10 Unlikely Movie Team-Ups You Completely Forgot Happened

10. Jack And Jill - Adam Sandler/Al Pacino

Working with Al Pacino would ordinarily be a memorable moment for any actor, but even a resume as spotty as Adam Sandler’s would be better off without this particular collaboration. Both actors have made questionable decisions, but even if they can’t forget Jack And Jill, they, and anyone who has watched it, wish that they could.

While some of Sandler’s output is unfairly maligned, the critical mauling was well deserved here. This is the comedian at his laziest, peddling crass gags, mostly about bodily functions, bringing little to the table other than the notion that dressing as an overweight woman is inherently funny. He can’t even raise his game for a legend like Pacino

Which is all the more disappointing given Pacino’s absolute dedication to the picture. Playing himself, he hurls himself into the role and provides pretty much all of the movie’s best moments (which is really not saying much). Al’s comedy side is rarely celebrated, but his penchant for big acting is catered for.e

Pacino earns every penny of his presumably sizeable pay packet, but the film is a disaster. The stars have recovered, with each having recent career highlights - perhaps now we can put this whole mess behind us.
