- Anger Management -

Rotten tomatoes’ summary: After a misunderstanding aboard an airplane that escalates out of control, the mild-mannered Dave Buznik (Adam Sandler) is ordered by Judge Daniels (Lynne Thigpen) to attend anger management sessions run by Doctor Buddy Rydell (Jack Nicholson), which are filled with highly eccentric and volatile men and women. Buddy’s unorthodox approach to therapy is confrontational and abrasive and Dave is bewildered by it. Buddy himself has no inner demons since he acts out at every opportunity and that includes making lewd comments about Dave’s girlfriend Linda (Marisa Tomei) and goading Dave into confronting every slight, past or present, head-on. Buddy finally goes too far and Dave must decide whether to crawl back into his shell or stand up for himself.

Quickie review:
4/5 stars

           
This movie isn’t one that would be known as intellectual, nor would any of the characters in the movie. The majority of the humor is based on crude and silly things, such as the word “goosfraba,” a word that helps to calm an angry person. At times I found myself as annoyed with Doctor Buddy as Dave appears to be, which I don’t personally enjoy when I watch movies. However, there were several parts that were hilarious, which make up entirely for annoyances. The ending is satisfactory, because the main conflict is resolved, but doesn’t turn out cheesy thanks to the last scene.
Recommended: For most anyone who enjoys comedy, providing they don’t mind silly, and sometimes a bit childish, humor.

This is my first review. Tell me what you think. (Contact Information)
