As with most of Sandler’s recent work, the story has a sweet and heartfelt tone and ending. It’s not really out of place here, but it also doesn’t exactly feel earned or authentic.

FANATICAL ABOUT FILM!
Movies are our religion and the theater our church. Our gods are named Tarantino, Anderson and Scorsese.
We attend services 3-4 times a week and take our communion in the form of soda and popcorn. We offer up these reviews in hopes of pleasing our deities.
Please share your own comments on our reviews. We encourage all forms of respectful debate. We are, after all, “Fanatical About Film”!

“How to Be a Latin Lover”
By no means will this become a cult comedy classic, but it’s an amusing diversion that’s much better than it should be.
DVD Roundup: May
Check out this month’s latest DVD releases.
“Grow House”
“Grow House” isn’t a game changer for the genre, nor is it one of the better stoner classics, but it earns a respectable place among other late night pothead films.
“Born in China”
As with all DisneyNature documentaries, “Born in China” has astonishing, impressive camerawork that will at times leave you breathless and in tears from the chills of the sheer beauty of it all.
“Free Fire”
Wheatley does bring some heavy ammunition, but his film fails to measure up as either an action tour de force, genre thriller, or a commentary on gun culture.
