Billy Madison 12

One of the hits that sent Adam Sandler into the stratosphere sees him play a spoiled 27-year-old rich-kid who goes back to school to prove his worth to his billionaire father. Typically boisterous stuff from comedy's own Peter Pan, co-starring Bridgette Wilson (who went on to become Mrs Pete Sampras).

Review

This American comedy is so stupid it's occasionally hilarious. Playing the 27-year-old oafish son of a millionaire, Adam Sandler finds he has to pass each (previously failed) grade in high school in two weeks if he is to take over dad's business. There are inspired moments but the wave of toilet humour might not be to all tastes.
