Description

Blended is a 2014 American romantic comedy film directed by Frank Coraci and written by Ivan Menchell and Clare Sera. It stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, with supporting roles by Bella Thorne, Emma Fuhrmann, Terry Crews, Joel McHale, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Kevin Nealon, and Shaquille O'Neal. The plot revolves around two single parents, Jim and Lauren, who end up going on a safari vacation in South Africa with their children after a disastrous blind date.

The film received negative reviews from critics and was a commercial disappointment, grossing $128 million worldwide against a $40 million budget. Sandler and Barrymore's performances were praised, but the film was criticized for its recycled plot, lack of originality, and reliance on offensive humor. It received three Razzie nominations, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, and Worst Actress for Barrymore.

Despite the negative critical reception, Blended has since gained a cult following among fans of Sandler and Barrymore's collaborations, and is considered a guilty pleasure by some viewers. The film's depiction of family and blended families has also been praised for its positive portrayal of co-parenting and step-parenting.

Released in 2012, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days covers the events depicted in third and fourth books of Jeff Kinney: The Last Straw and Dog Days. The last one "realistic fiction" novel got more attention from Wallace Wolodarsky who wrote a screenplay for the movie, and this fact is noticeably reflected in the film's plot. The storyline begins with Greg Heffley and Rowley Jefferson are going to the country club for their summer vacations where due to the unfortunate sequence of developments both of them got into the troubles. Bleak outlook of spending the summer in vain efforts to make some money is rising at the horizon with more and more of clarity. That makes the movie very similar to previous two: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010) and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011) – the hopeless children are showcased as losers trying to do their best. Nevertheless, the play of the cast is outstanding as usual and while watching this sequel you distinctively understand why these seven actor and actress (Zachary Gordon, Karan Brar, Robert Capron, Laine MacNeil, Connor & Owen Fielding and Dalila Bela were nominated the Young Artist Award and some of them ( we mean Laine MacNeil) even won it. By the way, Zachary Gordon's career is moving quite fast, which is led him to the lead role in the 2012 movie Norm of the North, where he plays main protagonist, Norm.
