Movie Review: ‘That’s My Boy’ Starring Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg, Leighton Meester
There has never been an Adam Sandler film I have ever been excited about. I caught Happy Gilmore on HBO when I was younger, but that is the extent of my toleration of his films. This is very important to note because if you are a fan of his brand of comedy and have liked […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Just Go With It
Just Go With It has a couple of funny moments sprinkled into a contrived and implausible mess of a plot that is only kept afloat by its appealing group of actors. Sandler’s latest comedy romance flick is a bit confused with what it wants to be as it openly embraces broad physical comedy as well […]

Roger Qbert Reviews “Grown Ups” Starring Adam Sandler
I’m a comedy snob. You should probably know that. That’s not too say I can’t enjoy a good pratfall or I only laugh if someone makes a reference to Kierkegaard. But give me Saturday Night Live over MADtv any day of the week. And I’ll take Kids in the Hall over both of them. Or […]
Review of “Grown Ups” starring Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James and Rob Schneider
Like “arrow roulette” that we see in the movie, GROWN UPS is joke roulette; some Jokes hit, some miss. Last week I wrote a review about Toy Story 3 which took me back to my childhood and growing up. This week I went and saw Grown Ups. I know most of the movie critics will […]
Grown Ups

The team […]
