The title character of Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, played by Saturday Night Live alumnus and Adam Sandler sidekick Rob Schneider, is a miserable fish-tank cleaner who stumbles onto a new and different lifestyle when he looks after the fish of a high-priced male prostitute (Oded Fehr from The Mummy). Deuce teams up with a man-pimp (Eddie Griffin), gets harassed by a crazed cop (William Forsythe), and of course falls in love with a cute client (Arija Bareikis). The nonsensical plot is festooned with gags about wet T-shirts, foul-mouthed senior citizens, flatulence, Tourette's syndrome, narcolepsy, and just about everything else you might imagine. More surprising is that, by and large, the movie works. It's a combination of bad taste and goodheartedness, similar to There's Something About Mary, which Deuce Bigalow is clearly emulating. It's not the pat "people should learn to accept themselves for who they are" theme or the formulaic happy ending; it's that the movie understands that sex is not the same thing as happiness or contentment. For all its crassness, Deuce Bigalow actually treats its characters as people, and the result is silly, obnoxious, and enjoyable. --Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com
Product Description

I saw this film in the cinema and I don't think that I stopped laughing! Remember he will do anything for $10 and that's negotiable! I thoroughly enjoyed it, it deals with a number of issues in a light-hearted manner, and even makes the effort to have a go at the Matrix. Buy This Film Now!

HALL OF FAME
Format:VHS Tape
a pleasant suprise as i was entirely prepared to hate this movie, thankfully its all played fairly low-key and theres not too much reliance on bodily function and anatomy jokes aimed at the adolescent american market, in fact this movie almost seems family orientated unbelievably, The gigolo work being carried out is certainly not of the sexual variety and Deuce manages to please his clientele in a very clothes-on manner.
Dont expect too much and the film will reward with a few laughs and a pleasnt enough waste of time.

The reviewer has got it spot on - it's not what you think. It is funny in all the right places and has a serious side to it. I am still creasing up just thinking about some of the scenes!
You start laughing from the first frame - the fish tank scene where he is cleaning the window! And the gigolo with the big house is so funny! And the pimp too! Oh, there is too much to mention! Rob Schneider's character is very loveable. I am buying a copy of this on DVD. It's worth it!
