Movie Info
The all-star comedy cast from Grown Ups returns (with some exciting new additions) for more summertime laughs. Lenny (Adam Sandler) has relocated his family back to the small town where he and his friends grew up. This time around, the grown ups are the ones learning lessons from their kids on a day notoriously full of surprises: the last day of school. (c) Sony

Grown Ups 2 Trailer & Photos
All Critics (93) | Top Critics (23) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (86)
This is pap, plain and simple: scattered raunch-lite devoid of emotional resonance.
A movie of fools, by fools, for fools.
Friendship, family and breasts: Sometimes that's all you need.
When Taylor Lautner is the funniest thing in a movie starring Adam Sandler and Chris Rock, we're in trouble.
The fact that some moments are genuinely laugh-out-loud funny almost makes the whole endeavor sadder.
The movie lurches from one gross-out scene to another, flipping the bird at continuity and logic. It honestly seems as if Sandler and his team descended on a random suburb, halfheartedly improvising and moving on when they got bored.
The leads dampen the delivery with a noticeable lack of energy. It's telling when the most charismatic comedic performance comes from Taylor Lautner...
Adam Sandler's follow-up to one of the most improbable blockbuster comedy hits in film history - Grown Ups took $270m in 2010 - is a similarly plotless, reasonably pleasant, rough-edged comic ramble.
This is not a movie. This is nothing but Adam Sandler hanging out with his pals and congratulating himself on how awesome he finds himself to be.
There was nothing remotely notable about 2010's Grown Ups, and now we have a sequel that's even lazier.
Somehow, the word 'sequel' doesn't fit: it would be like describing three months of agonising spinal surgery as the sequel to falling off a cliff.
As disposable and forgettable as its 2010 predecessor...
It's easy to be critical of films which have no aim other than to entertain, but if you're half way to Sandler's juvenile, rather sexist mentality you will find more comedy highlights than you'll be expecting.
No human being possesses the imaginative power to sufficiently lower his or her expectations to anticipate the sheer laziness of this putrid ensemble comedy.
Unsuitable for all ages.
This Happy Madison remedial-school version of 'This Is 40' is as insane and dumbfounding and worthy of WTF mock-cult status as 'The Room' or 'Manos, Hands of Fate,' even if it did earn $42 million its first weekend.
The simplest way to put it is that if you liked the first Grown Ups, you will also like this one: it's an equally shameless, just-as shoddy, no-less depressing sprawl of 'life lessons' and fat gags.
The script feels aimless and desperate, even by its own aggressively sophomoric standards.
Sandler and his pals are in the enviable position of having the muscle to do their thing for fun and profit.
The Land of Lazy can crown a new king because with Grown Ups 2 Adam Sandler has officially nabbed the throne.
Adam Sandler has made some warm and funny movies but this one is a mess from start to finish.
It's plotless, pointless, soulless, but worse than all of those things.... it's just NOT FUNNY!!!
Full of coarse excuses for humor and cruelty, 'Grown Ups 2' literally spews bile at its audience.
Clearly this is the film to see if you have a long standing grievance about the way deer have been mistreated by humans and long to see them take their revenge.
one long, smug, self-satisfied smirk at the audience
Just when it seemed like it couldn't get any worse for Adam Sandler, Grown Ups 2 underperforms its predecessor in every way imaginable.

P.S. Shaquille O'Neal is a lousy actor but he really knows how to make people laugh.
