Former Saturday Night Live (SNL) funnyman Rob Schneider stars in this film as Deuce Bigalow. Deuce is a simple man. He likes fish and hot women and works cleaning fish tanks. When Deuce accidentally breaks the $6,000 tank he is supposed to clean, he's got a week to come up with the dough to replace the aquarium. So he becomes a gigolo, selling his man-bitch services to a variety of women who suffer from a variety of different physical afflictions ranging from Tourette's Syndrome to severe obesity. The sight gags and sophomoric ideas in Deuce Bigalow are good for a couple of laughs, but calling this film anything above average would be quite a stretch. Considering this film as one long SNL sketch will give you the most accurate representation of the material at hand.
