The Ridiculous 6 Reviews
When it comes to its underlying racial message, "The Ridiculous Six" still grates, and there are obvious moments when it appears to be punching down almost without realizing it.

"The Ridiculous 6 is everything wrong with Hollywood for the past two decades."
| Nov 3, 2016
It's a lazy pastiche of westerns and western spoofs, replete with lazy, racist jokes that can't just be waved away with a waft of the irony card. Woeful.

With the lazy, misshapen "The Ridiculous 6," Adam Sandler robs his new Netflix benefactors blind.
| Original Score: D- | Dec 18, 2015
Peer through this dopey haze long enough, and you can't fail to notice the cavalier racial attitudes, the endlessly pliable women; you'd have every right to be outraged, were it not now par for the Sandler course.

Thanks for nothing, Netflix.

You can watch The Ridiculous 6 whenever you'd like from the comfort of your own home. Lucky you.

"Why bother?" Sandler and his collaborators seem to be asking over the course of a very long two hours. And streaming viewers will hopefully respond in kind.

The jokes are often juvenile and gross, unsophisticated and insensitive, but one does not wish to strike juvenility or grossness or even insensitivity outright from the comic tool kit; these just aren't all that good.

Defined by the insubstantial amateurishness most frequently found on low-level Vine accounts, The Ridiculous Six practically erases the memory of the A-list Adam Sandler who starred in widely beloved, reliably bankable comedies.

Stream at your peril.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 13, 2015
The good news is that this movie doesn't feature many instances of Sandler making half-assed schoolyard taunts passed off as jokes. The bad news is that freeing himself of the joke-telling burden doesn't seem to cheer him up.
| Original Score: C | Dec 12, 2015
At its worst, "The Ridiculous 6" plays the Donald Trump card of sneering at political correctness in one scene, and then make amends for being a jerk in the next.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Dec 12, 2015
The scenery ain't bad but the laughs are tumbleweed-sparse in "The Ridiculous 6," a Western sendup so lazy and aimless, it barely qualifies as parody.
| Dec 12, 2015
It's like someone put ideas for Western-themed sketch comedy on a board and then Sandler threw darts at it to determine its order. The film has no flow, no rhythm, and absolutely no reason to be 119 minutes.
