- 40New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanNew York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanYou know what you’re going to get, and that is, indeed, what Sandler delivers. It’s juvenile, it’s obvious and it’s crass. But with Sandler at the helm, at least it’s as easy to like as it is to forget.
- 38McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreMcClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreIt’s another pointless romp through Sandlerland — where the women are buxom, the kids have catch-phrases and the jokes are below average.
- 38Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperChicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperAn average Adam Sandler comedy, which, sadly, means it’s a below-average comedy — because whatever comedic fire and bursts of genuinely inspired humor Sandler once possessed have long ago burnt out.
- 20New Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottNew Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottLazy and stupid and unwilling to put forth the effort needed to distinguish itself even from a mediocre Internet video, it all amounts to a forgettable, slapdash bit of comedic nothingness.
- 20The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThroughout, gags are cartoonishly broad and afforded so little time for setup and delivery we seem to be watching less a story than a catalog of tossed-out material.
- 20Arizona RepublicRandy CordovaArizona RepublicRandy CordovaIt’s hard to imagine another comedy coming along this year that is this abrasive and free of laughs. It’s like everyone involved intentionally tried to create a horrible movie.
- 20Time OutTime OutIn the first five minutes, a deer walks into the star’s bedroom and urinates on his face. It’s all downhill from there.
- 10The DissolveNathan RabinThe DissolveNathan RabinThe film is so slight that it feels less like a proper sequel to Grown Ups than a failed television spin-off that inexplicably cast Sandler and the gang in the lead roles instead of their low-budget television equivalents.
