The Longest Yard (2005) 7/10

Starring : Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Burt Reynolds, William Fichtner, James Cromwell
Director : Peter Segal
Running Time : 114 mins

Former American football star Paul "Wrecking" Crewe (Sandler) is arrested for reckless driving and faces a stiff sentence in jail, but when he is requested by prison warden Hazen (Cromwell) to be placed in his prison he discovers that he finds himself having to form a football team made up from his fellow convincts.

This is an entertaining movie with some unexpected moments as well as some good old fashioned slapstick. Adam Sandler doesn’t overshadow any of his fellow cast mates, which gives everyone else a chance to show their stuff, unfortunately the characters are a little one-dimensional with little time given to their development.
