Bad Movie Beatdown2009

Film Brain:
There's one word to describe Grown Ups: lazy. Lazy, lazy, lazy. The jokes are staggeringly lame and sub-sitcom which is astonishing when you get five comedians together, and even more astonishingly, completely bland. There's so many characters that nobody really gets to play a character, the theme of death is almost completely ignored by the halfway point, and all the gags are repeated even when they weren't funny in the first place. It has no narrative drive, and hardly any direction, so it's a sluggish bore that feels like three hours. It feels like the actors were on paid holiday, laughing at each other, and we're not invited on the fun.
