Watch this if you liked: "50 First Dates", "The Wedding Singer" & "Just Go With It"

The Good, the Bad and the Blended: After the onslaught of bad Adam Sandler films ("Jack and Jill", "That's My Boy" and "You Don't Mess With The Zohan") "Blended" is like fresh blend of Sandler's movies, "50 First Dates", "The Wedding Singer" and "Just Go With It" mushed into one thoroughly entertaining Happy Madison produced film! The first 20 minutes or so of the film can be a drag, but once Sandler and Drew Barrymore take their on-screen kids to the dazzling Sun City, South Africa, that's when the comedy truly begins. The pairing of Sandler and Barrymore once again is an absolute delight to watch and it's like they never left off with their chemistry charm since "50 First Dates". Viewers will wait for every time Terry Crews as the resorts' singing group leader pops in the story with his colourful costumes and equally as colourful expressions that will leave viewers rolling with laughter in their seats. Delightfully, every character of the film, including the children of single parents Sandler and Barrymore serves a purpose to the story. If you never wanted to go to Africa before, well after watching "Blended" you will!

Look Out For: A special cameo from one of the characters in "50 First Dates".

Trivia: Adam Sandler revealed in a recent interview with Jimmy Kimmel that his movies, including "Blended" were excuses to take 'paid vacations' in exotic locations like Hawaii with "50 First Dates" and "Just Go With It".

Best Watched With: A fun entertaining film for the whole family to enjoy.
