Keeping up with the past

Brought back together by the death of their favourite college basketball coach, ex-buddies Lenny (Sandler), Eric (James), Kurt (Rock), Marcus (Spade), and Rob (Schneider) try to rekindle their childhood bonds. However, their wives and children soon find out new things about of their big daddies’ romps and fantasies which put them in an awkward position. Will the guys be able to take grown up decisions to keep up with their love ones this time?

If you go by the trailer ‘Grown Ups’ will be a big disappointment considering a big cast of who’s who in comedy. The script is also fomulaic where you have nothing new to laugh about. With too many scenes already seen in some films only reminds you how you miss of the good old comedies.

Even as the cast share a good onscreen rapport they lacked that spark to make the film shine. ‘Grown Ups’ is sexily flavoured extravaganza where women are stereotyped with a dose of chauvinistic jokes.

Despite these there are some good moments about childhood and young adolescent jokes. Overall, ‘Grown Ups’ needs to grow a bit more mature.
