JACK AND JILL

Jack Sadelstein is an ad executive who lives in LA with his wife and two kids. He is not looking forward to the visit of his twin sister, as she bullied him growing up. Jack is upset when in his opinion Jill ruins Thanksgiving dinner on November 24, 2011 [5:47 to 16:52] by being obnoxious. Meanwhile Jack’s best client wants him to get Al Pacino to appear in their new ad campaign. Jill announces she is going to stay until the end of Hanukkah and do various items on her bucket list. Jill signs up for online dating, but after Jack alters her profile she gets over 100 responses. However, on her first date, the man hides in the bathroom, leaving Jill feeling depressed. Jack takes her to a basketball game where they meet Pacino, who falls for Jill. Jack’s friends throw the siblings a birthday party. Jill and Pacino go on a date, but she resists his advances and leaves. Jack’s gardener, Felipe takes Jill to his family’s picnic where Jill has a wonderful time. So she won’t be alone Jack reluctantly invites Jill to join his family on a cruise they are taking. Pacino says he will do the ad if Jill will go on a date with him.  Jack disguises himself as Jill and goes on the date. Jill's suspicion that Jack invited her on the cruise to get Pacino to do the ad is apparently confirmed and she returns to New York. Jack flies to New York and makes up with Jill. Pacino shows up and proclaims his love, but Jill turns him down again.   Felipe then says he loves Jill and they hug. Pacino does the ad, but doesn’t like it and tells Jack to destroy all the copies.

Some people say this is one of the worst movies of all time. It’s not the best movie ever made, but it’s not one of the worst either. It’s really just too much of a good thing.
