Jamie Harper- summer task 2

2. My favourite film of the summer 2014 was Grown-ups 2. Grown-ups 2 is a comedy film and is a sequel to Grown-ups. The main characters are Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Kevin James and David Spade.

One of the key aspects of the film is when David Spade’s 16 year old son comes to their town to visit him. This is the first time David has seen his son and his son instantly hates him because he left his mum. In one part of the film David tells his son he can’t pick him up from school because he is helping out at the soup kitchen but in reality he is hanging out with his mates and his son sees them jumping from a cliff into a river so decides to slash his dads tyres on his truck.

Another key aspect of the film is when Adam Sandler decides to throw a huge house party and invites all of his mates and pretty much everyone from town. Just before the party Adam’s wife decides to tell him that she is pregnant and at first he is quite disappointed and a little sad but eventually he quite likes that she is. As the party is close to finishing, about 100 college kids gate crash the party and demand all the older people who are at the party for a fight and in the end there is one huge massive fight that brings all the older ones closer together though.

Another key aspect of the film is when Adam decides to take over the school bus run, along the way he picks up all his friends and when they are approaching school he saves son from getting hit by the biggest kid on the bus as his son sticks up for a girl he likes a lot. When they were finished with the school run they decide to go to the wall mart and bump in to members of their rival gang rom grown-ups 1, but then Adam realises that he is going to be late for his daughters dance show, so manages to get a police escort from two police officers that he knows and they manage to make the dance show in time. At the end of the show when Adam goes to get his daughter he bumps into the dance instructor’s boyfriend who happened to be his bully from when he went school.

I really enjoy this film because it’s classed as a comedy and personally comedies are my favourite type of film. Adam Sandler is probably my favourite actor of all time as I think him such a hilarious character and never fails to make me laugh and in Grown-Ups 2 it’s no different. I think the whole film in general is just really funny and the characters in the film are so great and really do get you laughing. There really isn’t much of a plot to the film but I like that there isn’t as I think it works with the way it’s been wrote, as its just one funny scene after another and that is why it is my favourite film of 2014!
