Default "Grown-Ups" is not for

grown-ups, assembling an all-star comedic cast does not by any means insure the desired result. Perhaps it is my sense of humor, but this movie just didn't at any point provide even a hint of a laugh. My 21 year old daughter shared the same opinion; very poorly written; we expected much more from Sandler and this all-star cast?
Worst movie I've seen in a good long time!
My rating: Boo "we want a refund"

Some of the Adam Sandler movies are quite amusing. This one though I should wait for the DVD.

My husband and I thought it was hilarious. Funny in a "silly" way, but I guess that's what were in the mood for that night. Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it. I could never be a movie critic - I guess I'm "easy" when it comes to movies.

I agree with you Suzy. We were in a goofey mood when we went to see it. In a way I guess I kind of related to some of the characters. I guess my life was poorly written...but it has been fun!

My wife and I enjoyed it too. I can't believe anyone couldn't have had at least a chuckle when Kevin James swung on the rope into the tree.
