SOME GUYS NEED A LITTLE EXTRA TIME TO MATURE.

Five childhood buddies (Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade, Rob Schneider) reunite for their basketball coach’s funeral… and spend a tumultuous Fourth of July weekend with their wives and kids in a rented house. The Big Chill for the Sandler generation? As expected, all we get out of it is cheap jokes delivered by a cast of second-rate movie stars who all fail to find the right tone or a reason for us to care for them. Worth a few giggles though, and the women are a positive counterweight when the guys are at their most predictable.
