Directed by Dennis Dugan, (1/5). Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison crew has been a bit hit and miss when it comes to making comedy films, their repertoire consisting of Little Nicky, Joe Dirt, Mr Deeds and of course, Grandma’s Boy.

Directed by Carlos Saldanha (3.5/5). I opened the heavy door to the room where the sound of the commercial world was coming from. I then edged my way past rows of velvet red seats.
