Adam Sandler is a man of extremes.
When his movies are good (The Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates), they are very, very good. And when they are bad (Little Nicky, Jack and Jill, That’s My Boy)…
They’re horrible.
Me thinks Sandler has been looking at his filmography and noticed a common thread running through his very best films — Drew Barrymore. Could that be why he’s starring in and co-producing a new film with her?
The Hollywood Reporter says yes!
In the rumored film, the two portray single parents who had a bad first date, but soon after are trapped together at a vacation resort with their kids. Hilarity ensues.
I loved The Wedding Singer. It’s my very favorite Adam Sandler film. And I just re-watched 50 First Dates last weekend and laughed myself silly when Drew Barrymore — to protect Sandler — beats the crap out of Rob Schneider with a baseball bat.
Good times.
Both films made big bucks at the box office, so I know I’m not the only one who loves this duo. Let’s get excited!!
But, seriously…
I spent my Friday afternoon at the movies. Today’s feature:
The Place Beyond the Pines
Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes look kinda depressed, don’t they?
I was pretty low after the film was over, and I only had to watch it — I can only imagine how they must have felt living that story.
It’s a downer, no lie. And it’s violent. Plus, Ryan Gosling is only in the first third of the movie — I cry foul! Thank goodness Bradley Cooper was there to pick up the slack.
That’s the positive hing tabout the movie. Wonderful actors, moving performances. But grim. The previews were dark and violent, too.
If you go, be sure to get candy for moral support.
