Disappointed

I've never cared for Adam Sandler but have always been surprised at how much I enjoy his movies. Unfortunately this one did not meet that expectation. With such a great cast of comedians the movie was not nearly as funny as I thought it would be. Everyone seemed to take turns getting a punch line in - too scripted, too timed. The plot of the movie was not very clear- what was the point? Just a bunch of families coming together after a funeral and having fun for a few days....uh - not very exciting. There was no hype about the "big game" or anything else..everything just seemed to happen. I was so glad when the movie was over - I really didn't want to be rude or waste my money by leaving early. I also kept hoping it might turn around and get funnier/better.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

The movie was excellent - I would see it again and I plan to read the book version. In the movie I think they could have conveyed a little more about the importance of "the book". But anyone that understands the power of the bible could conclude why it would be instrumental to a re-newed or revived nation. Denzel did an excellent job and looked great. The twists were amazing and I enjoyed putting all the pieces together. Very interesting perspective on what would happen if the world came to such a state of ruin.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
