Encyclopedic overview

Directed by Dennis Dugan, the film also stars Katie Holmes and Al Pacino. It tells the story of an advertising 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 released on November 11, 2011, by Sony Pictures Releasing. The film was panned by critics, who criticized the humor and premise, although Pacino's performance received some praise.

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.
