Good movie, an entertaining comedy that may have a predictable plot but in the end is enjoyable and endearing. I really like the relationship that Sonny has with Julian and how they handle it throughout the movie, implying that he's not a good father, but making the kid love him so much that in the end he doesn't want to be separated from him. To this is added that both Adam Sandler and Cole Sprouse/Dylan Sprouse are perfect for the role and together they do a great job. Another very good thing is the soundtrack, which also stands out a lot because it contains well-known songs. Also, there are a lot of funny moments throughout this movie, which work really well as a lot of them managed to make me laugh. Despite this, he also makes very unoriginal jokes that don't work well at all, like some falling jokes that are typical in Adam Sandler movies; In addition, there are some moments throughout the film that do not make much sense or are not very related and that could easily not be in the final cut. In conclusion, I think it's a decent film, a comedy to watch on a weekend, to entertain you and make you laugh at times and even get emotional at others, managing to be endearing. I recommend it.
