Was ‘Grown Ups’ good enough for a sequel? I don’t get the draw to Adam Sandler and his movies. My husband caught a sneak peek of ‘That’s My Boy’ this week, and said it was AWFUL. But what do we expect from Sandler? He’s the same guy who brought us ‘Jack & Jill’ (which I would only watch if it were a choice between that and death).
I was actually just talking about him last night (and how horrible ‘That’s My Boy’ was) and we concluded that the only good Adam Sandler movies are the ones where he’s playing a serious character. For example, I loved ‘Funny People’ and ‘Punch-drunk Love’.
I’ll give you Sandler-fans one, I did like ‘Just Go With It’… that was pretty cute.
Wow, what a cast! Vince Vaughn, Jennifer Connelly, Winona Ryder, Kevin James, Channing Tatum and Queen Latifah all star in this new comedy from Ron Howard!
Since college, confirmed bachelor Ronny (Vaughn) and happily married Nick (James) have been through thick and thin. Now partners in an auto design firm, the two pals are vying to land a dream project that would launch their company. With Ronny’s girlfriend, Beth (Connelly), and Nick’s wife, Geneva (Ryder), by their sides, they’re unbeatable. But Ronny’s world is turned upside down when he inadvertently sees Geneva out with another man and makes it his mission to get answers. As the amateur investigation dissolves his world into comic mayhem, he learns that Nick has a few secrets of his own. Now, with the clock ticking and pressure mounting on the biggest presentation of their careers, Ronny must decide how and when he will reveal the truth to his best friend.
