Rating: 2.5/4 --
Just another Sandler movie, nothing more, nothing less.

Sandler's only saving grace with Mr. Deeds may be that the majority of his fans are too young to know of, or just don't care about, Frank Capra or movie masterpieces...

Behind The Lens
Rating: 2/5 --
There's a price to pay for the guilty pleasure Steven Brill's film affords -- a relentless process of dumbing down that tells the audience it's cool to be a doofus.

...Sandler's actually pretty good as Longfellow Deeds....Everyone's going to like some of MR. DEEDS...
Total Film
The star and his numbskull cronies piss on Capra's grave with acrid insincerity.

Time Out
Rating: 2/4 --
This is a remake which will vaguely satisfy the Sandler faithful and have Capra fans gritting their teeth.
Palo Alto Weekly
Rating: 2/5 --
Sandler barely expends any energy trotting out the "average dude who shakes up stodgy high society" schtick, and director Steven Brill and scripter Tim Herlihy follow lazy suit.

Product Description:
Longfellow Deeds (Adam Sandler) is content to run his pizzeria in the cozy New Hampshire hamlet of Mandrake Falls. His only further desire is to someday see one of his corny rhymes printed in a greeting card. Deeds is awarded much more when he inherits the $40 billion empire of a media tycoon, a distant relative. He is lured to New York City by unscrupulous partners of the deceased where he is preyed upon by greedy stockholders. He also makes ample fodder for tabloid journalists, notably reporter Babe Bennett (Winona Ryder) who poses as a school nurse from Iowa to win Deed's heart and expose him as an idiot to her viewership. Against her will and her own sleazy principles, Babe falls for the charming naivety of Deeds, whose fortune is in jeopardy.
Adam Sandler's man-child persona stands in for Gary Cooper in this remake of the 1936 MR. DEEDS GOES TO TOWN. Sandler and longtime collaborator Tim Herlihy have molded the Frank Capra romantic comedy into a perfect vehicle for its star and a love letter to New York City. Jared Harris as a tabloid TV host and John Turturro as an omnipresent Spanish butler shine in supporting roles.
