Billy Madison Movie Review

                   This is one of my favorite movies to be honest. One of the reasons is because it was filmed here in my hometown here and it is the home of the owner of General Motors McLaughlin. Anyways another post for another day to talk about it but the movie is one of my favorite movies out of the Adam Sandler movies and there is a pile of them on my list with  Happy Gilmore being up there too. Adam Sandler is a great actor, hilarious and in the movie he played a role of a son to his father who runs a hotel and has to pass every grade in 2 weeks and he will get the company. Which another guy, Eric tries to ruin it as he hits high school. Now one more thing about the house they filmed in, it's right across from the High School I attended from 2001 - 2006. Which yes I have been inside the house for a tour before and is well known. 

                  I have some good memories in the movie one of them is that crazy penguin scene at the very start of the movie. Also when he said T-t-t-today Junior! Another amazing moment in the movie. One other moment is when he was writing a word with the letter "Z" and spelled rurruto or something like that. I know when I saw the fountains I said instantly, yup that's the estate I was thinking of and its so easy to notice it too, the front façade of the house or as I said the actual fountains on there. Either way I would give this movie a 10 out of 10, forget that 20 out of 10 as it is too funny of a movie and I really enjoyed the movie and if you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it as its an awesome hilarious movie. Anyways I will talk to you all on tomorrow's blog post.
