Blended
review by

*****
Adam Sandler's modern day rom-com pairing himself with the
never fading Drew Barrymore is a unromantic and less blended. Their chemistry
on screen does no fireworks as a result giving a thumbs down to this hot
properties of Hollywood.
Both play single parent Jim [Adam Sandler] a widower with
three daughters and Lauren [Drew Barrymore] a divorcee with two sons go on a
blind date to plan a future family together, but all goes in vain.
Next a vacation from Lauren’s friend Wendi McLendon who has
a fiasco trip of Africa.But a surprise awaits when all of them reach the
vacation destination as they have signed up the same trip separately and now have to
spent the entire vacation by sharing their suite.
The expedition to Africa becomes alike a fairy tale trip, as
love blossom with exchanging compassion towards each other kids,Lauren
transforms jim’s daughter Hillary[Bella Thorne] from a tomboy to a babe and Jim
coaches Lauren’s son to be a winner in a base ball game.
The movie concludes with a happy ending climax truly in a
Bollywood stlye.
