Aroview: For persistent crimes against cinema, humour and — possibly even humanity itself — Dennis Dugan , j’accuse! A jobbing actor in Hollywood since the early ‘70s, Dugan turned to directing with the dumb comedy Problem Child in 1990 and has been specialising in fart jokes and juvenile comedy ever since. In 1996 he hitched his talent-free wagon to hot young comic Adam Sandler with Happy Gilmore and the two of them have been all-but inseparable ever since.

Big Daddy, You Don’t Mess With the Zohan, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, Grown Ups, Just Go With It and Jack and Jill are the result of their teamwork (and when he can’t work with Sandler he’ll even stoop to Rob Schneider) but the new low in their relationship is the unfeasibly lazy Grown Ups 2 which looks as if no one can be bothered to so much as keep the camera straight on the tripod. The fact that this man has a successful career in Hollywood only confirms that there truly is no God. ~ Dan Slevin
