A pathetic little con artist loses his cool when he finds out he’s heading to the big house for fraud. He ends up hiring this mysterious kung fu guru—who basically turns him into a fighting machine just so he can survive the inmates looking to jump him or... well, ASSA

IMDb

Trailer

Rob Schneider plays this small-time crook sentenced to three years in prison, and David Carradine plays The Master, teaching him enough moves to actually survive and dodge getting repeatedly assaulted in the yard. The whole movie is pretty much built on the fear of prison violence. In jail, obviously 😁

👍 🤷 🤣

I honestly find it impossible to sit through a single Rob Schneider movie without my mind immediately drifting toward those absolutely brilliant South Park clips 🙂

A surgical breakdown of his career 😁 Which movies though? 🤣 What kills me most is how Sylvester Stallone actually cast him as Judge Dredd 😁 Talk about crazy casting 🤣 Schneider 😂 You just can't take him seriously—even when you want to. But honestly? This is easily his best work. Nothing beats this level of absurdity 🤷 hard

Rob Schneider is hands down one of the most brilliant and controversial comedians working today. Look, we can argue about his delivery all day long, but you can't deny how relevant and provocative his movies actually are. He doesn't just follow those safe, predictable Hollywood paths. He isn't looking for easy laughs; instead, he keeps us on our toes by diving headfirst into taboo subjects. I’ll admit, I don't always remember the exact titles, but that movie about the animals? Absolute genius—a hilarious take on cloning and genetic manipulation. And that one where a guy swaps bodies with a teenage girl? It’s a fantastic look at a young, beautiful woman dealing with the psyche of a middle-aged man. As far as I know, no other movie has tackled that concept, and certainly none as funny yet strangely insightful as his. Then there's his latest, Big Stan, which tackles something truly heavy: male sexual assault. Set within a prison, it captures the constant, underlying fear an average inmate faces regarding assault—a reality in prisons that movies almost never address with any real grit. Once again, Rob takes a serious, controversial issue and finds the comedy in it. Honestly, hats off to him. He could have easily followed in the footsteps of his buddy Adam Sandler, churning out mindless comedies about lazy rich people, deadbeat single dads, or just plain fake scenarios. Or maybe he could have tried to make some cinematic masterpiece like "The Water Carrier." But no. Rob chooses the uncertain path, much like that film I almost forgot about, "The Male Gigolo." That was a brilliant piece that introduced us to the world of male prostitution—a subject rarely touched by Oscar-winning actors or directors. Yet, this underrated, genius comedian consistently goes after these taboo themes.

Look, nobody said he wasn't a genius. Maybe not a total genius 😂 but he’s cool—and I mean cool, not just "chill"—because chill has never actually been cool 😉 and leave Sandler out of this. The guy is Jewish 😁 Nothing beats the smell of fresh peaches 😁
