Blended - 當我們混在一起

Blended (當我們混在一起) is an 2014 film. The movie stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. The supporting cast include Bella Thorne, Shaquille O'Neal, Terry Crews, Joel McHale, Kevin Nealon, Wendi McLendon-Covey, and Dan Patrick. The movie reunites Sandler and Barrymore for the third time, after The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates.

The movie is about Sandler as Jim Friedman, a widowed father of three children and Barrymore as Lauren Reynolds, a divorced mother of two children. When Jim and Lauren go on a blind date, it goes horribly wrong, leaving the two with strong feelings of "hate" for each other. Fast forward, they both somehow get on a trip to Africa, meeting in the lobby of the hotel. Because the vacation is together, they are forced to spend time together. AND....you can make out the rest of the plot based on the title of the movie.

This is an Sandler film. It has Sandler written all over it. If you're not a Sandler fan, you will not like it. Sandler doesn't care anymore about new fans, he's milking it with his old fans and those like me growing older with him. And I like that he doesn't make apologies with some recent bombs like Jack and Jill and That's My Boy. I for one don't miss a lot of Sandler movies. So, watch it if you are an Sandler fan. I am and I enjoyed this movie.

Just Go With It - 愛情大臨演

Just Go With It (愛情大臨演) is a 2011 film. The movie stars Adam Sandler, Jennifer Anniston, and Brooklyn Decker. Supporting cast and cameo apparences by Nick Swardson, Nicole Kidman, Dave Matthews, and Dan Patrick.

Adam Sandler plays a plastic surgeon who was extremely hurt on the eve of his wedding 20 years ago. After that, he gets a nose job and finds that wearing a ring let's him get some action and not have to stay committed. Now, a very successful Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, he's rich and living life. However, at a party by the beach, he bumps into Brooklyn Decker as a 2nd grade teacher. But when the awake the next morning, she finds a wedding ring in his pocket. Distraught, she doesn't want to see him again. Adam's office manager is played by Jennifer Anniston and he confides in her with all his life stories. Anniston suggest that he fake a divoce to prove that's he truly wants to be with Decker. They goto Hawaii to make this happen!

The movie was very very very predictable. From the get go, you knew that things were a little off. It is a typical Sandler film. Sandler starts the film off as a jerk with a big heart. A coming of age story unfolds and he realizes what's really important in his life and he gets the girl! Same story all the time. Its just the getting there and with whom that changes from film to film. For this one, it wasn't so bad to see Anniston and Decker square off in bikinis. Nice.
