Synopsis:

From IMDb: “After a bad blind date, a man and woman find themselves stuck together at a resort for families, where their attraction grows as their respective kids benefit from the burgeoning relationship.”

Poster: D / C (2) / C+ / C-

Review: (#1-#3) It’s obvious the intent of this poster, but it’s so garish, large and unappealing. Visually it’s a dud. The second two designs are a bit more rewarding, but the tepid Photoshop work on the blended images isn’t very good, making them feel incredibly fake.

(#4-#5) There’s not much extra to these new designs. The fourth is a better all around poster than the rest, but is still fairly cheesy. The fifth design might appeal to fans of Sandler and Barrymore, but they are painfully uninteresting otherwise.

Trailer: C+ / B-

Review: It’s amazing what difference a re-cut can make. For those of you playing at home, an film editor’s job is to make a good film. A trailer editor’s job is to make a mediocre film look palatable or a good film look great. Here, you have to examples of trailers cut from the same film. The first one is choppy, generic and not particularly funny. The second one is moves along at a nice clip, has some more interesting humor and overall makes the film look better.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
