Big Stan is a comedy about a con artist who finally gets what’s coming to him. Staring Rob Schneider from ‘Deuce Bigalow’, Stan is a fraudster who finds himself being sent to prison.
The judge allows, in so many words, Stan six months to get his affairs in order before starting his three year prison sentence. Stan decides to use these six months to gain strength by learning martial arts in preparation for his stint in prison, so he won’t be the victim of prison rape.
This ends up being the main focus of the film, and sadly makes it the reason this film failed. The film tries to use gay prison jokes over and over again, but it is just not funny. There is nothing smart about this film. It’s a basic story, which tries to make fun of prison life. To Rob’s credit he has tried to bring a serious part into the film, but it fails as comedy and drama do not mix, unless done well.
Rob Schneider fans will enjoy the typical Rob humour, but if you are not a fan of Rob then steer clear. If you are in for a no brainer, none thinking film, then this is your ticket.
