Ignore the haters
My kids and I loved it....we thought it was fun and entertaining. There is some language though.
God loves you as if you were the only person on this earth.

Yeah, i liked the idea behind it and Sandler fit into it well. one of the better Sandler movies/comedies, especially in recent memory.
as far as comedies go with Sandler... 1)Happy Gilmore (1996) (7.5-8/10) (THE movie ill remember Sandler for in general. i doubt i am the only person with that opinion either.) 2)Just Go With It (2011)(7/10). behind those two i would probably go with this movie at the moment.
6-6.5/10 ; which currently puts it my #6 movie out of the 30 2015 released movies i have seen at this point. ill see how it holds up on a re-watch eventually but i think it will hold steady.
as far as the haters... this site is largely anti-Sandler so i would not take them all that seriously.
p.s. on a side note... one part in the movie you can clearly read that Sandler said '$h1t' but they edited it out and inserted another word instead.

"haters". Has a signature including "God". Yeah, stereotype confirmed. This is a horrible movie, even though your kids, pets or whatever enjoyed it. There are other criteras a movie must pass. I don't mean this as a personal insult by the way.. It's just such a common pattern when it comes to any medium. I do realize stupid people need entertainment aswell, but the problem with that is that fewer masterpieces are created as there is no need, when dimwits will eat anything thrown in their face.
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
it's cute that you think you're smarter than the average dimwit, c-ulf.
remember, if you don't have anything nice to say ...you're probably a butthole
I do, yes. I wouldn't claim to be intelligent though.. That'd be arrogant :)
Also, I don't know if that last sentence is directed at me or just your signature.. Either way, that is such a lazy thing to say. By criticizing we get somewhere.. It's getting offended that's the real culprit. It rarely serves a purpose and just claiming to be offended is such an easy way to avoid retrospection.
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
bashing someone you don't know for their religious beliefs in a public forum is exactly what the average dimwit would do, just so you know.
remember, if you don't have anything nice to say ...you're probably a butthole
That wasn't my only point. It's a combined package in this case. I wouldn't generalize on the religious thing alone, although I'd be correct in most cases if I did. It's a bit too hit-and-miss though.
Using the word "haters" as an adult is more of a teller tbh.
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
You're just the world needs.. another Internet smart guy who think everyone is to blame except him for everything. Yeah, we all believe your intelligence is on another level.. judging by your past posts you're just a moron. Crying about every other movie and it's rating.. I mean really, can you be any more of a neckbeard? Plus your narcissism shows by putting an "artistic" photo of yourself just so everyone can notice how intelligent and unique you are. Oh and let's not forget how right you are by judging a whole group of people by one imdb forum signature (without knowing the context, of course you special little flower). Please tell us how it's like living in a *beep* apartment jerking off to lesbian porn hating everything, seeing people around you grow up while you think they are just "slaves" to comfort yourself and your sad, pathetic life.. I bet it's sad that you can't call your parents to say how you are doing because you are too embarassed to admit that you are a major failure. :) Just like every other special intelligent internet flower moron.
shareWoah! That was.. aggressive. I don't see what my profile picture, my signature or my past post has to do with the argument at hand. You're very free to think of me in whatever way you want though, as my signature suggests :]
I've never claimed to be intelligent, I've just stated that there are an absurd amount of stupid people in the world.
I don't do these namecalling, or rather shouting, things alot of you seem into on here, so you'll have to do that with someone else.
Like I said, it's the collected package, and I haven't said I can prove a damn thing.
I did try to grow a neckbeard the other week, but my double chins are too protruding.. I shall try again and report back to you.
Have a lovely weekend!
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
Your such a *beep* LOSER, your writing on a forum about a movie were video games come to life like your *beep* Albert Einstein explaining string theory,, Get a life and stop being a demeaning little prick
shareWow! Lots to say here.
"haters". Has a signature including "God". Yeah, stereotype confirmed.What stereotype would that be?
This is a horrible movie, even though your kids, pets or whatever enjoyed it.Who says? You? How are you an authority of a subjective media?
There are other criteras a movie must passFirst, how 'bout stereotypes about people that make up their own words? Second, I'll assume that you meant "criteria". If so, what criteria would that be and who's criteria? Yours? Again, qualifications please.
I do realize stupid people need entertainment aswell, but the problem with that is that fewer masterpieces are created as there is no need, when dimwits will eat anything thrown in their face.This to me, epitomizes arrogant elitism. What puts you in a position to proclaim this? Do you consider yourself a stupid person or a dimwit? Just out of curiosity, what would you consider to be a "masterpiece"?

