"Adam Sandler's latest comedy is shallow, scatological, lazy, crass and brazenly commercial. That's not news. But "Jack and Jill" may also mark something more significant: the moment when cinematic cross-dressing officially stops being funny."
And so begins What a drag: the death of the cross-dressing movie, an excellent article from Steve Rose in The Guardian.
I have always loathed Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Eddie Murphy and their ilk, and the unfunny "comedies" they appear to prefer starring in, and Mr Rose gives them a deserved kicking.
Well done, that man!
