I saw the first Grown Ups movie and I honestly don't remember anything about it.
I used to like Adam Sandler.
I sort of like Kevin James.
I really like Chris Rock.
David Spade is useless.
The trailer had fart and tittie jokes and juvenile pranks.
I really don't like the number "2" after a title for a sequel. I usually hate colons in titles but Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan is better than just Star Trek 2. What could one call Grown Ups 2? Also Grown Ups or Grown Ups Also would imply a level of maturity. Grown Ups 2: Homeward Bound? Grown Ups 2: Old School? Grown Ups 2: Happy Madison? Grown Ups 2: Easy Money.
I think it should be called, Grown Ups 2: Cheap Laughs.
I'll likely wait until this film is on Netflix before I see it.
MEH.
And look at this...

This blog was inspired by Max Beerbohm (August 24, 1872 – May 20, 1956) an English essayist, parodist, critic and caricaturist. He was once asked how he wrote his book reviews. He answered, "I look at the book, write the review and, if I like the review, I'll read the book." I sort of apply Max's approach to movies. Kind of like judging a book by its cover... only judging a movie by its trailer.

SO TRUE!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sending this!
It's funny because it's true, your review that is. Loved the "honest trailer." Though I have to say, I did see bits of Grown Ups when it was playing at our school (believe it or not) and it did elicit a few chuckles. I don't quite hate it with the same venom as the trailer maker, but then again, I don't get out much these days so the bar is very low as far as what rates as entertainment. Keep on bloggin'.
