Good entertainment, funny.

Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2017

Another Adam Sandler Movie... if you like his movies you know what to expect. Good, funny, not the best ever, but good. So stop saying its a remake of the same movie over and over. It is just his style of movies. I prefer his movies to the Seth Rogen movies which only makes jokes about farts, and say the F word like a million times. Better something funny and ok to watch with family.

Watch only if the grass is already grown and the paint is already dry.

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2019

I know it’s not meant to be a serious piece but it seemed hard to get through. While theirs is an unlikely pairing, Aniston and Sandler genuinely seem to like each other which helps the idea of them as a couple.
The really unbelievable choice is Sandler’s love interest, about 20 years his junior, where there is simply zero screen chemistry.
The story is neither hilarious nor compelling and the characters are flat and underdeveloped. Particularly obnoxious are the buddy with a stupid German accent any moron could see through and the young daughter whose horrible wavering cockney imitation and perpetual gosh-darned spunk would make Mickey Rooney and Shirley Temple walk out of the theatre in high dudgeon.

I was dissappointed in the movie.

I thought the plot was too contrived. There was too much lying to cover up lies. The movie is 2 hours long. A lot of things could have been edited out. Less is more. There were a few funny moments. There was callback humor that was killed to death.

I'm an Adam Sandler fan. Not even Adam can save this movie. Nick Swarzmann is funny, but not in this movie. It was painful watching Dave Matthews and Nicole Kidman's superficial, haughty characters. Not funny.

Brooklyn Decker did a decent job considering she had no acting experience. I wouldn't recommend buying this movie.

the writers felt it entirely unnecessary to explain in this tattered yarn

Hmm...utterly predictable, corny, and meaningless. If ever there was reason to lie to someone you care for, the writers felt it entirely unnecessary to explain in this tattered yarn. My wife agrees, having fallen asleep yet minutes into it, after saying, "This movie is ridiculous!"
Two stars for the casting - none for the rest of the cinematic effort.

Not their best effort

I love Jennifer Aniston. I usually like Adam Sandlar movies. There are some funny moments, but the set up feels too forced as do a lot of the lines. No chemistry of hilarity going on. Not their best effort.

I know, I should know better. It's Adam Sandler, right? Empty plot, lots of potty humor, total cliche. Jennifer, beautiful, as expected, but aiming low. No wonder so many Americans are so dumb.

Lacking Chemistry

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2015

This movie is funny at times, but Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston simply lack the sort of chemistry that Adam Sandler had with Drew Barrymore (or even Winona Ryder) in some of his better romantic comedies. If you want a good Adam Sandler movie (Yes, they do exist!), then I'd suggest 50 First Dates, Blended, Mr. Deeds or The Wedding Singer.

Not very funny and not Adam Sandler's best work

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2015

The whole movie is based on lies and lying. Not just one character, but almost all of them. Very predictable story line with an over abundance of sick sexual innuendos. Not very funny and not Adam Sandler's best work. Not recommended and especially NOT recommended for 14 or under.
