You Decide...

Rating: 2/10 (7 February 2013)

So anyway... I am a HUGE Kevin James fan (thought I don't know if he has made GOOD choices since "Hitch" {still riding the "King of Queens" train maybe} & sorry Kev - I DO SERIOUSLY think you're hilarious, I found this movie extremely juvenile at best (not exactly a slight to Adam Sandler because I am a fan and do feel he has potential but hasn't yet reached it - & possibly hasn't tried - obviously this isn't a forte) Here is my take. Kevin had some moments - though they are few and far between. Trying to go again for a quasi-sentimental story line should be OK since we're in America this is "tried & true" but frankly failed miserably this time) I know this shows my age but I did enjoy the "tip of the hat" (though now not sure if intentional) to Henry Winkler's character in "The One And Only" and Niko's learning through music like Anson Williams in "Happy Days" (ie "Pumps The Blood"). The rest? Kinda repetitive and "used". I would like to see Adam graduate to something "semi" adult and see how it goes. Plus I would like to see Kevin really come into his own because I do feel he has a potential that is not yet explored. This was not it for either of them. Again just IMHO.
