Movie Reviews

Is this classed as a film? How can it be classed as a film?

Grown Ups was alright in my opinion. I tend to enjoy almost any film that is thrown in my direction for some reason or another. Grown Ups had a few laughs which put the label of 'Alright' on it. Below average, but watchable.

Grown Ups 2, however, is the worst film I have ever watched. Seriously, if you can find a film that is more terrible than Grown Ups 2, please enlighten me. I mean, was this wrote by a five year old? Who can tell. The humour is astoundingly bad, there simply isn't a plot or a moral to the story and the entire film will just leave you cringing. I know one or two people who would like this, but those people also have the worst sense of humour that I have ever encountered.

How this was released, I do not know. It is simply a terrible film and I cannot find one good aspect about it. And to think Adam Sandler was once a good actor for a few years.

1/10. Never gave that to a film before. At least, not that I can remember.

One of Sandler's worst

The first 'Grown Ups' film was a rather mediocre at best film, gave it a maybe generous 4/10. It had a few decent things, that sadly were outweighed by the many moments that were lazy and unfunny.

Its sequel however is simply ghastly, personally am honestly struggling to find anything good about it. Not many sequels are as good as the original, although there are exceptions like 'Godfather Part 2', 'Aliens', 'Empire Strikes Back' and 'Terminator 2' that come very close to being even better (actually 'Empire Strikes Back' is the best of the entire 'Star Wars' saga). But 'Grown Ups 2' which looks like no effort was put into it is down there with the worst sequels in existence (not as bad as 'Superbabies Baby Geniuses 2', 'Home Alone 4' and 'Neverending Story 3', but close).

Credit is due, as far as Adam Sandler films go it is not as bad as 'Jack and Jill', one of those cases where almost anything is better than it. It is however down there with Sandler's all-time worst. For the record not everything that Sandler has done is bad, some of his 90s and early 2000s comedies are good, the 'Hotel Transylvania' films while with their issues were surprisingly good and he proved with 'Punch Drunk Love' and 'Reign Over Me' that he is capable of giving a good performance with great material which those two films have, but he has done too many misfires. Some have questioned, why watch it in the first place if you didn't like the first film and don't always like Sandler(an attitude that actually really annoys me)? The answer is easy. Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade have proved when they have strong material that they can be good, funny and likable actors.

Anyway, talking about 'Grown Ups 2' as a film, the film looks cheap with direct-to-video production values. Scenery's alright and some of the costumes are nice in the party scene, but wasted by flat garish photography, lack of continuity and less than smooth editing. The music is at best forgettable, very generic and not very dynamic with what's going on. Dennis Dugan's direction is not very noticeable, fails to make the story cohesive and seems to rush through everything.

That 'Grown Ups 2' is not funny, completely laughter-free in fact, is a huge part of the problem. The dialogue is childish, embarrassingly juvenile and crass while the gags and set pieces are incredibly tasteless and lumbering, most of the film saw this reviewer cringing through the childish slapstick and excessive bathroom humour. You know there's something wrong when the most memorable cameo is Taylor Lautner, and despite being the one actor to be enjoying himself the scene is one of the biggest examples of bad taste.

Lack of story is also a major problem, almost non-existent in fact and just an excuse to string along incoherently the film's gags and the four leads to indulge in their antics with ill-at ease chemistry. The only real glimpse of one is with David Spade, and the film doesn't really delve into it properly. The first 'Grown Ups' story was not much special, but there was more of a resemblance of one. The characters are both annoying and bland, the men are too immature to be taken seriously or care for and the female leads are eye candy and little else. Acting doesn't help either.

Sandler gives one of his laziest, phoned-in and irritating performances, James is at his most embarrassingly juvenile and annoying, Rock looks embarrassed and ill at ease and Spade is very little better. Apart from Lautner, none of the supporting characters or cameos shine, disadvantaged by worthless material.

Overall, a complete mess of a film and one of Sandler's worst of a hit-and-miss career. Also one of the worst films personally seen all year (along with 'Norm of the North' all year in fact, know it's a 2013 release but didn't see it until this year). 1/10 Bethany Cox

Moving back home

This film has Adam Sandler and Selma Hayek moving back to the old home town where he returned in the first Grown Ups movie for a reunion. The place is kind of a piece of suburbia where people just seem to want to play. And Sandler wants to be back with buds David Spade, Kevin James, and Chris Rock.

There's no real plot to this film just a series of outrageous incidents one right after another concluding with a titanic brawl between a bunch of snotty college kids and our overaged heroes.

Fans of these folks, especially Sandler should be happy.
