The death of their childhood basketball coach leads to a reunion for some old friends (Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock), who gather at the site of a championship celebration years earlier. Picking up where they left off, the buddies -- with wives and children in tow -- discover why age does not, necessarily, equal maturity.

Critics Consensus

Grown Ups' cast of comedy vets is amiable, but they're let down by flat direction and the scattershot, lowbrow humor of a stunted script.

Granted, Sandler's script has one or two laughs, but it's mostly excruciating and lacks the self-mockery of, say, a Judd Apatow movie.

Despite some passable gags and a whole posse of middle-aged funnymen, Denis Dugan's comedy is about the least grown-up movie you could see.

Sandler's abysmal script cooks up a bite-sized moral for the finale. Groan ups, more like.

Adam Sandler’s worst movie? Little Nicky and Jack and Jill are among the contenders, and so is Grown Ups.

Lazy and inept as comedies get, Grown Ups features a plethora of talented stars doing very little to entertain us.

It was a mistake watching this movie. The humor was vulgar and extremely unfunny. It was genuinely one of the worst films I've ever seen. I'm definitely going to stick to more family-oriented comedies.

Grown ups is my comfort movie, even though it’s an Hour and a half of middle aged guys complaining about how stuff was better when they were better. It’s funny

There’s not even an attempt to make a plot. No semblance of a story at all. So the jokes better be good….oh. Absolutely atrocious. Watched on Amazon Prime.

One of the best comedies I've ever seen. One of the best 4th of July movies created. Adam Sandler is a genius
