The previews for this one looked pretty good. I use to like Sandler but a lot of his more recent stuff has really sucked or been way too average. I liked the diea that these two kids some how make what they say come to life and their dumb uncle tries to sue it to make his life better, despite telling the kids that there are no happy endings.
But of course there are and if you've seen the previews then you already know what will happen. Despite the cliches it's a mildly entertaining film that borrows from many other films. My biggest complaint with the film comes from Sandler. It's not that he is bad... Well, he is but it's because he says and does things that aren't something this character would do but are also overused Sandler-isms that we've heard him say and do a thousand times before.
So Sandler is obvious a one trick pony but that's okay ebcause the kids will enjoy this one. I can't recommend this one completely for a theatrical viewing but right now there isn't much out there for the kids so if you're heading to the tehater you could do much worse than this one.
Entertainment Value - 3/5
Movie - 3/5
