I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Best movie ever!

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The AnimalThe best animal attribute to have would be pooping outdoors without toilet paper.Surprisingly, that is only one of the beastly abilities bestowed on the cop in this comedy.Born loser Marvin (Rob Schneider) cannot pass the obstacle course it takes to become a police officer until an experimental doctor (Michael Caton) enhances him with parts from the wild kingdom. Enabled with incredible powers, Marvin finally gets that shield and is able to impress a dog-walker (Colleen Haskell).But when random animal attacks occur around town, Marvin suspects that he is leading a double life as a predator.One of the worst Rob Schneider movies of the early-2000s, The Animal's lowbrow laughs and goofball special effects play to the puerile. While the only thing more atrociousness then the jokes is then-reality star Haskell's performance, rivalled only by Schneider's.Moreover, why couldn't he have been imbued with the suicidal tendencies of a lemming?Red Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

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.

The Animal (2001)5 word summary Loser cop gets animal powerNow I don't wanna sit here and lie and say this is a good movie, because its not, and it deserves the low ratings that it has. However, it does have some cheap fun laughs such as the reverse racism, and sniffing peoples butts, and John C McGinley. And if you're young like I was when I first saw it, or drunk you probably will find some humor in it. If you are looking for a good movie look elsewhere. If you like Rob Schneider films such as Deuce Bigalow, The Hot Chick, Benchwarmers, then most likely you will enjoy this film, if you hated those films you will definitely hate this one because it is probably the worst out of those four. So again it does have some good, cheap jokes and is humorous at times as long as you can look past the bad acting. Have a few beers and perhaps you will enjoy it. 7/10

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.
