Just writing a review to reinforce a clear mental note to NEVER see another Adam Sandler or Drew Barrymore movie ever. The main problem with this one was the actors, the plot, and the writing. It was so bad it turned my stomach, especially all the singing by the Africans to outline the storyline...a technique clearly pinched from 'Something About Mary', but it was done soooo so poxy. I hated this movie, so did my wife, and my dog. To say it was a cookie cutter movie and predictable as hell is an understatement. Boy meets girl, kids don't like new dad, old dad is an ignorant dick who sleeps around, bad first date, they meet accidentally in shop, accidentally end up on an African vacation (like a Brady Bunch Hawaii 'special') Africans sing all the time and it's like Disneyland, oldest daughter is tom boy, gets make over by new mom, so then gets the guy she likes, new dad teaches kid to hit baseballs, he hits a home run at end of film (they love their baseballs metaphors in American films)Drew has a ridiculous job as a wardrobe arranger with a ridiculous friend who really unlikable because she hates kids (in quite a nasty way actually)I can't even be bothered to finish this review...I don't recommend seeing this, watch '50 First Dates' again instead.
