Anyone else extremely disappointed?  Rob Scheiders character was mildly amusing with his daughters but the rest kinda fell flat. Maybe because its supposed to be a family movie?  I don't know. What did everyone else think?

I'd say 2 stars outta 4

His movies are way too sensitive for me.  But, I like comedies and I laughed a lot in this movie.  I would watch it maybe one more time and that's it.

Very disappointed.  Didn't seem like there was much a story, just a bunch of guys that reunite after years and hang out.  No build up to a climax, therefore no resolution.  Just a happy feel good movie with no point.  This coming from a fan of Sandler movies.

I felt pretty much exactly the same way.  The movie kind of reminded me of an SNL skit where a bunch of former co-workers just get together and tell jokes.  It was fun and fairly funny but not over the top outragous.  BOL!

It was hilarious...40-something guys spending a weekend together and busting each other's stones to the nth degree....Not watching a comedy for resolutions, etc...Make me laugh my ass off and this did..

They tried to hard on the jokes, especially the black lady, not funny at all.

I thought it was good not great. I thought the jokes were a little mickey mouse, but since it was a family movie i wont be too harsh on it, after all i did go see it with family, i will say this though adam sandler is one of the most overrated out there.

I was extremly disapointed. I found it very long as well.

Its the third straight Kevin James movie that is horrible. I'm affraid to see the Dilemma.
