In fact, it doesn't improve the film at all. There's a few decent one-liners, but that's not really gonna improve a film that much. At least Jack and Jill had Al Pacino being a madman, but I don't think this film has any real redeeming qualities whatsoever. And you know what, in a career or phoning it in with the laziest attempts at puerile humor, that's really saying something that this is his laziest film yet. It's the laziest film I think Sandler has done yet. I can't imagine the actual process being much more different than that. Can Adam Sandler really get a screenwriting credit for his "work" in this movie? It's like he took a bunch of random sketches he couldn't fit into any of his other movies and threw it on here and had to come up with SOMETHING to tie all these sketches together, so he called up his buddies and told them to come down to shoot a sequel to Grown Ups. Not that I think they had much trouble getting laughs, as this is the type of film that applies to the lowest-common denominator. You know shit's bad when the actors themselves are literally begging for laughs. The moments between the sketches themselves are painful to watch, as they show the characters laughing at the stuff they just did, almost like the film equivalent of canned laughter so as to make unfunny jokes funny.
MOVIE GROWN UPS 2 MOVIE
The movie is really a series of skits without any real sense of direction or progression. Random and juvenile sketches are the law of the jungle in this movie. Take any random Sandler movie, the ones that his company have produced, and this film is almost like a Greatest Hits version of that. This time, though, it didn't really rub off on me as much as it repelled me from ever watching a Sandler movie again. But, much like the first film, the cast seemed to be having a lot of fun. This movie, however, is just as bad as you can imagine. The fact of the matter is that I think the cast had a lot to do with that, they seemed to have fun and that can rub off at times. From what I was expecting, it could have been far worse than it ended up being. I wouldn't ever say that I liked the first Grown Ups, not even close, but I didn't hate it either. When a film starts like this, you know that there's nowhere to go but down. The first five minutes of the film sees a deer sneak its way into the Feder's house and proceed to pee in everybody's mouth when they scare him.
