Wait, I don't understand. Who added such nasty tags to this movie without even seeing it??? What's up with a "No one can talk me into seeing this movie, no matter what" position? Sure, there are plenty of movies I'm not interested in, but it seems a little silly to act as if that's anything other than blinders. It's like saying "I hate honeycomb tripe. I've never eaten it, but I know I hate it." Fine, I suppose, but not worth much as a critical position.
In any case, I'm clearly in the minority here, but I have to say, I think DB:MG is great. Even the title makes me crack up. What other kind of Gigolo is there, besides a Male one. Hell, the rhyme scheme cracks me up: "We need a name that will rhyme with 'Gigolo'...Bigalow!" That's fantastic. The movie itself was remarkably enjoyable. The humor is purile, but that's true of _LOTS_ of great films. Eddie Griffin is excellent. the image of him sitting in a hot tub eating ice cream is indelible! It's so wrong on so many levels. Rob Schneider is not generally a good actor, and I don't generally like SNL-Alum movies (though there are some..."Tommy Boy", for instance), but here he's perfect. In the end I think it's also pretty touching. Maybe not in a 'great film' kind of way, but in more than a Hallmark card kind of way. If you're open to the possibility that broad, cartoonish characters can be effective in film (and lord knows if you're not, that cuts out a good 80% of all movies), the Deuce character is genuinely appealing.
I have a sinking feeling about the sequel, but I may end up watching it.
