Tamra Davis Movie BILLY MADISON : A spoiled rich boy Billy Madison (Adam Sandler) must
repeat grades 1 thru 12 and pass in order for him to take over his fathers vast Hotel Empire!
Hellacious Movies Movie Review : A crazy lighthearted romp reliving 1st thru 12th grade thru the eyes
of Billy Madison (Adam Sandler), a lazy, no good degenerate! It has its moments of mild snorts and
giggles! But it is not a Laugh Out Loud kind of movie! It is silly, mildly amusing and pure Adam Sandler!
I think Adam Sandlers biggest hinderance to receiving 5 Star ratings for his movies is that he aims for
PG-13 ratings, targeting a larger audience is great but some how I cannot justify 13 year olds seeing a
teacher take off a piece of clothing for every correct answer Billy Madison gives! Its just not kosher!
If he stopped targeting children with dumbed down adult humor and tweaked his potty humor towards
the child within every adult I think he would find his true niche!
