Tommy 'White Knife' Stockburn (Adam Sandler) was raised by Indians. In town, he battles the left-eye gang who all scooped out their right eyes. He needs $50k to save his biological father robber Frank (Nick Nolte). He decides to steal the money from the dishonorable. Along the way, he recruits five others who all turn out to also be Frank's sons. They are half-Mexican Ramon (Rob Schneider) with a burro, dim-witted Lil' Pete (Taylor Lautner),incomprehensible mountain man Herm (Jorge Garcia),drunken Danny (Luke Wilson) who can hold his breath, and pianist Chico (Terry Crews) who sheepishly reveals that he's half-black.

This is all very ridiculous coming from Adam Sandler and his gang. Most of it is not funny. This is a failed attempt at Blazing Saddles. It has some outlandish ideas. Some of them are actually good at spoofing westerns. The left-eye gang is nice. Doubleday is pretty funny but it doesn't all work that well. It's flat for the most part. The six leads are simply not that funny.

The one thing I defend Sandler for is that this is not racist against native culture. There are racist portrayals but they are done to mock racism. Schneider's Ramon is an over-the-top stereotype but he is one of the heroes. I think Sandler has worn out his welcome with the critics and everyone is all too ready to trash him. This is definitely not 'Jack and Jill'.

Adam Sandler as part of his Netflix deal dusts off some of his older, rejected scripts and slashes down on the budget. No overseas filming for Sandler here mainly it is the studio back lot and on location in New Mexico.

Sandler plays a white man raised by Indians when his mother was murdered when he was a child. He has learned all sorts of crazy fighting skills and is due to get married soon to a beautiful girl at the reservation.

However his long lost father (Nick Nolte) tracks him down and tells him that he is dying and has fortune stashed away somewhere. It turns out that Nolte is a notorious outlaw and robber and he is soon tracked down and taken by his old gang that he has double crossed.

Sandler is on the hunt to retrieve him and on his search he finds out that his father had children from many other women. These siblings make up the Ridiculous 6, apart from Sandler (of course) these brothers tend to have some issues. Such as stupidity, more stupidity and even more stupidity.

The film is Blazing Saddles meets The Magnificent Seven. Add in some Monty Python and Wizard of Oz and you get a rough idea what this film tries to be.

As a comedy it cannot hold a candle to Blazing Saddles even though there is a lot of absurd humour. A donkey that craps like a fire- hose, a one eyed gang, a man with a strong neck which gives the term gallows humour a new twist and a rapping Mark Twain.

There is a strong story which is inspired by the likes of John Wayne westerns such as The Sons of Katie Elder. You sense their maybe some loose plot threads but in fact it was all rather predictable once they all met up with their father.

I felt the mish mash of different genres and styles was clumsy at times. It was not too funny and 20 minutes too long. It could had been a sharper and more funnier film at 90 minutes.

What on earth is wrong with some people? To what standard do they hold movies? Political correctness is taking over the world and people can no longer just kick back and have a good laugh at some corny, but very amusing, jokes and visual humour.

I admit it: I am an Adam Sandler fan. There, I said it. Recently, he's been a bit off-form, but this movie marks a return to form. It has a great cast, with all the old Sandler buddies popping up and we get some great cameos from other stars of film and music.

The jokes are mostly big hits. The scenery is stunning. The music rolls along nicely. John Turturro almost steals the movie with his turn as Abner Doubleday. His scenes are just hilarious, especially for fans of baseball (I'll say no more on that to avoid a spoiler!). Lautner sends himself up hilariously. Rob Schneider and his burro are excellent. Terry Crews, Luke Wilson and Jorge Garcia are also excellent. They form the Ridiculous 6.

Will Forte, Steve Zahn, Danny Trejo, Nick Nolte and the there baddies play their roles hilariously. Blake Shelton's Wyatt Earp, along with Jon Lovitz, David Spade and Vanilla Ice form a crazy poker crew.

Seriously, do not bother reading the reviews or paying any attention to the score here (4.9 as i write this),just watch the movie. You'll have a great laugh. I only hope Netflix commissions a sequel, because I want more of the Ridiculous 6 and burro!
