Just had a quick flick through the old reviews done on this film and I came across one saying it's: Sandler's worst movie.
Seriously?! I mean, out of all the terrible films Adam Sandler has done, people even have the cheek to call this very average film "bad". There's a difference between average and bad. And being since I've seen most of Sandler's films, even including Going Overboard that features in the bottom IMDb 250, then I think I have more of an idea of what's to be called "the worst".
I have to admit though, I just thought it was going to be so bad that I'd feel physically ill, I was wrong to a certain degree. And yes, it's billions and billions of miles away from being "brilliant", but it's not Sandler's worst movie. Yes, it's sentimental and mawkish in parts, but I believe some people are semi-ashamed that they didn't find a Sandler movie THAT bad.
Yes, it's kind of the same thing, but just 'better', Adama Sandler plays the 30 year old slob, as usual and then learn that he needs to change his way, blah blah, yeah. But some aspects of the film, were alright, really. It's watchable for sure, not amazing or overly funny, but it's far from Sandler's worst film. And if you're still not entirely convinced by my words, then watch Going Overboard, then tell me what you think.
So, to all the people thinking they're so clever for saying that they disliked a Sandler movie, just be quite and stop watching his films. They can't be that bad if people who claim to say they're rubbish, still go an see them as soon as he has a new film out. That just doesn't make sense, does it?
