Adam Sandler and his comedy chums come together for Grown Ups.
But is this mini-Saturday Night Live reunion worth a look?
Theres actually not a whole lot to say aboutGrown Ups.
I mean, its pretty self-explanatory.
The draw ofGrown Upsisnt the story (this isntThe Hangover, after all), but the stars.
Theres alsoHappy Madisonveteran Kevin James filling out the roster, no doubt as the Chris Farley replacement.
Basically, youre already on board with this movie, or youre kind of resistant.
Strangely enough, its actually not bad.

The film moves along fairly nicely, thanks to direction from industry veteran Dennis Dugan.
It starts, you laugh, and its gone.
You really cant ask for much more than that from a big summer comedy sold on star power.
Grown Upsdoesnt break any new ground, but it is funny.
All you have to do is let them be funny and keep the camera from falling over.
Hooray for slight improvements!
