A lazy law school grad (Adam Sandler) adopts a kid to impress his girlfriend, but everything does not go as planned and he becomes the unlikely foster father.
Someone at Netflix thinks I like Adam Sandler. Beyond their own film (Ridiculous 6), they have recommended this one and "50 First Dates" and even "8 Crazy Nights". For some reason, I have been caving in a little bit... but I do not plan to watch a Hanukkah movie in February. Sorry, Netflix.
As with "50 First Dates", it turns out that I was pleasantly surprised... this humor is not crude. A bit juvenile at times, but not overly so. We see an Adam Sandler who genuinely cares for other people. These are not the comedies that made him famous like "Billy Madison" and "happy Gilmore", but are still well worth appreciating in their own right. Plus, Joey Lauren Adams never made a bad movie.
