After "Don't Mess With Zohan" I really thought Sandler was going to have a rebound movie and bring us all back to the days of "Billy Madison" and "Anger Management" but "Growns Ups" was definitely not it. This movie was just a bunch of 10 minute scenes leading up to a single punchline then a scene change. It was the comedic equivalent to "The Expendables" in the sense that a cast of stars couldn't save it from sucking. When the camera first panned to Chris Rock I thought the movie would be saved and at least he would be watchable....and....to my surprise...even he couldn't produce a laugh. I've never saw such talented people struggle to be funny. Everything came off as awkward and badly timed. I didn't laugh one time until near the end when the "I'm the black guy" discussion went down on the basketball court. All copies of this should be hunted down and 451'd.
Overall Rating: .5/5 Stars; The half star is for the star studded cast, not their performance.
