Filmography: Problem Child, Brain Donors, Happy Gilmore, Beverly Hills Ninja, Big Daddy, Saving Silverman, National Security, The Benchwarmers, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, You Dont Mess With the Zohan, Grown Ups, Just Go With It, Jack and Jill Dennis Dugan is what would happen if you got your well-intentioned dad in to direct a bunch of Hollywood movies. He knows nothing about comedy in actuality, but he thinks he does, and that's enough to get him by. Some people might think Dugan has done some real good over the course of his career, because he directed
Big Daddy and
Happy Gilmore, which I'll admit are far more watchable than the monstrosities that he phones in to work nowadays. But don't beat down on your old dad for doing his best. He didn't mean for
Grown Ups to be so bad -
it was the script, I tell you! And then there's the curious case of
Jack and Jill, which...
well, it could have been funny! I wanted to meet Al Pacino! I guess I just messed up, didn't I? Yeah, you've messed up a lot Dad, and one day Adam Sandler is going to hold you responsible for slowly ruining his career, movie by movie. Can you live with that, dad? I sure hope so.
Upcoming Movie: Grown Ups 2
