What’s worse than a movie starring Adam Sandler? How about Adam Sandler taking a big, steaming dump all over your childhood? That’s Pixels for ya.

Review: ‘Grown Ups 2’ Starring Adam Sandler and Friends is One of 2013’s Worst Movies
The opening joke of Grown Ups 2 (not opening scene mind you but opening joke) features a deer pissing in Adam Sandler‘s face. I envy that deer.

Movie Review: ‘Grown Ups 2’ Starring Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James
The first Grown Ups hit theaters some three years ago, and as is the trend is in Hollywood, sequels have become something of an inevitability.

Movie Review: ‘Hotel Transylvania’ Starring Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg, Kevin James
It’s fitting that a movie featuring classic monsters is assembled from so many parts that you’d half-expect to discover it was directed by Doctor Frankenstein himself. Such is the case with Hotel Transylvania. Let’s count them off, shall we? Adam Sandler voices Count Dracula, an over protective father scared of letting his child face the […]
