December 30, 2011There's no doubt about it that Nicholson and Sandler have great chemistry and they are probably the best actors for a movie bearing this title. But there's a feeling that they were both put on a leash by the studio writers and restrained from doing so much more that could have be... read more

December 10, 2011Anger Management had the potential of being a great comedy. Instead, the film fails and is virtually laugh free and really is more boring than entertaining. Adam Sandler is definitely not funny here, and he uses the one trick he's got up his sleeve, which is getting tiresome. His... read more

December 4, 2011Sandler cynics beware, this is one Romantic Comedy I love and have watched over and over, perhaps because I am the "implosive person".
A frustrating story that worsens before it gets better, you just have to love to hate Nicholson in this role, a person can only take so much!!! -
August 27, 2011Anger Management is a funny movie, mainly because of Nicholson, but the problem is the film is predictable and boring. The plot is ver long and boring, and it wasn't great. The cast was good, Jack Nicholson is amazingly funny, and Adam Sandler is well... Adam Sandler. The come... read more

August 25, 2011Although this movie had its moments, I did not think it was all that funny. Jack Nicholson began to grate on me after awhile which was surprising as I don't think that has ever happened before and Adam Sandler just needs to do a movie where he doesn't do the ridiculous angry man ... read more

July 16, 2011Dr. Buddy Rydell: Dave, there are two kinds of angry people in this world: explosive and implosive. Explosive, which is the most common, is the type of individual you see screaming at a grocery store cashier for not taking his coupon. Implosive, the least common, is the cashier a... read more

November 19, 2010While I don't like Adam Sandler or most running gags and editing errors this movie had, I could not resist Jack Nicholson and John Totorro. They were a laugh riot! I still give this a low rating because as a whole, this movie was bad and just not all that funny.

January 17, 2010It's not a terrible movie, it's just rather mediocre. If it weren't for Jack Nicholson's completely eccentric character, it would've been worthless. It's funny, just not good enough to consider that there was any real deep thought put into the script or characters. It seemed like... read more

Has hell frozen over? Not only is Jack Nicholson starring in a buddy movie alongside Adam Sandler, but of the two, Sandler's low-key approach is preferable. Full Review

Peter Rainer, New York Magazine
This is the kind of coarse comedy where a fart serves as a punch line. Full Review

Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine
Even a longtime Adamophobe has to admit that Sandler is an agreeable presence here, and that the film has some funny filigree work to offset the oppressive schematics. Full Review

Rex Reed, New York Observer
Embarrassed and clueless, Mr. Nicholson is clearly slumming. As a goopy, doofus pet-clothes designer whose only talent is nostril-wiggling, Mr. Sandler comes closer to playing his real self. Full Review

J. Hoberman, Village Voice
The free-associational lurch of the enigmatic Nicholson 12-step program is set to a familiar backbeat of juvenile gross-out and homosexual panic; what's truly illogical is the blithe conflation of ang... Full Review

Todd McCarthy, Variety
A couple of brakes-off set pieces to the side, the antics here are strained, graceless and tiresomely crude, the sorts of things audiences feel they're supposed to laugh at rather than well-developed ... Full Review

Mike Clark, USA Today
Flimsy follow-through or not, the teaming still works, and so, at times, does the premise. Full Review
