Adam Sandler’s The Longest Yard, an update of ’s Burt Reynolds-headlined classic about a motley group of incarcerated criminals who band together to beat the prison guards at football, is the latest member of this cinematic category, overflowing with so many gay-centric gags that it’s a wonder the filmmakers didn’t utilize the film. A retired quarterback is forced to lead a team of colorful fellow inmates against the guards in a game of jailhouse football.
Visual cues in the opening scene introduce an undertone of sexuality and depravity with a constant barrage of plunging necklines on monochromatically tanned female characters of negligible intellect and near absent lines. Along the way he pokes fun at the appearance of a policeman, drives while intoxicated, and endangers the lives of hundreds during a high-speed chase.
Sandler emerges without a scratch after a multiple car pileup in which the Bentley is hit by police cars from all directions. Accompanying the football players for both teams are their own cheerleading squads. The convict team cheerleaders are males dressed as females, using extremely suggestive poses and blatant talk of perverted sexual acts. Violent behavior might be expected during a football game, but the movie has extreme beatings, with the guards repeatedly thrashing the poor inmates mercilessly.
There is one fatality, somewhat orchestrated by the staff of Allenville Prison, of course. The one female Allenville State Penitentiary employee, played by Cloris Leachman , is dressed and coiffed as a stereotype of an advanced-aged lustful, if not vulgar, unnecessary employee. For some unexplained reason, a heavy-set, older man dressed in what may be best described as Kentucky-Derby-Colonel white suit, with straw hat appears in the movie as a companion to the Warden.
His only function is as yet one more opportunity for Sandler to voice one-liner insults meant to bring laughter. But therein lies the real root of the purpose of the entire minutes. Besides being filled with profanity and laced with sexual overtones, there is one common thread lacing the whole non-story together: Sandler is a star because he can make silly voices, noises, and get away with making crude, cruel, and meaningless sarcastic observations in such a way that his fans believe he is delivering humor.
In my opinion, the movie is trite, profane, lewd and highly inaccurate. No humor should come from calling someone hurtful names nor criticizing their appearance. Neither should we be about the business of promoting sexual perversion—even if only brought up as a joke. The sins that brought about the need for prisons in our nation ought not be ignored—only to celebrate the sinners with the guards—who are supposed to be righteous—portrayed as anything but good.
Adam Sandler’s The Longest Yard,
If perversion, sin, and degradation of our fellow man has become our method of entertainment, then we cannot call ourselves godly. MPA Rating : for crude and sexual humor, violence, language and drug references. Relevant Issues. In my opinion, this movie carries no redeeming qualities, and should be avoided by Christians. Negative —The film, although with genuinely funny parts, was extremely offensive.
Also, the use of profane language was rather high.
I was surprised at the film overall having achieved a PG rating instead of R. The language alone was enough to make me cringe, let alone the sexual references, vulgarity, and overall crudeness. I felt that the scenes involving video footage obtained by the prisoners intended to embarass each other was disgusting, and I felt physically sick to my stomach. Had I driven myself to the movies, I would have left about halfway through the film.
Sadly, we did not follow our spirits, but stuck with the movie only to be thoroughly sickened by the vile and repetitive gay humor. It was beyond disgusting. Positive —If you like football and have a good sense of humor. I laughed and laughed… very entertaining. Positive —A hilarious movie topping what I expected. Positive —Because I am considered a technical critic in the industry, I know that I am going to get more flack for my views on this movie.
