Movie Review: Grown Ups - Never, Ever See This Film


Movie: Grown Ups
Starring: Adam Sandler, Salma Hayek, David Spade, Chris Rock, Kevin James & Rob Schneider
Director: Dennis Dugan


What would happen if you assembled a dream team of comedians and unleashed them all in the same movie? Judging from Grown Ups not much would happen at all. In this movie Adam Sandler (Lenny Feder), David Spade (Marcus Higgins), Chris Rock (Kurt McKenzie), Kevin James (Eric Lamonsoff) & Rob Schneider (Rob Hilliard) play childhood friends who are reunited after the death of their Jr. High Basketball Coach. After the funeral they spend a weekend in a cabin together with their new families. They all play characters eerily similar to their real life personas. And that's about it nothing happens in this film no drama, no conflicts and no point. All the actors are so nonchalant it's like they are not even trying to get any laughs. It's more like watching five old guys be nostalgic for an hour and half. They laugh at each others jokes but the audience doesn't. You start to get the feeling that these guys maybe just wanted to take a weekend off and hangout in the woods. There are some gags thrown in to try to make things funnier but they are half-hearted and not done well. Things like a four year old who still breast feeds, a dog who barks funny & a Grandma's bunion. In the end this movie is content merely to exist as a pat on the back to the comedians involved who are powerful enough to get this nonsense on the big screen. You can buy Grown Ups on DVD or Blu-ray from our shop.

The plot in itself is about as thin as you can get. I don't want to get into trouble on IMDb for posting spoilers but there is really nothing to spoil about this movie because there really is no plot to it.
