    A very funny romantic comedy that nicely combines Adam Sandler's acerbic sweetness with Aniston's down-to-earth warmth.

    Just Go with It provides not only the title of the film but a one-step instruction for how best to enjoy it.

    A loose but fairly snappy remake of the 1969 charmer "Cactus Flower."

    Akin to watching a bad sit-com that never ends.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I highly recommend this movie among films of this genre, I don't know why some of critics didn't like it. I like Jennifer Aniston a lot, and I like all her movies, she is a very talented actress with a very charming face. she is very adorable in the whole world especially in Europe, she is the actress no. 1 in Europe and Middle east.

  2. This movie was really fun and charming. Is it the deepest movie ever produced? No. But it is a good date movie, it had me, my fiance, and our friend laughing throughout, and left us with a good feeling as we left the theater. I'll probably buy it too, for when I need a fun movie to watch.

    On a side note, Nicole Kidman is outrageous, I'm glad we got to see a fun side of her.

    There really are not enough funny moments in this film to warrant a high score but it isn't as bad as the critics are trying to suggest. Not one of Sandler's best but he still manages to pull it off rather well. I wasn't sold on Brooklyn Decker's acting credentials and found Nick Swardson as well as the two children rather annoying.

  4. This film isn't funny. It's not dark, comical, interesting, impressive or groundbreaking. Not that it should be any of those things. It's supposed to be a comedy. Adam Sandler hasn't always been impressive to me, but for God's sake at least try. It's not the worst movie out there, and if you wanna watch this, then fine. It's just not a good piece of movie by any means. It's not like it has to be funny all the time. If you like it, fine, but it's stupid. And not the good kind! Expand
