The film's direction was unexpected. a combination of comedy and a dash of drama, the elements worked well, given the cast, the fresh splash of surprise of a family narrative, a message of good friends, values and good times.
It did not strive desperately for a skit like format to all the scenes, which has its own advantage, it unravelled naturally and spontaneously.
The conflict of the movie was produced when friends accidentally unite and share old times and decide to take a vacation together and then sandlers[lenny feder] wife played by salma hayek wanted to upstage and snub/disrupt the well grounded and equal reunion by taking a trip to milan for a fashion show.
The beauty of the film is that it takes its time anchoring the audience in the scenery backdrop of the vacation as if we participate in it. the attraction for the audience is clearly, the audience relates to this this and would love to be there.
we would love to meet old friends of whom we spent our childhood with and go to a waterworld and act like kids again.
The message of the film is simplicity. no computer games, no pompy pedal stools and fancy breakfasts in fancy resorts as we witness with sandlers kids who were so accustomed to the high life, that they could not adapt to the vacation.
The film still had the skit essential treasure trove and comedy was interwoven nicely within the screenplay of the film, while directing the audience the more important and serious message of the film, about friends in need and friends as equal and not hiding behind their work.
in a finale a basketball game is played and the director flashbacked to when they were young and i have to say it was emotional. they did not win as we would expect, but the message is clear, no matter what they go through, the most important win is that they are together.
It was great to see rob schneider playing a alternative trendy and steve buscerni whom we would like to see play organic hang out inspirational roles. like ghost town.
Despite the film not living the expectation of all out comedy reminiscent of the cast, the movie more than compensated for this and achieved a organic and natural fun family feel good feel, filled with out takes of drama that has a merit and accolade on its own accord.
good message and content rates highly, comedy skits rate highly, while the general feel was targeted to grown ups who despite being indulged and satisfied by the adequate comic moments, are filled with the satisfaction of a drama narrative reminiscent of stand by men where we reflect back to childhood and wonder what life was all about. which is a bit of trademark and hallamrk of sandler films who relates to child like fun and outgoing behaviour. The film was a fresh change to many other comedy films and worth a watch to this cynic i am who prefers to youtubing documentaries than watch bland and predictable scripts. The film is a 4 out of 5.
the film had no real drop of conflict it was dispersed throughout the film. it did not delve into an all out family drama as it had to accommodate for the interlay and comedy elements nicely interlaced.
