A cute movie ruined by gratuitous product placement

Rating: 3/10 (12 September 2006)

Sandler & Spade humor is not for everyone. The bathroom humor can be a bit overdone, and some of the schticks get repetitive. That being said, this movie provided me with some enjoyable laughs and a good hearted storyline.
The only thing I found truly distasteful in this picture was the excessiveness of product shilling to be found. Large parts of the film are essentially a commodity vehicle for a certain soft drinker maker and its subsidiary corporations.
The playful parable of principle prevailing over persecution hits a home run. However, the profuse portion of pandering product promotion is just foul.
