Adam Sandler and his production company joined forces with Netflix, making one movie after another together. I don’t know whether this cooperation infused him with some new energy, but he’s been making one crazy comedy after another. And even though they’re all kind of alike, I still really like watching his movies. True, it’s been a long time for him to make a comedy that would stand out against the rest, but he maintains a solid comedy standard (even though he sometimes employs toilet humor). So if you like Adam’s humor, this is an absolute classic with everything it entails. Sometimes incredibly funny, at times a bit annoying, but all in all a perfect chill-out, which in the entire contemporary American comedy genre probably suits my tastes the best.

So 3 stars. Adam Sandler and James Spade are a good pair and there are a few laughs, but overall the film is quite boring and mostly looks cheap, which may turn some people off. I don't recommend it 50%

Absolutely crazy trash that goes from being a comedy where sweat drips from a fat Puertorican’s balls onto the main protagonists’ face, to become a touching picture about a family and cancer treatment. Great one-liners and an excellent Sandler.

I can't help it, but Adam Sandler's humor just resonates with me. I actually don't care what craziness he comes up with or what role he plays, I just like his style, and no other film will probably change that. He has had great chemistry with David Spade for a long time, and here they really carry the film well, although Paula Patton definitely deserves a mention. It's absolute nonsense, but it immensely pleased me and lifted my mood.
