The Wrong Missy

Someone said this could have been another Adam Sandler movie. Well one of his "comedies" that is. That is not entirely untrue and there is more than just some merit to it. What is one major difference though: the female lead. While David Spade is the main character, she is stealing the show. Now as annoying as I think she is, as not attracted to that character I am (love the actress for sure), she is winning everyone over.

And yes it is obvious and predictable where this is going. With all the hurdles and issues visible miles away. Some jokes are too extreme/gnarly and I almost want to not like the movie because of them ... but it's just too loveable. With cameos to boost and insanity to be released. But as I said: it's the female "co-lead" that makes this what it is ... very fine perfomance indeed

Not every movie is supossed to be Amarcord, casablanca or even young frankenstein. It's not a sin to enjoy a simple movie, to stop the stress fron reality, to take a detour from the horrible things going on in today's world. You're wathching a Happy Madison production, with Sandler's friends, a simple plot and yes, a 50 something year old men dating a 35 year old woman. But i really don't understand the hate; when i want emotion i see Cinema Paradiso. When i want to be really scared , i see the exorcist.... Today, i really wanted to scape, be relaxed, and maybe have one or two laughs.

I disagree with those who said: ''she's so cringe, he's so flat, the script is non existant'' (the latter being truth). Missy as a role is supossed to be unnerving, and the moments of surprising normality from her.....well i can honestly say that i've met people like that, annoying and good persons almost at the same time.

It's not a great movie, but i can honestly say, i'had some fun. And the time flew really quick,

Judge some movies for what it is, not from what is suppossed to be.

This is a typical comedy that will divide people, some will love it and others will hate it. You can count me in the ones that had a really good time watching this movie. I wanted to watch a funny movie and that's exactly what I got. There are plenty of hilarious moments, maybe annoying to some but who cares? If you don't like it after five minutes just stop watching it because the rest of the movie will be the same kind of humor. I thought the chemistry between David Spade and Lauren Lapkus worked perfectly. Rob Schneider and Nick Swardson also added to the comedy, it was just a good mix of comedians. People bashing Lauren Lapkus because she was annoying just don't get it, that's exactly the role she had, to annoy as much people as possible, so I would say very good job doing that. Do I think she was annoying? Definitely, I wouldn't want to know a woman like that in my personal life, but it's a movie so wake up and stop bitching. The story is lighthearted, nothing too serious, just funny, dumb and sometimes vulgar humor, so what? I wish there were more comedies like this one.

Look, some movies just make me feel things, regardless how terrible they are. I loved myself stupid at one quote and can't help by find myself weirdly attracted to Missy.

Adam Sandler's movies are dreadful, we all know it. Doesn't matter when it was made, it's dreadful.

But theyre FUNNY!

Ok a few of them were just plain dreadful AND unfunny (I'm looking at you, Jack n Jill) but come on, some are timeless classics. This isn't one of them, but it's great fun. It's fun to feel intellectually superior to whoever was behind making it and it's fun to catch an unexpected moment that turned out to be 10x funnier than the entire rest of the movie collectively.

It's stupid, it's corny, it's absurd, it's fun Happy Madison.

Laughed out loud at this close to the knuckles comedy.

The set up has been done before but there are some genuinely hillariois moments that caught me off guard in a film I started watching with low expectations .

It's funny in a juvenile kind of way ,give it a chance.
