“From the Producers of Just Go With It and Grown Ups” are not words you want to hear from any trailer. What you want to hear is that all concerned with said projects have been strapped to a chair and made to watch Magnolia, Chinatown and Memento until they understand what a proper film looks like, not that they have been let loose again.
But, as I am constantly reminding my children, we don’t always get what we want. What I’m not sure anyone wants though, is Adam Sandler playing himself and his twin sister in the same film. She (Jill) turns up to stay with him (Jack) for a few days and something that was presumably described during a pitch meeting as “shenanigans” ensue. What should have been described as likely to ensue is brain damage for any viewing audience.
You can watch the trailer below, you can go and see the film when it comes out, but if it makes $100m at the box office we only have ourselves to blame.
