I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The Animal (2001): Dir: Luke Greenfield / Cast: Rob Schnieder, Colleen Haskell, John C. McGinley, Cloris Leachman, Ed Asner: Nauseous images of a grown man sniffing someone's butt in search of drugs. Film addresses communication urges from within with sick references to bestiality. Rob Schneider plays a cop in training who is in an accident where a rock crushes his car. The effect here look about as hideous as a roll of toilet paper bouncing off the car. A scientist patches him up using animal parts, which gives him unusual tendencies. Colleen Haskell plays an animal shelter employee impressed with his ability to allow birds to feed out of his gaping mouth. Concludes with dead bodies and a horrid plot twist. Schneider is alarmingly gross as dinner for two involves urination under the table. He also licks his crotch and seduces a goat. Haskell makes little impression despite the one key revelation she is involved in. John C. McGinley plays a rival cop investigating the murders and will get his just desserts in typical disgusting fashion. Finally there is Cloris Leachman appearing to remind us that she is far better than this. Directed by Luke Greenfield who must have thought he had an idea to present but like any potential idea it needs a followup screenplay that rises above formula as oppose to the gutter. Unfortunately it turned disgustingly savage and should be fed to lions. Score: 2 / 10

The concept of this movie is simple: a man named Marvin wants to become a full-time police officer and takes an emergency call that unintentionally leads him to his presumed demise that later turns out to have been prevented by a doctor that converts him into a bizarre experiment where he hosts various personality traits of different animals. So that means regardless what Marvin does in his daily lifestyle, it will both come with advantages and consequences based on his actions that comes from himself and the animals.That both could have been very humorous and functional only if the entire film was written, directed, and portrayed differently. This is another film distributed by Happy Madison that has failed again to bring the most memorable cast member of Saturday Night Live to a comedy presentation that had the chance to become an insanely original classic. Instead, it's a very disjointed and annoyingly patient 'comedy' that doesn't take more risks than time to make the audience feel illuminated by the ridiculous concept.Rob Schneider sadly will always be that one animal everyone tortures. This animal should have been put down for the sake of not salting his wounds.

This was just plain funny and very entertaining throughout the goofy 83 minutes. Crude? Yes, at times, but what modern-day comedy isn't lately? The PG-13 rating is a joke. With all the sexual stuff in here, "R" is more appropriate.Some of that sleazy stuff, to be honest, was pretty funny, though and there isn't much profanity. Rob Schneider, as "Marvin," lays his goofy Deuce Bigelow-type character on us, trying to get the pretty girl "Rianna" (Colleen Haskell). I really thought this would be a stupid film but Schneider's animal imitations are hilarious and, overall, this a very fast-moving, silly-but-lots of laughs film.
