You may not like what I have to say, but Just Go With It

Just Go With It features Danny Maccabee (Sandler), one of the best plastic surgeons in the country, as he is forced to give up his Wedding Ring plan (get women to sleep with him because he is unhappily married to a woman who cheats on and beats him) after his new love, Palmer (Decker), calls him out on it and  refuses to see him again until he is divorced. Maccabee must call on his assistant, Katherine Murphy (Aniston), and her kids to help keep Maccabee's lies together. The only question is, what will Danny do when the truth finally comes out?






There isn't a lot to say about this movie because if you've seen one Adam Sandler movie, you've seen them all. There is a lot of "body" humor (most of which is immature and almost only funny to little boys), at least one "kick to the groin" moment, and some sort of anger / impatient problem -- especially in regards towards children. And then comes the big finish. Sandler acts like a jerk the whole movie, but then miraculously redeems himself to everyone. Then we all live happily ever after. Huzzah.








. . .yeah . . . no. Not feeling it. Life just doesn't work like that.

But if Sandler thinks it can be done, fine with me.






Also . . . Nicole Kidman is in this movie. How did I miss that from the last time I saw the film? I guess she's just that forgettable in this movie.
