Very disappointing...

Sadly Over-hyped

How sad is this?

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I am so glad I ignored the haters and watched this! I laughed so hard during this movie my side hurt for a long time. David Spade was awesome in this - just the look he gave sometimes was Oscar worthy. And Adam Sandler was great and he is back baby! The movie was sick and twisted just like his movies of old. The acting was spot on and I was never bored a single moment. Great great movie - should be a classic! I loved it!!!!!!!!

Pros: One funny moment... or maybe two. That's it. Luis Guzman 6/10 (Good actor) Casting 6/10 (A bounch of well known comedians, Matt Walsh, Kathryn Hahn etc) Cons: Scenario 2/10 (Unrealistic and predictable scenario, even for a comedy with silly jokes) Direction 2/10 Adam Sadler 3/10 David Spade 4/10 (funny in his role, or just funnier than Sadler) Not what I call a good comedy. 3/10 by me.

I'm not a critic, so I won't pretend to be one. I just wanted to add a good review to this site because I didn't think it was a bad movie. Was is Sandler's best, no. But was it good, yes. The acting was good, had a decent plot, and what I felt was a decent ending. It kept my interest and made me laugh. I watch a movie to be entertained and escape from the real world for a couple of hours. It did that and that's what made it good for me. If you're watching for Sandler in hopes of seeing another Billy Madison, The Waterboy, or even The Longest Yard (3 of my favs), look to re-watching those movies because this isn't it. I started watching the movie not to see old Sandler comedy, but just to see Sandler, and Spade, and I wasn't disappointed. The comedy is a bit raunchy, but funny. So, without spoiling, be prepared. Just watch it and have fun like I did.

When Adam Sandler name is there on the movie, one expects it to be a nice, light and funny movie. This movie contains all the ingredients but it is just so badly made. Till the end you have one question on mind, who is what and why. Bad editing, confusing, overlapping scenarios and bad timed scenes. The topic and story line is good, a man doing whats required to save his life for the family and himself but this is one movie which has completely destroyed the plot. Then again it becomes worse and worse. Adam sandler is found tired in the entire movie it seems like someone is forcing him to act. Cast has done no justice with the movie. The only actor who seems to be interested was David Spade. It seems that the script was written while the movie was being shoot. First a guy is shown as a bad guy, then an insurance investigator and then FBI agent. Cause they have to fit him in the story. anyways, i would not at all recommend this movie even for a single time watch and even you are die hard Adam Sandler fan. Just don't watch this at all.
