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 Spletzer2) Description
Adam Sandler is Little Nicky, a shy and awkward guy with a penchant for heavy metal music and two bullies for older brothers. And another thing .... Little Nicky is the son of the Devil and lives in Hell. Also stars Patricia Arquette and Harvey Keitel.

When I received my packages I was a little scared upon what damage may have occured to my newly bought DVD's. The dvd's and thier playback were completely supperb. I don't have a single complaint and I would be happy to buy again through Amazon.5) That has to be the most disturbing thing I've ever seen... [Rating: 5 out of 5]
And I'm not just talking about the giant horny bird. This movie's more fun than a swarm of angry bees!Seriously though, if you're a Sandler fan, this is definitely a weird oe, but a must have. And this version is considerably better than the horribly edited and censored version they show on TV (rarely at that). The TV version has some of the best scenes all but cut out by the American puritanical censoring machine.So, if you wish to see Little Nicky in all its underworld-ly gory (er, glory), you definitely need this disc. You want this disc! You are going to buy this disc, or I'll send Little Nicky's bigger, older, blacker brother by a different mother to mind-wrastle with you... Now, release the good!The extra features are okay. Nothing to write home about, as I recall, though the main menu can be amusing at times. If you're bored. Picture is fine, audio is fine, and the fact that you get to see the movie in all its uncensored glory is excellent.
