Grown Ups

 

Hey Everyone!!! 

I hope your 2025, is going well so far, I can’t believe we are half- way through February, My birthday Month will be here soon March!!

 I’m so excited!

Today I have decided to write about one of my favorite comedy movies, starring the Great Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James, Salma Hayek, Rob Schneider, Maya Rudolph, China Anne McClain and Cameron Boyce.

The movie starts off in 1978 childhood friends Lenny Feder, Eric Lamonsoff, Marcus Higgins, Rob Hilliard win their basketball game championship.

They celebrate at a lake house with their coach Robert Buzzer Ferdinando, thirty years later Lenny is a wealthy and successful Hollywood Talent Agent, he is married to a fashion designer named Roxanne and he has three kids, Greg, Keith, and Becky.

Eric claims to co own a lawn furniture company and he also has two kids Donna and Bean, his wife is Sally, she still breastfeeds Bean, Kurt is a stay at home father, he has two kids Andre and Charlotte, he is expecting a third with his wife Deanne, and her mother Ronzoni lives with them.

 Marcus is a slacker, Rob is married to his fourth much older wife Gloria, the childhood friends basketball coach passes away and they go to his funeral in their hometown with their families.

Lenny rents a lake house for everyone to enjoy over the Fourth of July weekend, his family has to leave early Roxanne has a fashion show in Milan.

He encourages his boys to play outside and make some friends, Lenny runs into his childhood rival Dickie who claims Lenny’s foot was out of bounds, at their final basketball game, he’s been obsessed with getting a re match to rectify the perceived mistake.

The friends spread their coaches ashes and Rob reveals that he has invited his estranged daughters Jasmine, Amber and Bridget to visit, the guys then decide to play arrow roulette shooting it straight into the air, Rob wins because he doesn’t run for cover, the arrow impales his left foot and he snaps at his wife Gloria because of the pain, she rushes to his aid to help him feel better.

Lenny the next day finds the kids playing telephone with cups and strings, he sees the positive impact the weekend is having on the Kids and decides to stay.

 Roxanne cancels the Milan trip and they all stay at the lake. You will have to see the rest of the movie to find out what happens, it is a funny and interesting ending.

I decided to write about this movie because I like the story line and it talks about how you eventually have to grow up and become adults, and to enjoy your childhood as long as you can, because your childhood goes fast, and before you know you are starting school, and then going to high school, and then graduating and going to work, and then getting married and having your own kids and watching them grow and watching them enjoy each moment in their childhood.

 I had a very happy and enjoyable childhood, it just seems like it went so fast, I think that’s how life works, as soon as you blink the next moment has come and gone already, I think you should enjoy each moment and day that you are blessed with because the next day isn’t Promised seize the moment and make each day a happy one .

 I only have a couple more years in my Young Adult hood, which kind of makes me nervous, it makes me realize how much closer I am to being a full adult, and going out and seeing the real world, and my cousin told me that with each age you become wiser I think that’s true because I noticed with each age I have turned I am growing wiser and stronger and feeling more confident and happy in myself. 

I also wanted to do this movie because I wanted to talk about one of my favorite actors Cameron Boyce, he was an absolute amazing and incredible young man and he always had a happy smile on his face and was loved by many, he lived life to the fullest and enjoyed each and every moment of his life, he unfortunately passed away July 6th 2019, you may know him from Jessie he played Luke on the show he was the brother of Emma, Zuri and Ravi.

 He was also on liv and Maddie, and he was in Descendants. 

He had a remarkable and successful career in his lifetime, and left a wonderful and beautiful legacy that will forever ♾️ remain in the world and those who’s hearts he’s touched. I wanted to do a tribute to him because he always put a smile on my face and I loved how much he loved his family and friends and enjoyed life. 

I encourage you all as you are growing up and getting older and becoming mature and wise and strong adults to always remember the importance of having fun, and laughing and enjoying life and your family and friends, and to let the child in you out every once in a while, and just enjoy yourself.

 And I believe that you can also learn something from your kids sometimes, kids are very smart and wise and they learn from you, they also retain a lot of knowledge and understanding quick, they will amaze you with their knowledge and skills. 

I also am a fan of David Spade, he makes me laugh a lot, if you want you can Check out a few of his movies, he’s a good actor, I like him in Joe Dirt, and the Emperors New Groove and Kronks New Groove, I also like Chris Rock and Kevin James, they make me laugh too.

I love Chris rock in Madagascar he plays Marty the Zebra and does an outstanding job, and I also like him in the Bee Movie, he has done a lot of great movies check those out when you have a chance, Kevin James I like him in Mall Cop, and the movie Zoo Keeper, Hitch, I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry that’s a funny one.. he has had a lot of funny movies in his successful career check out some of his movies too if you want to have a laugh 😂. I added a couple clips from my favorite movies that I wrote about if you want to watch or have a little laugh.

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a nice family movie comedy!
