    I enjoyed Blended, Pixels, Grown Ups, and Funny People

    I watched about 2-3rd in, took a dump, and no rush to finish the movie....

    I didn't watch any of the Twilight films, so I'm late in discovering

    Julia Jones, she's stunning.....

    Click was a pretty good movie...honestly the bottom 5 of those were all relatively decent. First grown ups was okay but could've been better. 2nd one was just awful.

    That was better than Seth's western? I don't think so.

    I got about five minutes in and turned it off in disgust.

    I saw it, and it was pretty bad. I expected it to be pretty bad. There were a few parts that kind of made me chuckle. Some of it was so bad that I had a really difficult time continuing to watch the rest of it.

    It had some good people in it.

    It wasn't better than Seth Macfalane's western. That wasn't great either. The worst parts of that movie weren't as bad as the worst parts of this movie. The best parts of that movie probably weren't as good as the best parts of Ridiculous Six. But there were so few best parts in both movies (especially Ridiculous Six) that it doesn't really matter.

    I didn't really waste my time watching it, because while I was watching it, I was doing some chores in the living room that I needed to get done.

    Even knowing it was going to be bad, it was a little worse than I thought it was going to be.

    Adam Sandler has a few good movies. Billy Madison is still my favorite, and that was the first one.

    I did like Punch Drunk Love, Happy Gilmore, and The Wedding Singer.

    Most people love Water Boy, and I thought that was okay, but not one I really love.

    I really enjoyed this movie. Thought it was funny and better than Seth's.

    How can some of you completely hold judgement on how bad this movie when you didn't even sit through the hole thing or didn't pay attention to it as you were doing other things? Go in with low expectations and you'll be entertained.

    I think a point needs to be made about the difference between an "Adam Sandler movie" and a movie Adam Sandler is in. If the movie is written and directed by ****ing Paul Thomas Anderson or Judd Apatow it isn't an adam Sandler movie. If the movie has a budget of 60 million or 80 million and looks like it cost 5 million to shoot, it is an adam sandler <s>scam</s> movie.

    I think anyone's opinion of this movie is just an opinion. But was this movie subtle enough that you were going to miss some finer points if a person was writing Christmas Cards, cleaning guns, wrapping Christmas gifts, or cutting out paper dolls while it was on?

    As for the folks that didn't sit through it all, if something is so bad they can't make it to the end, then that says something about how good it was to them.

    That's my weak defense of the posts against the flick.

    At the same time, I do understand that sitting down, and being ready and in the mood to watch a movie can definitely affect your enjoyment of that film. So I get what your saying. I just wasn't sure it applied in this case.

    If I had actually spent the money to see it at the theater (like Seth's western) I would be a little disappointed (like I was with Seth's western), but for a bad weather Netlfix time killer I did not think it was that bad. It was about on par with the other recent Sandler movies. I woulds take the Ridiculous 6 and its stupid humor over A Million Ways to Die in the West and its raunchy one liners any day.
