There is a lot of b-roll and fat that can be cut out of this film. I feel like they used extra stock film just to make the movie a longer movie. It doesn't make it better it only makes it slow and boring. The close-ups are way to close. It feels awkward and not intimate at all, which I feel is the way they wanted to pursue those shots.

The start of the movie is very confusing. You don't really get introduced to the characters, you just see them. You don't know who they are or why you are looking at them. I also don't like the main actress, Olivia Thirlby. Her character is very bland.

I would like to know more about Peter, who John Krasinski plays, and why it is so easy for him to cheat on his wife. John Krasinski is the only reason why I started to watch this film. I think he is a good actor and he does perform good in this film. I wish I would see more of him in newer films.

You also never find out why Kolt, who India Ennenga plays, is learning how to speak Italian.

Can you tell that I needed the help of the internet to define how I feel after watching this movie? First of all, I don't like Adam Sandler, secondly, the dialogue was horrid. I hated how everything just lined up like the person writing the script didn't even try. So many clichés! Yes, there target audience was probably mostly kids, and you can see some humor for the parents. That doesn't give film producers an excuse. Modern movies that target children should be 100% of their potential not just for making money. Most modern movies for adults are terrible, so I guess I should stop trying.

A message to Chris Columbus,

I liked The Goonies, Gremlins, Rent, and Harry Potter. I am not a fan of this thing that you call a movie. You have really let yourself go man.
