Review of Grown Ups

A lighthearted, and often hilarious comedy film that provides consistent laughs from a great line up of actors. The weakness of this film, and a strong wekaness it is, comes from whenever the story attempts to delve into emotional depth, the goofy characters just not being convincing enough to convey the messages that the story tries to bring across, which spoils some of the fun. It's also unfortunate that a lot of the funniest jokes are reused throughout the film, so that by the second time they don't seem to be all that special. It is surprisingly the middle of this film that proves to be the best part, the start not being all that funny and the ending being pointless and far from a satisfying conclusion to an, overall, not bad film. It should make you smile, at times it made me laugh hysterically, but it really is only aimed at teenage boys and will not appeal to many other groups other than that.
