A day-dreaming single guy works in a box factory, still pining over a crush he had in high school. He gets a reality sandwich square in the face when the girl shows up at a party and barely remembers him. Meanwhile his best friend, now married, advises him to give up the fantasies and get real: they're adults now.

Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times [Jaleel] White is adequate, and some inventive bits and flashbacks here hint at promise. But these slender moments, instead of allowed to breath independently, are obliterated by an offensively blaring laugh track. Jun 27, 2019 Full Review Michele Greppi New York Post "Grown Ups" doesn't live up to its title, in spite of sticking a toe in the shallow end of what has become a sea of smutcoms. Jun 27, 2019 Full Review Hal Boedeker Orlando Sentinel Rather than striving for sophisticated humor, Grown Ups settles for far less: stereotypes and bad sex comedy. Jun 27, 2019 Full Review Tom Gliatto People Magazine It's a completely routine ensemble comedy. Jun 27, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
