very bad to Paul Crewe. Crewe (Adam Sandler), who was once an NFL MVP, has found himself banned from the league for five years because of gambling allegations. Even...

The Prisoners vs. The Pigs in a Football Showdown

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a generally good remake, but those who have seen the 1974 original will probably feel a sense of letdown.
Review: Getting sent to prison can be an eye- opening experience. Not only is one's liberty forfeited, there is also the possibility of physical attack by guards and fellow inmates; sexual assault by other prisoners; and a host of other forgettable events...
