    Jack and Jill is a 2011 American comedy film directed by Dennis Dugan from a script by Steve Koren and Adam Sandler. Released on November 11, 2011, by Columbia Pictures, the film stars Sandler in a dual role as the titular twin siblings, as well as Katie Holmes and Al Pacino. It tells the story of an advertisement executive who dreads the Thanksgiving visit of his unemployed twin sister who overstays into Hanukkah at a time when he is instructed to procure Al Pacino's appearance in an upcoming Dunkin' Donuts commercial.

    Jack and Jill was panned by critics and audiences, although Pacino's performance received some praise. Some have since considered the film to be one of the worst ever made. At the 32nd Golden Raspberry Awards, the film was nominated for a record of 12 Razzies in all ten categories. It became the first film to sweep the Razzies, winning in each category, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actor, Worst Actress and Worst Screenplay. The film's ten wins was also a record for most Razzies won by any film.

    Growing up in the Bronx, Jill Sadelstein makes repeated unsuccessful attempts to capture the attention of her gifted twin brother Jack by injuring him or repelling others from him. As an adult, Jack is a successful advertising executive who resides in Los Angeles with his wife Erin, their biological daughter Sofia, and their adoptive Hindu son Gary, who compulsively tapes various objects to his body. Conversely, Jill is unemployed and lives alone in their childhood home, which she inherited following their mother's death the previous year.

    Jill visits Jack for Thanksgiving and announces that she plans to depart at the end of Hanukkah, having an open-ended plane ticket, much to his consternation. At dinner, her obnoxious behavior embarrasses a homeless guest, Otto, as well as Erin's parents, Carter and Bitsy Simmons. Jack snaps at Jill, and she flees into the woods with her pet cockatoo Poopsie. Erin demands that Jack apologize to her, which he reluctantly does.

    Jill proceeds through a list of activities that she has planned to accomplish during her visit, including being a contestant on The Price Is Right (she receives a variety of prizes after incapacitating herself while spinning the wheel), going horseback riding (she proves to be too heavy for a pony that collapses under her weight), and touring a studio. When she answers her phone in the middle of a movie, Jack reprimands her, and she exits in tears.

    Deciding that Jill needs a romantic partner, Jack, aided by his children, encourages her to try online dating. She is initially unsuccessful, until Jack alters her profile and posts it on Craigslist, garnering more than 100 responses. A person nicknamed "Funbucket" meets her at a high-end restaurant, but a few minutes into their evening, he retreats into the men's restroom and hides there until she leaves. The staff of Jack's company, Sunny & Sadelstein, throw him a birthday party. Jill attends, but disgraces herself along with Jack and his colleagues, resulting in her ejection.

    Meanwhile, Jack tries to cast Al Pacino in a Dunkin' Donuts commercial for their newest menu item, the Dunkaccino. At a Lakers game, Pacino ignores Jack but becomes infatuated with Jill. He gives her his phone number and invites her to his home, where she accidentally destroys his Oscar statuette. Uninterested in him, she promptly departs. Jack's Mexican gardener Felipe, also smitten with her, introduces her to his family at their annual fiesta. She immediately connects with everyone; however, after trying Mexican food for the first time, she suffers a severe case of diarrhea.

    Pacino agrees to work on the Dunkaccino advertisement on the condition that he has another date with Jill, so Jack invites her to accompany him and his family on a cruise. She insists on bringing Poopsie, despite the cruise line's strict policy against pets. At sea, Jill and Poopsie irritate everybody onboard. When Jill repeatedly rebuffs Pacino, Jack disguises himself as her and flirts with him on her behalf. Suspecting that her invitation was only to convince Pacino to do the advertisement, she phones Jack and hears Pacino in the background. Dejected, she returns home. Arriving in the Bronx on New Year's Eve, Jill discovers that the bank has foreclosed on her home after she discarded numerous bills that she mistook for junk mail.

    In 2024, Al Pacino elaborated on his decision to join the cast of the film, stating, "It came at a time in my life that I needed it, because it was after I found out I had no more money. My accountant was in prison, and I needed something quickly. So I took [Jack and Jill]."

    On the day of the premiere, comedians such as Jake Fogelnest launched a parody promotional account on Twitter bashing the film; garnering hundreds of followers and its posts retweeted by figures such as Aziz Ansari, Paul Scheer and Alan Sepinwall. It was taken down by Twitter that evening due to a complaint from a Sony executive.

    Critics from The Daily Beast, The Austin Chronicle and Time declared Jack and Jill to be the worst Sandler film. Critique that were noted issues in other Sandler films were present, and even worsened, in Jack and Jill. Common criticisms were targeted toward the crude humor, product placement, celebrity cameos, and a sentimental ending that contradicts the film's mostly mean-spirited tone.

    The A.V. Club's Scott Tobias critiqued Sandler's lack of passion, describing most scenes with the actor "waiting around for somebody to feed him a line". Time contributor Mary Pols described a joke about Jack's obsessed fear of anti-semitism as a punch line with no joke.

    Peter Travers of Rolling Stone also argued, "Al Pacino said something great. After he looks at himself in the commercial, he says, 'Burn this! Nobody must ever see this!' That's my review of Jack and Jill."

    Andrew Barker of Variety said that the film's "general stupidity, careless direction and reliance on a single-joke premise that was never really funny to begin with are only the most obvious of its problems".
