Typical Adam but don't expect too much!

Adam Sandler portrays Dave Buznick, a man with his emotions under tight control, even when it comes to committing to his long-term girlfriend (Marisa Tomei). An altercation on a plane finds Dave in court and he is sent by the judge to Dr. Buddy Rydell for 20 hours of anger management classes. Dr.Rydell has unorthodox techniques including making his patients sing 'I Feel Pretty' which creeps Dave out, but he must deal with Rydell or else he will be sent to jail. For his part, Jack Nicholson is as manic as ever and gives every impression of being certifiably insane. Adam Sandler plays the repressed role well, and Jack Nicolson is a ridiculously good conman. Also in this movie are Woody Harrelson as a cross-dresser, Heather Graham as a former patient of Rydell's, John C. Reilly as Buznik's childhood nemesis, and Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani of NYC as himself.
