Not again!

A Customer from Cambridge, 26th October, 2008

The rate at which Sandler-driven movie vehicles hit our screens should tell you all you need to know about their quality. The man is just not funny. All the way back to his golden age of Happy Gilmour his humour has been lame. What is the popular fascination with this comedian?

Zzzzzzzzzzz

EeyoreBride from , 30th April, 2009

Ok here we go, i am not a fan of sandler i just do not think his funny, im a fan of a few of his films but thats normally due to a good supporting cast, and they are the one where he is not doing that annoying scream and mocking noise or sarcastic laugh i hate it, and this film is just another one of those, its boring even my kids got bored. Verdict: Just glad my mum let me borrow her copy before i decided to rent it lol The guinea pig is cute though :-)

Might just send you to sleep

A Customer from Ashton-Under-Lyne, 21st January, 2009

Good as Sandler is, he can only work with the material he takes on, and I'm afraid he should have left this script under the bed. Sandlers father is the film is pretty much a down on his luck hotelier who sells out to the big boys who along with promising a wonderful new hotel, also say his son will be guaranteed a job for life. Of course no one mentioned the job would be as a lowly handyman come janitor. But luck and a few bedtime stories told to his newphew and niece will not let Sandlers fate be so lowly, and a change in fortune is never in doubt. There are no graet comedy moments, no great story and nothing muchh to mention, other than it is an OK movie that you wouldnt miss out on if you didnt see. basically for diehard Sandler fans only.

Despite being an adult, I quite enjoyed this film. It was very light hearted but still entertaining. I think Adam Sandler is good in it. Not good for grown up males but grown up females who think it sounds good would enjoy it.
