Story Synopsis

Television’s Saturday Night Live writer/comedian, Adam Sandler stars as Billy Madison in an outrageously ridiculous comedy about the heir to his father’s (McGavin) billion dollar chain of Madison Hotels. Billy is a spoiled rotten, lazy moron who lives merely to enjoy himself. Figuring he can loaf until his father retires, Billy is stunned to learn that Mr. Madison is not leaving him the business. The only thing in Billy’s way is his lack of education. He gets inspired and bets his father that he can return to school and pass grades 1 through 12 in just twenty-four weeks—and if he fails, the company’s VP weasel gets to take over.
