Grown Ups

Grown Ups has a talented and funny cast. Yet based on the performances in this movie it is difficult to remember that these actors are, in fact, talented and funny. None of the characters are well-developed and the plot is flimsy. The movie lacks both a good story and good comedy. It is great that Adam Sandler likes his friends and enjoys hanging out with them; however, I'm not sure why that had to be done under the guise of making a movie. The best thing about Grown Ups is Maya Rudolf. She is a lone beautiful flower growing out of a large expensive pile of manure. I wanted so much to like this movie but I just couldn't. It is lazy and unfunny.
