Just Go with It

The first hour is excruciating, but when the chaos shifts to Hawaii and Nicole Kidman appears, it all starts to make sense, the jokes suddenly become funny and the useless characters become marginal. If you can stand the hula hula competition, believe me, you won't know where to look, because you'd be surprised to know that Nicole and Jennifer Aniston are more attractive than ever and the presence of some awkward Sports Illustrated cover beauty in a small role really can't mess them up. Go Girls. (23/01/2015)

Heavy-duty romance. Sandler-style. It’s clear how it ends already from the trailer or from the description on the posters, but I really enjoyed Just Go With It. Jennifer Anniston has a good part to act and is sexy as hell (how old is she?) and Sandler plays it safe. Brooklyn Decker makes your jaw drop down to the ground, but I don’t think I could forgive her for listening to N'Sync ;). Apart from the classic template, we have resuscitating a sheep, jokes about dead pandas, jokes about homosexuals, a hand down the toilet and beating kids. Great fun... Maybe you should earn your own money. As a newspaper boy or something like that. The rich don’t give others money for nothing, that’s why they’re rich, understand? (27/05/2011)

This title speaks for itself. Adam Sandler tried to make me laugh and he succeeded once again. That guy just has something that a lot of people hate and the same lot of people love. It works for me and I look forward to every one of his next movies. This one is definitely one of the very successful ones. (22/03/2014)

In a small metaphor, it's about the most luxurious vacation, where the sun never shines fully. And yet if the script hadn't pushed the most far-fetched plot line to the forefront, the ratings would have climbed possibly even to the highest marks. Adam Sandler surprises with his inventive moderation, and when he invites the fun-loving Jennifer Aniston and fantastically unbearable Nicole Kidman along for the ride, I simply have to admire him. But the whole fanciful fairytale about the family is something so stupidly exaggerated that I still can't believe it. And yet, for example, the little outspoken girl with the British accent is an invaluable character. A conflicted 70%. (18/08/2011)

Sandler is amazing! hen he's bored, he packs up two shirts, a couple of friends, two obnoxious kids and one of the hottest 40-somethings in the world and goes to Hawaii for a couple of weeks, where one of the least talented comedy directors will dutifully film it all; what's more, it makes him an incredible amount of money. Not to sound sarcastic, but yes, it's a film about something that very much resembles a turd, but yes, I had fun with it, and I had as much fun with the actors in that amazing setting as I've had in a long time with any other similarly-themed film (since, I don’t know, 50 First Dates). Unfortunately, it still has a bunch of annoying parts and the story is almost non-existent, so there’s no choice but to watch it once in a good mood and avoid it in the future. Overall, though, it’s quite alright. (01/12/2016)
