He wasn't much of a man... now he's not much of an animal.
From the producers of the comedy smash Deuce Bigalow: male gigolo comes The animal, about small, wimpy Marvin (Rob Schneider), who doesn't have what it takes to fulfill his lifelong dream to be a cop. But his luck changes when he's critically injured in a car accident and a deranged scientist secretly uses animal organs to rebuild him. Energised by his new parts, Marvin leaves his weakness behind and achieves instant fame as a supercop.
Now a hero, life is going great for Marvin... until his animal instincts start taking over his body at all the wrong times. Marvin struggles to remain civilised, and be a perfect gentleman with his new love, Rianna (Colleen Haskell) in a series of hilarious situations that would drive any animal crazy.

You can do it! You can rip his balls off!
Adam Sandler and Norm Macdonald both have cameos in this movie which makes The waterboy look like a movie about a waterboy...
Hmmm...
Poor Marvin Mange, he tries so hard - as do all happy Madison heroes - to fit into society. But this time, when his dream comes true, it's still not enough. When he finally meets a girl (who could also be a beast, by the way) and they do the mushy thang, the mob of irate villagers enters, camera right, bearing torches and pitchforks.
About as original as English muffins, The animal is sure to get you wondering why you ever saw Joe dirt.
