This turns into a lead role quarterbacking a crew of inmates in a game against a team of prison guards. Aided by incarcerated ex-NFL coach Nate Scarborough (Burt Reynolds), Crewe and his team must overcome not only the bloodthirstiness of the opposition, but also the corrupt officials trying to fix the game against them.

Critics Consensus

This Yard has some laughs but missing from this remake is the edginess of the original.

Time Out

Everyone involved with this remake claims the utmost respect for Robert Aldrich's raucously funny 1974 original. So you have to wonder why they crapped all over it, starting with the casting.

Empire Magazine

Homophobia, sexism, racism, ageism and OJ-ism pound against genre clich (C)s as weathered as Reynolds' skin, bludgeoning you into submission.

Rated: 2/5

Adam Sandler, of course, is no Burt Reynolds. But then neither is Burt Reynolds these days, judging by his performance as the team's crusty mentor.

Populated by one-note stereotypes and reliant on one-dimensional action.

This remake of the 1974 sports comedy-drama The Longest Yard is hardly a classic. But then again, neither was the original Burt Reynolds-starring version.

The Longest Yard has no reason to exist because of 2 reasons, 1. What does American football have to do with being in jail & 2. Why would you cast Hip Hop artists like Nelly & D12 in a Happy Madison film? And also shame on this movie for making a reference to Forest Gump, this isn't just the worst film of Happy Madison Productions it's also a contender for one of the worst of 2005 full stop.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

I'll start by admitting that I had no interest in this movie at all. I only saw it because I was dragged. Was it as bad as I thought? Not at all. It was way better than I expected. We all know those mindless comedies with barely a plot, cheap dialogue, and jokes galore. I thought this was one of them. I was wrong. This remake had a pretty good storyline and a few laughable jokes and moments. I usually don't laugh out loud at movies, but I did find myself doing so three or four times here. So that takes care of the Funniness Factor. The story is easy to get involved in--you want to see the prisoners kick the guards' butts in football. It is a well-played story and fun to watch. Sandler is not one of my favorite actors, but I have to give him his props because I am starting to see that he usually stars in movies that are at least remotely funny and that have a pretty decent plot. But the main thing is that his characters usually act the same. I would get into the slight lack of character development, but I'm sure you don't care to read about that. You only wish to know if this movie is funny or not and if it's worth watching! Well, yes, the movie has its moments and it's good to watch, especially if you like football or are a Sandler fan. This has its good kicks and it is near a touchdown in the comedy category. So if you want to have a good time and relax to some entertainment, you can watch this one =)
