HE’S NOT VERY GOOD-LOOKING. BUT WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT… HE’S STILL NOT VERY GOOD-LOOKING.

Fish tank cleaner Deuce Bigalow (Rob Schneider) accidentally destroys a huge, valuable aquarium and turns to prostitution to pay for its replacement. That must be one of the stupidest plot summaries I have written. The romance is pretty useless, but Schneider is amusing as the seedy, unappealing Deuce who sees no other option but to turn himself into a “man-whore” – and turns out to be good at it. And I have to confess, portions of this silly movie do make me laugh, even though it enjoys making fun of disabled people.
