Lá Vêm os Pais

I wouldn't call myself an Adam Sandler fan, especially after his stereotypical Netflix flick about Native Americans and his annoying childish humor. But I found this movie to be relatable and funny because, really who hasn't stressed out when the whole family comes over for a celebration! It was hectic, in a good way and I'm glad people were chill in the movie. It couldn't easily gone south, but it was endearing and a funny slapstick comedy! C'mon can't go wrong with that!

Personally, The Week Of is a movie about growing up for adults, incidentally, it's one of Sandler's more mature-themed films. It's a very heartfelt movie that revolves more around the event of a marriage than having a dramatic story, despite this, the many crazy shenanigans common in the Sandlerverse are still present but they are entirely realistic. Chris Rock and Adam Sandler seemingly fall into their roles and feel like real people (most of the time) and the cinematography captures the chaos of a wedding in near dizzying perfection. It's a fun, loving film for fathers and almost everywhere.

Having come across this film in need of a light afternoon watch, I watched the film with the expectation of cheesy, lighthearted comedy with some generic moral to the story; I wasn't too far off. However, I was incredibly surprised by how much I found myself laughing! The script in my opinion was terrifically written and there were some very relatable and convincing character performances.

I am quite disappointed by the mass of poor reviews for this film, no it is not a classic nor is it the most witty but it is a very fun, lighthearted, and warm watch. After all, what would you expect from a film that stars Adam Sandler and Chris Rock!

In my humble opinion, well worth a watch for a lazy afternoon.

Yes, this movie is no great writing blockbuster but it is what it is supposed to be. A whole hearted funny Adam sander movie that will make you laugh and feel good at the end. People need to stop thinking they are professional movie critics and just have a few laughs for a couple hours. Lighten up people!

Very realistic with a few funny moments. Overall it was stressful to watch. I felt as if I was put in an acquired situation for over an hour and couldn't get out, but tried to pretend everything was ok. It's not the worse movie, but far from the best. Try to watch it if you can. Just go in with zero expectations and try to have a good time.
