Urlaubsreif: Directed by Frank Coraci. With Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Kevin Nealon, Terry Crews. After a bad blind date, a man and woman find themselves stuck together at a resort for families, where their attraction grows as their respective kids benefit from the burgeoning relationship.

“If youu0026#39;re looking for the Sandler of 15 years ago, or the scoop of septic that the current comedic u0026quot;geniusesu0026quot; have to offer (Rogen, Attepow, etc.,) then stay home and watch for umpteenth time the u0026quot;hilariousu0026quot; back and forth between Franco and Seth in This Is Then End.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor Blended is reasonable, and funny and OK for older kids, as some of them are facing the same issues that the kids portrayed here are. Adam plays a widow, Drew a divorcée, just working and trying to raise their kids the best way they know how. Meeting for the first time on a blind date, they manage to say and do as much as they can to turn off the other, not that are bad people, but more that they are so unsure of themselves after being on their own so long. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYeah the logic is more pretzelian than real, they find themselves on the same African Safari vacation that Sandleru0026#39;s boss had set up for himself and Drewu0026#39;s business partner. Thrown together, the two adult characters put forth their best efforts to make the vacation work for their kids and end up making it work for each other.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere is some mildly crude humor, but a lot of it is gentle fun, some of it predictable, some laugh out loud funny.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy family agreed that that crazy fool Terry Crews stole the show! And the rest of the theater agreed, because as soon as his face flashed on the screen everyone started laughing before he had even started one of several hilarious routines, sort of playing like the Greek chorus. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGranted, itu0026#39;s not a 10, but it is way better than the 5 that is currently showing. I give it a 7.”