One that would be considered very narrow minded :) Organized religion tends to attract a certain crowd.So someone posting that they like a movie illustrates your alleged stereotype of being "very narrow minded", how?
Certainly not. Although beauty is in the eyes of the beholder;You are correct but then you contradictct yourself:
Honey Boo Boo is not beautiful. Justin Bieber does not make good music, and Adam Sandler does not make good movies. Common sense.Those are your OPINIONS which MILLIONS of people would disagree with. There are MILLIONS of people that would say that There Will Be Blood and the Big Lebowski are not good movies and they would be just as wrong as you are in saying that Adam Sandler does not make good movies. Those are OPINIONS and Tastes which by definition, CANNOT be wrong.
I don't see myself as intelligent, no.Well then you are one of the very people that you are deriding.
I am of the opinion that current generations glorifies stupid people, which ultimately leads to widespread studipidity.I agree with you there but this movie is farcical, lighthearted, harmless humor. Sure "Downfall" or "Schindler's List" have some very valuable messages that movies like this don't have but so what? People often times watch movies like this for a little fun and escapism. Nothing wrong with that.
With that said; I am very aware of the fact that I sound arrogant, and I don't see it as something negative.I prefer to try to be humble. People tend to tune arrogant people out.
The whole quoting business required too much work, so here we go;
I actually meant that my view would be considered narrow-minded. The whole religious debate would get very drawn out, and I have debated it too much on the internet. Let's leave that point to where it is..
Of course people would disagree, and I can't by definition say that they are wrong. But come on.. Everyone knows that the music industry would be better off without the Nikki Minaj's and Miley Cyruses of the world. Lazy entertainment that sounds and blinks in an offensive and raunchy manner.. Not entirely unlike a certain Trump. Not a coincidence.
Regarding the intelligence question; I'd say average is a far way from stupid. Although there is no clear definition there either.
And no, there's absolutely nothing wrong with liking the simple. I find it a bit sad, but that's me. The horrible aftereffece is that more crap gets produced rather than movies like Birdman, Whiplash or The Grand Budapest Hotel.
So in conclusion; You are absolutely right in that I can't make a claim that Justin Bieber is better than Leonard Cohen.. by definition.
Oh, and I definitely prefer humble over arrogant aswell. I do have a tendency to sound arrogant as I make inital statements though as it is the internet and people usually needs, like I said, loud and clear. I am working on becoming better at that :)
Probably a few more typos here. I'm feverish and a bit Swedish :D
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
Nice reply :)
religious debates are stupid and the only time I engage is when someone puts forth their OPINION as fact. No proof either way.
Enjoy what you enjoy is what I say :)
I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!
"haters". Has a signature including "God". Yeah, stereotype confirmed. This is a horrible movie, even though your kids, pets or whatever enjoyed it.

Ah, starting argumentation with a personal attack. Very effective indeed! Enjoy your day, sir!
"Everybody judges, all the time. Now, you got a problem with that... You're livin' wrong. "
I just watched this movie. And it was really good from "geek" POV.
Ignore haters for sure.
There is some language though.
I thought the movie was pretty funny. I wouldn't call it a masterpeice, but it had quite a few funny scenes, with Peter Dinklage being particularly amusing.
Sadly it didn't do great at the box office, but sometimes good movies can bomb.
I don't know if its preteniousness or arrogance that inspires people to post some of the negative stuff that clutters these boards. I think its mostly people with time on their hands/ SOme people just enjoy being annoying.
Just watched it over the weekend. Really enjoyed it. Assuming this movie has poor ratings because of all the Sandler haters. Which is weird. They hate the actor, hate his movies, but still take time from their lives to watch the movie and go straight to the internet to complain about it. Kind of pathetic honestly but if they have nothing better to do....whatever.
