Synopsis: “When two very different fathers (Adam Sandler and Chris Rock) come together for their children’s wedding, everything that could go wrong, does. Watch the hilarious hijinks as the two try to keep everything afloat, while dealing with their families…and each other. Before they get to the big day, they have to go through a long week. The Week Of premieres April 27 on Netflix.”
The trailer to Netflix’s Save the Date has hit the streets. Now, lately when it comes to Adam Sandler his track record has been very hit or miss. Or misses so badly you wonder why he even tried. Re-teaming with his Grown Ups co-star and fellow SNL alumni, Chris Rock, The Week Of is directed by SNL/Hotel Transylvania/Don’t Mess with the Zohan writer Robert Smigel – so, its a mixed bag. Chris Rock is always hilarious, but the Zohan…
As part of his Netflix deal we’re getting the next Sandler movie and this one could seem like it’ll break him out of the funk he’s been in lately. You can actually spot Steve Buscemi in there and usually Buscemi’s small parts are the reason some Sandler movies are remotely funny (Seeing Buscemi sing at the end of Wedding Singer has got to be one of the funniest things in that movie).
Save the Date is out on April 27th.
