I'm a big fan of the happy Madison comedies, but Adam Sandlers movies recently for me have had very little laughs in them, 'funny people' 'Jack and Jill' 'grown ups' for example. This one had me laughing all the way through, I'm not ashamed to admit I enjoy a daft Sandler comedy full of crude humour, it had a few nice cameos in there too, Vanilla ice and Willis from different stokes were good sports and fans of Adam Sandler/ Happy Madison movies will recognise a lot of the usual crew, I enjoyed this movie the same as I did when I watched Grandma's boy and Benchwarmers, I put this movie on par with those two so if you liked those two i'm sure you will enjoy this one.

8/10

This movie after an hour was on course for being an awesome film but it was spoilt, the 3 main characters were excellent and were played brilliantly but for some reason the movie took a turn in mine an a lot of other people I have spoke to's opinion for the worse, when I say terrible ending, I use the word ending very lightly as it had no particular ending and leaves the viewer very much unfulfilled and confused, the director seems to have wanted to end it with a twist to maybe shock and wow the audience but it does neither, in the end it was too obvious and a pretty much a pathetic attempt. I am so disappointed with the ending as I absolutely loved the first hour of this film, Neil Maskell was fantastic, and his character was too, he had a great mixture of psychotic and humour, backed by Michael Smiley and MyAnna Buring who too were brilliant, I cannot fault their acting at all, the dialogue too was good and the film up to the last 20 Min's kept me intrigued and entertained, but unfortunately it just fell apart, in the end I was left frustrated and so disappointed that they could build this movie up so well just to absolutely ruin it with a pathetic attempt of a shock/twist ending. I'm sorry Ben Wheatley but you totally ruined this film, it could have been oh so brilliant but instead turned it into a large pile of manure. this movie deserved a brilliant ending but all it did is make me actually HATE the film. and for this, it turned a 9 out of 10 movie into a 1 out of 10.

I have just watched this film and I absolutely love it, this is no high budget high octane action flick but I does have a story line that keeps you wondering and guessing till the end, and more so, not due to huge twists but due to the writing and direction of the story, The film itself reminded me a lot of 'enemy mine' with a bit of 'pitch black' thrown in, the acting wasn't that bad actually, not saying they will win any Oscars but they held their own but what I was impressed with was Sandy Collora, their is big things ahead for this guy and I for one will be looking out for more stuff from him.

I also hear that the alien prequel's have been scrapped :(, let this guy loose on them I say.
