Just Go With It (2011)

**
Although i'm a fan of Sandler's earlier efforts like Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer, Big Daddy, The Waterboy and a few others, i'm well aware that every now and again he does a Billy Maddison, Mr. Deeds and Grown Ups. So I proceeded with caution on this one, that's probably because i'm a bit of a Jennifer Aniston fan. Not so much a fan, it's just that her films have a certain appeal for me, The Break Up being a perfect example.

This is a good Sandler movie, along the lines of 50 First Dates good. Aniston is great and Sandler is Sandler. The cameo of Kidman was a bit of a strange one for me, it literally came right out of the blue having heard nothing beforehand. How the hell did she get on board? Is there another Writers Guild strike?

Funny in parts without being hilarious, it's a great film for a Saturday night in.
