Longest Yard

Cons: The good guy dies. Some racist talk; comes from the 1974 version as well.

The Bottom Line: This is a very entertaining movie, but not at all for children. Sandler does sports movies right!

Review: I'm not a purist, but I sometimes play one - to the annoyance of those around me. I don't like drivers who can't operate a turn-signal. I don't like signs that are misspelled. I don't like remakes, especially when they take a classic and hand it back ...
