Let's be realistic.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
I like Adam Sandler. Sue me, I do. I also enjoy the first Grown Ups, it was one of the few PG-13 movies I could see at the time. I saw this one once. It was alright. Saw it with a friend, Liked it better. Now, it's just okay. I counted 32 pee, poo, and other sick jokes. The credits start at 94 minutes, so a character makes a scatological or gross joke every 2.9 minutes. I do not hate this movie, but I do not care either. When a whole gag is a man fixing a chocolate ice cream and it looks like he's crapping all over the machine, or a cough/sneeze/burp at once-like 3 times, and other sick jokes, I can't say I enjoyed it, and I know I am being WAY too kind to it, but I do know it sucks. 94*3=282 minutes of my life I have spent on this. I apologize for spending 4 hours and 42 minutes of my life on this. To be fair, I have spent well over 1,050 minutes-over a day, on Stand By Me.But yes, it's stupid, and What The Flick! on YouTube opened my eyes that this sucks. Oh, and by the way, I laughed twice at most.I like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore and even That's My Boy. But this, Sandler's first sequel, sucks. It just medicorely sucks. I am being easy on the rating. Not so much for why.
Movies like this are a perfect example of why IMBD needs a zero rating for movies. This is one of the worst things to ever happen to the movies since Paris Hilton tried her hand at acting a decade ago. There is no plot whatsoever, and the jokes either don't land at all or are just plain offensive. Taylor Lautner's part was funnier than anything Sandler or anyone else did this entire movie. This is the laziest excuse for a comedy film I've ever seen.
Why not, well at least, I think you did not insult any other culture, in this one which is amazing because you seem to need to make fun of people and their quirks. The problem is, you talk to yourself in a mirror and you convince yourself that it is funny when reality it is not. You SERIOUSLY need to start consulting REAL comedians before you make another movie. What you think is funny is not. Hey, not picking on you but check the mirror, hit movie, Happy Gilmore, you made fun of yourself, Just Go With It, great movie great soundtrack, but the nose, do you think audiences are stupid, and you make fun of a musician with a goatee. Whenever you poke, you lose the movie, so pick on Americans and yourself, because your greatest successes have come from that. STOP pissing off cultures.
Agreed there is no plot and it has no connection with the first movie except the characters, but this is a non-stop laugh. Simple fun and it delivers. Funny how everyone is criticizing the CGI deer. If it was that real all the animal rights cooks would be out in fool force. This is 5x's funnier than original. The lacking plot is made up for with continuous laughs. Definitely over the top. The irony is a little drawn out with many coincidences as mentioned in other reviews. One of the best five buck movies I've purchased in years. Plenty of eye candy throughout. Ironically this could be a kids movie if the adult themes were toned back since the comedy is simple enough for the whole family otherwise.
