Much of the humor is Sandler boilerplate stuff but a musical montage when Sandler realizes his daughter isn't just a tomboy anymore is funny and worth a look.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 1, 2021

Ignore the critics. Blended a return to form for Sandler.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 3, 2020

It's garbage.

| May 26, 2020

Don't Netflix it, don't rent it... even if it's free. No.

| Mar 26, 2020

Blended could well be Coraci and Sandler's most abject collaboration to date.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 21, 2019

There is only so much one can swallow the same shtick film after film.

| Mar 6, 2019

If you've seen the trailer, you've seen it all.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 11, 2018

If it were another harmless throwaway comedy built on junior high locker-room humor, it wouldn't be a big deal. But Blended could have been better. And that's disappointing.

| Nov 28, 2017

The movie is no doubt funny, but the genuinely good jokes are just by the handful.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 14, 2017

To summarise in as few words possible: it is a film, it has people in it, the lighting is adequate and there's a monkey band playing Careless Whisper. Can I go home now and stare into the dark abyss that is my life please?

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 11, 2016

Avoid "Blended" like it's your job - because it is. Your future happiness could depend on it.

| Original Score: 0.5/5 | Apr 9, 2016

A movie too afraid to use real emotion or accept its audience is smart enough to read between the lines.

| Original Score: D | Mar 7, 2016

Are Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore the mass-market Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy?

| Nov 6, 2014

It seems that miracles do happen in modern cinema. It's warm, funny, tender, serious and ( ... ) decidedly old fashioned. There's no swearing, no pandering to repeated toilet gags and the 'gross-out' market is all but ignored.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 10, 2014

Hasn't Africa suffered enough?

| Original Score: 0/4 | Oct 3, 2014

I wish "Blended" were more a family ensemble dramedy and not a Barrymore and Sandler vehicle that rips off of "Yours, Mine and Ours."

| Sep 18, 2014

Adam Sandler fans who are members of blended families may love it the most. All others will wish Blended had the courage to include more identifiable human moments and fewer screwing rhinos.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 25, 2014

Blessedly written by someone who's not Sandler--and it's almost passable, even palatable ... until the movie throws in vagina-size jokes. And passes off tomboys as weird non-men. And goes to "Africa."

| Aug 6, 2014

Typical Sandler contrived comedy, with more heart and the likeable Drew Barrymore to help keep the African safari-themed absurdity and crudity to tolerant levels.

| Original Score: B- | Jul 5, 2014

The uninspired screenplay is content to recycle the same jokes over and over, with gradually diminished returns.
