Grown ups

I was at friend’s house over the thanks giving day holiday weekend helping with his holiday decorations outside. We got into a conversation about movies my favorite topic. He said he had a copy of the comedy grownups staring Adam Sandler you want to borrow it. I said definitely, how you could go wrong with an Adam Sandler movie. I know there are people saying Adam Sandler is too childish not   for me .It stars Chris rock, Kevin James, David spade, and Rob Schneider. It also includes the beautiful   Selma Hayek, Maria Bello and Maya Rudolph. It’s directed by Denis Dugan and runs 102 minutes.What can you say about Adam Sandler he has made some memorable movie characters? He didn’t disappoint with his latest Happy Madison project. He brought together a group of some today’s funniest comedians including Chris rock, Kevin James, David spade, and Rob Schneider. It also includes the beautiful Selma Hayek, Maria Bello and Maya Rudolph. I thought it was a good script about a bunch of old friends brought together years later by the death of their old basketball coach. They reunite after 30 years in a small  town to pay respect to their fallen coach. When they first meet they give each other razzing about how much they have changed, don’t we all do that. Chris rocks house husband life, Kevin James wife breast feeding his 4 yr old very funny scene. They try and figure out  Rob Schneider’s very older wife and beautiful daughters and  how they came out of him. The location of the movie in Massachusetts  was a great choice; the cabin they stayed in the local town had a family friendly  feeling to it.  Some of the memorable scenes were they were eating after the funeral and mari bello started breasts feeding their son.The group asked how old their son is she said 4 yrs old. Chris rock face had this look of horror and slide down the bench. The comedy in this movie is definitely Adam Sandler material. The scene at the water park in the pool defiantly fit that bill. Kevin James daughter asked while in the pool are you peeing in the pool he said no honey; she says they put a blue liquid in there to see pee. He said it’s just a myth sweetheart. They pan back the camera and all off the guys are peeing, the whole pool of people scatters. I enjoyed this movie because it had a buddy theme to it, old friends get together reminisce about the old days, talk about what there up too. There is a lot of joking around between them and their families.  Throughout the movie Adam and the guys realize it has become very hard to raise their kids the way they have been raised when they were kids. Adam sandler realizes his kids have become very spoiled brats ex: they got insulted when the nanny brought then hot chocolate that wasn’t godiva flavored. He tries to get them to realize there other things to enjoy then video games 24 7, playing outdoors getting fresh air skipping rocks on the lake where their cabin is. His other movies were mostly geared   towards guys and his sense of humor. This has a   family sense to it. You get to know the guys families as the movie goes on, and it’s more than a regular adam sandler movie you’re used to. It has a family atmosphere to it.  Everybody can enjoy this film guys, women, kid s grandparents. It was the type of movie where you can imagine you and your friends in the roles of Sandler and his buddies and their families. When you’re done watching the film you will want to call your friends and say hey let’s get together for a barbecue. I really enjoyed this movie and would   definitely  suggest buying or renting it. I give it 3 stars.
