Adam Sandler and Kevin James star as best friends and fellow firefighters Chuck and Larry, the pride of their Brooklyn fire station. Chuck owes Larry for saving his life. Larry calls in that favor big-time by asking Chuck to pose as his "domestic partner" so his kids will get his pension.

But when a pen-pushing bureaucrat (Steve Buscemi) becomes suspicious, the two straight tough-guys must stumble through an outrageous charade as love-struck newlyweds! Jessica Biel, Ving Rhames, and Dan Aykroyd co-star in this hilarious comedy. If you don't care too much for Adam Sandler's comedies, then I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry is absolutely not the film to convert you. But if you are one of the many who continually enjoys his films, then his latest is well worth checking out.

I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry sees Sandler as Chuck and Kevin James as Larry, a pair of firefighters who become domestic partners to help protect the latter's children. It perhaps goes without saying that this is a reluctant union, and Sandler's character goes to great lengths to demonstrate the fact that he's heterosexual. Yet if you can tolerate the cheapness of much of the material, it's hard not to find yourself chuckling at it.

The film boasts a supporting cast including the likes of Jessica Biel (as a conveniently attractive lawyer), Ving Rhames, and Steve Buscemi, and does manage to consistently serve up the laughs. It also finds room to squeeze in Dan Aykroyd and Rob Schneider as well. And while there?s nothing particularly clever about I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, it very much does what it offers on the proverbial tin. It's Sandler, in a fish out of water situation, reacting against it. Switch your brain and sensitivities off, and you may well have a ball with it. --Jon Foster
