When was saving silverman made

Perhaps he should have reflected that director Dennis Dugan has directed two Adam Sandler movies both better than this. It is time for him to strike out in a new direction; the announcement that he will appear in " American Pie 2 " does not promise that. Amanda Peet and Amanda Detmer do no harm, although Peet is too nice to play a woman this mean. Lee Ermey is on a planet of his own. As for Neil Diamond, "Saving Silverman" is his first appearance in a fiction film since " The Jazz Singer " , and one can only marvel that he waited 20 years to appear in a second film, and found one even worse than his first one.

It is not especially smart, and it is not especially lovable. It is, however, laugh-out-loud funny at times, and, that, for a comedy, may be all that matters. The Neil Diamond-infused, solidly cast film is very rough around the edges, but it is a lot of fun. Revolving around a young man whose friends grow to despise his overbearing girlfriend, the film follows as those friends resort to a series of outlandish measures to end the relationship. Absurd, sometimes dark, and completely ridiculous, the film story supplies plenty of opportunities for physical comedy and verbal barbs.
