manipool I tried to watch this movie because of the cast whom I like for the most part. (Not fond of Chris Rock or Kevin James, but they're all right) At first I thought it was Hot Tub Time Machine then I thought maybe it would be like it. That movie that was at least interesting and funny. I watched it up until the moment when they're talking about leaving and going to Milan and then I had to stop and find something else to watch...it was very sad. Just an exploration in excess.

yolomcswaging Grown ups is a great comedy movie for any age and for families.Lets start off with the writing of this movie. For that I have to say that it is quite good. the plot flows well and no scene seemed out of place and everything worked really well together. For some characters there story arcs either went too quickly and were rushed or seemed incomplete and patchy but you wont pick up on it during your first viewing. I only did after my second viewing because I was so intrigued by the movie.The comedy of this movie was very funny and I found myself laughing all the way through it. The mix of jokes for kids and adults blended well and neither seemed to unbalance it. The combination of adult and kid jokes also make it so that parents watching it with there kids will be able to enjoy this movie just as much as the kids will. At times there did seem to be one to many fat jokes in it though.The acting of this movie was incredible good as well. There was only a very, very few times when the acting was only slightly off which I am very appreciative of. Adam Sandler and the rest of the cast deliver good character interaction and also just generally good acting. There didn't seem to be any over acting in this movie and it all seemed natural. The comedic timing of the actors also made this movie that much more entertaining and funny.In conclusion this movie is great. I haven't seen a good comedy as this in a while now. The mixture of humour and laughs just seemed to be the icing on the top of the cake for this movie. With everything considered I am going to give this movie a 8/10.

Davis P Okay, I wasn't expecting a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination. And I realize that Adam Sandler's career in the film industry has been on a big decline. His dwindling quality is partly displayed in Grown Ups. Sandler is alright I suppose, just OK. The rest of the cast isn't any different at all really, it's just kinda mediocre at best. The gags do get tired and worn. The reason grown ups is getting a 5/10 is because of some of the warmer heart felt moments, they weren't amazing, but they were pretty good. The comedy just gets so old and been there, done that. The film doesn't cover any new ground whatsoever. That's not always a bad thing, but it is in this case, because grown ups just recycles old used worn out jokes and mediocre gags to try to entertain and make the audience laugh. For me, this movie was just eh whatever, I'll never see it again, because there are movie movies I would much rather watch than this. 5/10 for 2010's Grown Ups.

Taylor Kingston I really enjoyed this movie. I actually saw Grown Ups 2 at the cinema before seeing this, but I got the main idea of it, and managed to follow along. While I do think Grown Ups 2 is better, this is still a really funny movie with a lot of funny people, including one my personal favorite actors, Adam Sandler. This movie actually got bad ratings, and 2 got even worse, but you can't go by the general population's opinion. It was good enough to get a sequel. I think anyone who enjoys comedy or any of the actors/actresses in this movie, will enjoy it.After the passing of their basketball coach, five friends and their families gather up for his funeral. They decide to go to the lake house where they used to party when they were teenagers. But sadly, things can't go perfect when you have real-world problems and families to take care of. Some really funny stuff happens on that Fourth of July weekend, and it's a weekend that no one will ever forget.Overall, I give this movie a 7 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Great.
