Absolutely the worst movie.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Like films of the past such as Meatballs, Police Academy, Summer Rental and many others, Grown Ups delivers in SNL style comedy. with a star studded cast of Adam Sandler, Kevin James, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Chris Rock, Salma Hayek, Maya Rudolph, Maria Bello, Steve Buscemi and Tim Meadows this original style comedy is fair.A childhood basketball coach dies and the boys and their wives get together for a week to say goodbye and reminisce about the good old days and along the way teach their kids what being a kid back then meant. There is old style humor that if you grew up in the 80's you would remember.It is a fun film for adults who recognize the meaning behind friendship and the childhood they had. I give this a solid 6 of 10.

The movie starts out with 5 kids who look like the adult stars winning the city championship in basketball in 1978 at the buzzer. 30 years later they reunite at Coach "Buzzer's" funeral and opt to spend a weekend together at a lake house with their families. Three of them have "normal" families that don't appreciate them. A fourth is married to a woman twice his age and a fifth is still single.The humor consists mostly at exchanging barbs and zingers, making fun of people who are fat, short,ugly, or old. There is a sophomoric running joke of the 4 year old that still breast feeds (even in public) because the liberal permissive parents can't say no. This joke could have been left out. (Sometimes less is more.) After spending a few hours outdoors, the big five notices that their families are all inside in their electronic world. They go inside and force the family to enjoy the great outdoors with expected results. Eventually the team they beat for the championship as kids challenges them to another basketball game because Robin Williams didn't gross us out enough.The movie ends on a warm and fuzzy note as many inane comedies do, teaching us a lesson on the importance of family and friends, but not overly warm and fuzzy. I thought Salma Hayek did an excellent job considering her poorly written lines and overall weak script

That title right there is not talking about your laughing, more the actors. This movie definitely is funny a good portion of the time, the rest time it is cringe inducing. 90% of the movie is the actors laughing. It's like the script said "Tell joke *laughs*, (next scene) say something that we can't understand cause everyone is talking *laugh*." In conclusion, Grown Ups is a decent comedy.

I was warned not to waste my time, but did anyway. I figured it may be good for a few laughs. I laughed once... once! But, I must admit that the one laugh was during the first half which was the only half I watched. I bought the part 1 & 2 combo disk, and after the first half of part 1, I threw the disk & case into the trash. It was as if these guys got together and started filming with no script, and just made it up as they went along. And nothing happened, over and over and over again. A woman breastfeeding a four-year old might be funny to some. But I can't imagine the same idea being funny every 5 minutes. Likewise, some might find it funny that Rob's wife looks like a homely mother. But the same thing is not funny every 5 minutes. The script declares comedy-writing bankruptcy continually.
