The death of their childhood basketball coach leads to a reunion for some old friends (Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock), who gather at the site of a championship celebration years earlier. Picking up where they left off, the buddies -- with wives and children in tow -- discover why age does not, necessarily, equal maturity.

Critics Consensus

Grown Ups' cast of comedy vets is amiable, but they're let down by flat direction and the scattershot, lowbrow humor of a stunted script.

Granted, Sandler's script has one or two laughs, but it's mostly excruciating and lacks the self-mockery of, say, a Judd Apatow movie.

Rated: 1/5

London Evening Standard

Despite some passable gags and a whole posse of middle-aged funnymen, Denis Dugan's comedy is about the least grown-up movie you could see.

Deep Focus Review

Lazy and inept as comedies get, Grown Ups features a plethora of talented stars doing very little to entertain us.

Rated: 1/4

This film is an absolute vibe! I weeze hard at the comedy, the story is fun, and the characters are so god damn great! Definitely one of the more underrated Adam Sandler films. How the heck did critics give it a 10%?

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

“Light and goofy, but not much more” – 3/5 Grown Ups is an easy watch if you’re in the mood for some silly, feel-good comedy with a big-name cast. The jokes land here and there, but a lot of the humor feels recycled or a bit predictable. It’s the kind of movie you put on just to relax and not think too hard. There’s a warm vibe about friendship and family, but the story is pretty simple and doesn’t offer much depth. If you want a mindless laugh and some familiar faces, it works fine. Just don’t expect anything groundbreaking.
