Sinopsis(1)
Después de una desastrosa cita a ciegas, los padres solteros Lauren (Barrymorte) y Jim (Sandler) se muestran de acuerdo en una sola cosa: no desean volver a verse nunca más. Pero cuando contratan, cada uno por su lado, unas fabulosas vacaciones familiares con sus hijos, se encuentran destinados sin remedio a compartir durante una semana una suite en un lujoso resort africano dedicado a los safaris. (Warner Bros. España)

Mi saldo negativo con Adam Sandler, desafortunadamente, continúa. Me apena enormemente y no lo entiendo. ¿Me reía de cosas diferentes hace quince años de las que me río ahora? ¿O a partir de cierto punto, las cosas realmente van cuesta abajo con Adam? Todavía tengo algunos de sus otros trabajos en mi lista, pero el temor a otro fracaso crece cada vez más en mí. Este proyecto fue una mezcla estadounidense de principio a fin, hasta me dieron ganas de vomitar en algunos momentos. Tal vez estoy un poco alérgico a los típicos y predecibles clichés estadounidenses: un grupo de minorías cantantes (cualquier tipo, aquí amplificado por el tipo del anuncio de Old Spice) y adolescentes molestos que aparecen constantemente en la trama, aplausos, discursos sobre ser uno mismo, el mejor amigo/amiga loco/a, una tonta rubia siliconada llena de amor, y así sucesivamente.

The comedies of Adam Sandler have this strange tinge of originality. On the one hand, they can provide some excellent entertainment, but at times, they contain so many references to pop-culture that without knowing anything about it, you will be completely lost. If you are not well-read in American pop culture, many of the jokes will be lost on you. And the problem with Blended is that the humor is all based on pop-cultural references and if my girlfriend hadn’t told me that one scene is a reference to Kardashian, I would have simply thought it was a very embarrassing moment. And I actually experienced quite a lot of those in the film. I mean it took me forever to understand that the entire African band headed by Crews is actually a brutal reference to an Old Spice commercial. It really hasn’t happened to me in a really long time that I wouldn’t know what review to give to a movie, let alone a comedy. Blended contains the laid-back atmosphere of Adam Sandler’s movies, but on the other hand the movie contains so many unfunny moments and lines that I spent more time shaking my head in disbelief than I did laughing. And that’s actually saying something because I laughed pretty hard a couple of times. For instance, that idea with Africa is really nice. It’s actually the reason why the movie is so pleasant to watch. But the depiction of Africa is so wacky that it makes Americans look like superhumans who are willing to spend loads of money on absolute absurdities. The best moment was for instance when the people riding jeeps on safari drove directly next to the lions to take a close look at them. And not only lions.

A decent movie enriched by the African setting. Quite a few jokes from Adam Sandler, the only funny one here is Terry Crews with his dance group. It's entertaining, there are likeable actors, but unless I laugh at least every 10 minutes at a comedy, I can't go for 4*. 65%.

It's quite noticeable that Adam Sandler is aging, and his face looks tired in places, but his pairing with Drew Barrymore still works. Those two simply click in movies. It's not funny all the way through - there are quiet, romantic moments, but the two of them save it, along with the classic Sandler-esque characters, of which there are plenty.

I can't seem to get into comedies starring Adam Sandler. In the first half of this farce, I was almost sinking in embarrassment at the awkwardness of some situations. Then I got used to it and sometimes I even laughed heartily. What I did like was primarily the African passage, where I could admire at least the beautiful nature, when the humor was scarce. (55%)
