Billy Madison
“Shampoo is better! I go on first and clean the hair! Conditioner is better! I leave the hair silky and smooth! Oh, really, fool? Really! [Sees the gold swan on edge of tub.] Stop looking at me, swan!”-Adam Sandler (Billy Madison) “Billy Madison” is one of the greatest movies ever produced. The whole movie is great. From the recurring mirage of a penguin, to the resurrection of a clown.
In this movie a 28-year-old screw up tries to regain the rights to his fathers large chain of hotels. He makes a deal with his father to go back to every grade up to the end of high school, with each grade only taking him 2 weeks to pass out of.
Just the concept of a 28-year-old man going to class with kindergartners every day is hilarious. He spends his first weeks doing things like drawing ducks and making snowmen out of cotton balls.
The villain in this story is a man named Eric, who tries to ruin Billy’s chances of taking over his fathers company. If Billy doesn’t succeed in passing all of the grades, then Eric is the man that will take over instead of Billy.
