Adam Sandler’s “Jack and Jill” Sweeps Razzies
Published at
Karl Larsen/FilmMagic(SANTA MONICA, California) — Adam Sandler earned a very dubious distinction Sunday night at the Razzie Awards in Santa Monica, California.
Sandler’s cross-dressing comedy Jack and Jill swept all 10 categories at the ceremony, which annually honors the worst in film over the previous year. It was the first time in the 32-year history of the Razzies that one movie won all of the awards.
Jack and Jill was named worst picture, and its entire cast — especially Sandler and co-star Al Pacino — were singled out for their acting in the film.
To make matters worse for Sandler, another of his 2011 comedies, Just Go With It, shared two of the awards: worst actor for Sandler, and worst director for Dennis Dugan, who also helmed Jack and Jill.
The Razzies are typically held the night before the Oscars, but it was rescheduled this year for April Fool’s Day.
