Too heavy in parts (just like Bridesmaids), about 45 mins too long (just like Bridesmaids) and not enough use of Melissa McCarthy (you get the idea).
ReplyDeleteI thought the grandparents added very little and was disappointed with John Lithgow.
Ultimately, just not enough funny for something being touted as comedy.
With different trailers I might have different expectations but it's being pushed as hilarious and isn't.
But McCarthy, Megan Fox and the eldest daughter were all worth seeing.
All IMHO
