Blended (2014)
Directed by Frank
Coraci this film stars Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Terry Crews and
Bella Thorne. Two single parents have a terrible first date then find
themselves stuck on a holiday in Africa together with each other's
children in tow.
One thing you can say
about Adam Sandler is that at least he is consistent, it's low brow
humour all the way here even when something more subtle would have
worked better. The plot never fails to feel contrived and the humour
over acted, about the only question here is if you will find the film
offensive or not. In it's favour there are a handful of funny moments
but the depictions of gender and Africans are more than questionable
for most of the film.
1/5
