Grown Ups 2

      

This is the first Adam Sandler movie that is a sequel.  Unless you consider that basically every movie he’s every done is a sequel of a Man-child (Billy Madison) with a beautiful wife/girlfriend (Just Go With It) and his goofy friends (Steve Buscemi and Allen Covert) in a Northern town (Mr. Deeds) seeking to relive their youth (Grown Ups).  Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke is his motto.

Our hero finds himself just a few months after moving back to his hometown basically doing what a Man-child does:  not much, hanging around K-Mart, walking around town, hanging out with his friends and their parents. 

The other Men-children are along for the ride:  Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade.  The movie gets slow to start then the second half is filling with a ridiculously –themed 80s party (Wedding Singer).

Something to see if you’ve got not much else going on this summer.
