The Do-Over (2016)

You Hurt Me, Netflix. I Thought We Were Mates?
2 June 2016
Two down, two to go in Netflix's four-movie deal with Adam Sandler *sigh* *while looking out the bedroom window pondering the demise of the human species*.

Other people have described this film as "blergh" and "mehhh" and yes, if they were words in the English dictionary, I'd probably say they are spot-on descriptions. However, my best effort is: it's a cold piece of buttered toast.

You're just so used to this basic, bland piece of sh*t thing that you've been force fed from an early age, that you just vague out and consume it with that "it's getting the job done" mentality without a second thought.

Upon reflection though, Sandler and Spade just don't seem to care. Apart from the obvious answer of 'money', why would someone put their name to this movie? It's mediocre, there's no love in trying to make the viewer laugh and the five star rating Netflix give it on their platform is deceptive conduct at its finest.

Toast - watch Casino on Netflix instead next time.
