Thanksgiving is usually a happy time, but ad executive Jack (Adam Sandler) dreads the holiday because his twin sister, Jill (also Sandler), makes her annual visit. When Jack and his sister get off on the wrong foot, the only way to make it right is to invite her to stay through Hanukkah. But, when actor Al Pacino (Al Pacino), whom Jack desperately needs to star in a commercial, takes a shine to Jill, Jack may be forced to extend his sister's visit even longer.

Critics Consensus

Although it features an inexplicably committed performance from Al Pacino, Jack and Jill is impossible to recommend on any level whatsoever.

It could easily have been a single-joke poster shot in a deleted scene from Funny People. Only it is less funny and less interesting.

Dennis Dugan's film mixes slapstick and jokes about diarrhoea.

Jack and Jill is painfully tedious and sophomoric.

Sandler manages to create one of the most obnoxious and unfunny characters to go with this obnoxious and unfunny film.

Sandler is hit-and-miss here, with a definite miss virtually every time he shows up as Jill.

I just signed up to rotten tomatoes 🍅 to say how much I hate this movie 3 of us just watched and made it all the way to the end and this is each person’s reaction of how they felt Brain raped Violated in every way imaginable ! I think I have a brain injury now after watching this to end. Do your self a favor, think deeply about who you truly hate and send them a copy of this film….. you win! 🏆

Worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I literally could not finish and anyone saying otherwise should not be trusted as a movie critic.

We mere mortals weren't supposed to witness such elegant beauty, yet - artisan Adam Sandler provides us with what can only be described as such. Masterful, satirical comedy on the kinship between brothers and sisters. Visionary filmmaking that tackles themes of loss, love, and what it means to be human. Phenomenon camerawork, acting, and the story.....oh the story.....it was like it was written by the gods themselves. 5 out of 5, any less would be heresy.
