$1.00 probably, but definitely not $1.25.

Be a man, watch the office, the league, always sunny, and catch some of the football game.

Honestly I hate watching tv shows but I am definitely leaning towards this option, plus I have both ray rice and turner on my ff team

Huge Sandler fan, but wanted to turn this movie off after 30 minutes.

I consider myself a pretty big Adam Sandler fan even though the last few years his movies haven't been nearly as good. This one was the absolute worst by far though. I hated it.

TD saved me from renting this. Was unsure about it and have put aside seeing Funny People also. If only Sandler would do something funny again.

Yeah, Funny People was pretty crappy too but no where near as bad as Grown Ups. Even Chuck & Larry and Zohan weren't great but had a few laughs. I think I maybe laughed once or twice during Grown Ups and even that was stuff I'd already seen in the trailers.

I found Zohan to be passable but I went in ready to hate it and it was just so retarded at points I had to crack a smile.

I enjoyed Funny People. I'm into comedians and the life they lead and it was cool to see a behind the scenes look at part of a successful and rookie comedians life. I didn't go into expecting a Big Daddy type comedy though. It's all about expectations I guess.

That being said, no matter what you expect, Grown Ups is a shite sandwich.

same. Seems like people just go in hating Adam Sandler movies just because now. I let this board scare me from a lot of shite, Zohan ended up being one of my favorite Sandler movies ever. Grown Ups isn't the most terrible movie ever, it certainly beats a lot of chick flick options the OP could be forced to watch.

Thanks guys. I told her it was sold out of all the red boxes in BR and went and got drunk at Schiltz and giggles. Feel like I made the right choice due to the movie board expertise
