Great performances. I prefer the silly Sandler movies, but this is a good movie and a good watch. See more Horror fan 4 Aug 5 A great retelling of the classic Burt Reynolds movie. Sandler brings all the laughs and great characters. Tim Treakle See more jhesua d Jul 23 It's a very good movie, the cast complements each other a lot and together they create a good plot, I recommend it.

Quick setup, moves fast, and the humor is pretty good actually. It's typical Sandler stuff but it's done well. Nothing clever or deep but heck neither was the original either. The soundtrack is great and easily the best improvement from the original. But on the flip side nothing else I'd say is done as good as the original. Everything else is half decent though and the direction isn't bad. This has higher production value to it I'd say than a typical Sandler comedy and has a color saturation look to it a bit which I liked. Chris Rock is great also and the best character in this. The story is pretty much exactly the same as the original with no real changes besides Sandler humor. so much so that I don't really see how it justifies existing beyond Sandler fans who haven't seen or aren't aware of the original. Sandler isn't bad but Reynolds was better as Paul. It feels like Sandler is just being himself and lacks Reynolds charisma. Oddly enough Reynolds in this is....alright I guess. He feels like an afterthought and besides paying homage I don't get why he is here. His character really doesn't add much that couldn't have been done with Rock's. This also focuses more on building the team and gags. It starts to wear itself off a bit as it drags a bit assembling the team and getting repetitive a bit adding forgettable characters. The game itself isn't bad but again it's more gags than the original during this part. But I will say it is easier to follow signifcantly than the original in that regard too. But the tradeoff comes from more gags where the originalw as much more serious at this point. I think beyond Sandler fans, most would like the 74' one better. While that isn't a masterpiece it's overall more consistent and has more charm despite the humor maybe not landing as well. Most could skip this though. Not the worst Sandler comedy though and defintely one of his better 00's ones. See more Read all reviews
