I am one of the biggest Sandler apologists you will find, but this film was just not very funny, even when compared to the first film. If you saw the trailer, then you pretty much saw the funniest parts of the film condensed into 2 minutes and 30 seconds. It kind of bummed me out that Rob Schneider was not a part of this film, especially since this film is just basically Sandler and his best friends getting paid loads of money to goof off. I love all of the rotating actors he features in his films, but this might be the first film where he actually tried to cram every single one of them into the picture (except of course Schneider), and it definitely gave it a bloated vibe with everyone just waiting their turn to say something stupid and wink into the camera. Not very funny, not at all inspired, and basically just kind of a drag when you walk out realizing you wasted good money and time to see everyone just phone it in for an easy pay day.
