Finally, a comedy that stays funny

As you know, I don't get out much anymore so movies on the premium channels on T.V. are like brand new to me. This one I saw over the weekend and found it quite funny. Blended is the first true comedy I've seen since Holiday. Most so called comedies turn sad by the last 1/2 hour with all sorts of social and emotional problems, but this one continues to keep you in a good mood until The End appears, and after with some of the out takes during the credits.
Released in May, just last year in 2014, Blended stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore who make a cute, recurring couple like June Allyson and James Stewart did. Some of the reasons for their predicaments are a little far fetched, but still the story moves along. Sandler is usually pretty funny, but often falls into the bodily function genre. There is only one small scene like that in this film and it is not carried on and on as often is done. It's about two families who are unfortunately thrown together during an African safari trip given to them by friends. I say unfortunate because the couple have been on a blind date and it was the typical 'date from hell', so when they see each other they naturally start saying and acting the worst. However, it is a cute movie and I recommend it for a good family night. Get the popcorn out and the couch throws and relax and enjoy.
