terrible film

Everything about it was bad. It wasn't funny, the acting sucked, the plot was horrible, and it was just completely unrealistic. Was it written by 12 year olds? I wasn't expecting oceans eleven or trading spaces but c'mon now, this was ridiculous.

Hopefully someone reads this and I save them a dollar twenty and a hundred and four minutes. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 68%, shame on them. They gave Almost Heroes 14%. Go watch Almost Heroes and laugh your ass off then watch this and tell me which one deserves the 14%. I'm flabbergasted.

One of the worst I've ever sat all the way through. I felt like Ben Stiller was trying to cash in on the 99% vs. the 1% political atmosphere in the country when this came out. But was it a comedy that wasn't funny or a drama that wasn't dramatic or a something else? Who knows? I don't think anyone working on the film could say.

And Alan Alda makes a horrible bad guy. (Not to mention that he has the screen presence of a sidewalk.)

just saw half of grownups 2 (sorry I just had to see how bad it was), yeah tower heist isn't looking so bad right now, adam sandler is really a mystery to me now, how can he be allowed to continually put flops in theaters, and how can films full of funny people/comedians not be funny? Anyway, I did see the film "mud" the other day and it was really good. Jeff Nichols directs and writes some really great films.

I agree with you on ALL points.

Tower Heist was bad but at least there wasn't any Fart and Sh!t jokes. Grown Ups part one really wasn't that bad but what the f--k were they thinking?

Not one funny bit in either film.

Adam Sandler does what he wants. He's Jewish, Hollywood is run by the Jews. Question answered.

Sorry to destroy your anti-semitic tirade, but Hollywood is run by those who buy tickets to movies.

You actually believe that, don't you?

That is only 1/2 true. I recommend the film "Operation Hollywood". Link below.
