The Longest Yard Reviews |
It has some amusing scenes, a few good football tackles, and Michael Irvin proves his can hold his own in an acting role. While it does have a few shots for the highlights reel, there's more that fits into the "doesn't cut it" category... [read review] 
...Had "The Longest Yard" been either a little dumber or a little smarter, it might have overcome its underdeveloped game plan and underwritten lead character. But Adam Sandler (also the film's producer) and Peter Segal fumbled the ball. [read review] 
This is the kind of very generic and stupid comedy that could’ve opened in the dumping ground of early spring with any other comedians out there; it’s lucky to open in summer when moviegoers will definitely see it. [read review] C --Lee Tistaert (Lee's Movie Info)
...Indeed after my immersion in the films of Cannes, I can hardly bring myself to return to "The Longest Yard" at all, since it represents such a limited idea of what a movie can be and what movies are for. [read review]  --Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times)
The vacuous filmmakers add five or six gay cheerleaders for the cons. These scenes are not funny, so they fit in well with the rest of the film, which flunks both the watch test and the laugh test. [read review] 5/10 --Tony Medley (TonyMedley.com)
Yard has its share of pigskin thrills and Sandler silliness, but ultimately serves as another example of a remake that fails to score. [read review] 
"The Longest Yard" remake offers nothing over the original. It's just another bit of Hollywood recycling for a new market. [read review] C,C
...seems to be one of those Sandler efforts that occupy a middle ground between goofy comedy and quasi-realistic drama. [read review] C+
There are a few humorous moments in this film and the classic lines are still there... [read review]  --Brian Milinsky (Tailslate.net)
... is a silly, unrealistic, yet comfortably entertaining movie. [read review] 7.5/10 --Brendan Cullin (EmpireMovies.com)
This version of The Longest Yard is for jarheads.... [read review]  --SARAH CHAUNCEY (Reel.com)
