Editorial Review:
In Little Nicky, Adam Sandler plays the sweetest of three sons of Satan (Harvey Keitel), who's got to go to Earth and retrieve his nasty, power-hungry brothers lest they take over Hell and make it a thoroughly evil place. As with Sandler's other films, this weird premise (based oh-so-loosely on King Lear) is just an excuse to trot out a hodgepodge of comic bits and cameo performances. Admittedly, a lot of the jokes don't work (there was no need to repeat the one about shoving a pineapple up Hitler's ass), but the ones that do tend to be more memorable than the ones that don't, making for a pretty funny movie, when all is said and done. Sure, it's hard to overcome Sandler's speech impediment du jour, not to mention that romantic subplot with Patricia Arquette, but it can be done by focusing on the brilliant cameos by Regis Philbin, Reese Witherspoon, Ozzy Osbourne, and Henry Winkler (especially when he's covered with bees), as well as one of the funniest uses of a scene from De Palma's Scarface in years. Supporting Sandler throughout are two very funny heavy metal disciples and a bulldog named Beefy (voiced by Robert Smigel, the man behind Triumph the Insult Comic Dog). And, in an almost unrecognizable cameo, that's Clint Howard as the cross-dressing fetishist named "Nipples." --Andy Spletzer
Little Nicky [Region 2] Reviews:
Please tell me the dumb one is not my son! 
2009-11-26 - 4 of 5 stars for the Adam Sandler comedy movie Little Nicky. Usually I don't like Adam Sandler's work, this is an exception. Sandler plays the dorkey kid of Satan. Satan is trying to retire and leave matters to one of his three sons. Well, the two stronger sons leave ah "dad" for the real world. Satan sends Sandler to "collect" them. Alot of funny material in this movie and some really cute and funny characters. I specially enjoyed Rodney "I get no respect" Dangerfield in cameo one-liners playing Satan's dad. Lots of visual gags and odd things which are funny.
I do recommend this movie. It is easy on the brain, entertaining, funny, cute and odd all at the same time. The only thing missing is the old Benny Hill joke "honey, please tell me the two strong sons are mine, but, the dork is not." "Sorry honey, he is yours and the other two are not..." Good job from Sander!

My Review For My Little Nicky DVD Purchase 
2009-10-14 - I love it! When I opened the package, I noticed that the cover was a little worn but the DVD was in perfect shape! I watch it every week with no problems or the movie skipping or the movie pausing. It was in great shape! I love it!
Adam Sandler fan

A Total Piece of [...] 
2009-09-03 - I wish there was a way to give this toilet bowl of floating fruit a ZERO rating. I want my money back! Sandler, you LOSER! Ya hear me? I want my effing money back! GD him to Hell along with Hitler and his daily pineapple anal cleansing. My God - what a complete loser.
