Saw Grown Ups tonight with Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Kevin James, David Spade, & Rob Schneider. The wife & I both thought it was one of the funnier movies we have seen the last couple years.

Not sure about this one. I love all the vintage Adam Sandler movies but I haven't thought much of his newer ones

First movie I will see in the theater since Transformers 2, which I was thoroughly disappointed with, but the company made it worth the money.

My wife got one of those free premeirs to see that movie last night.
Thought it was just fantastic.
I say go see it as soon as you can.
One of the best movies I have seen in a very long time.

Seriously? How old are you Gonzo these guys have been around forever and have been in some great movies.
This movie looks like it should be pretty funny though. I will probably go check it out next weekend.

How have you never heard of Adam Sandler?????? You are missing out on some AMAZING movies. I recommend you go out and rent Spanglish,50 first dates, and punch drunk love. All top 10 movies of all time.

2 of the 3 are among his worst IMO. Punch Drunk Love is good, but c'mon Spanglish? That's like recommending "Bewitched" to somebody who says they haven't heard of Will Ferrell.

He was being sarcastic when saying hes never heard of any of those actors. I figured naming 3 absolutely terrible sandler movies would get the point across that i was being sarcastic too. Guess not.

Good list...but I'd subtract 50 First Dates and add Reign Over Me. Thought he did an awesome job in that, very different intense role.

Reign Over Me was a very good movie! Sandler was also very good in Spanglish.

I didn't pick up on the sarcasm because Punch Drunk Love is a great movie and is critically acclaimed.

You have to get out of the "Happy Gilmore" and "Billy Madison" mindset. Sandler can't do those roles anymore. He's still funny, but he's not the same kind. I still love him.

Hm box office numbers show Grown Ups has only pulled in 14 mil so far. That is shocking. I figured it would make pretty good money.

It will do ok, but with Toy Story 3 out there....it is going to be tough to get real good numbers.
