Have you ever wondered where the conspiracy that if you pee in a pool the water will turn blue comes from? It comes from the movie Grown Ups, when Kevin James is sitting in the pool with his two kids and all of a sudden a cloud of blue swarms around their bodies. All men that have seen this movie are paranoid of this happening in real life, whether they admit it or not. The combination of an all-star cast, a genuine lesson learned at the end, and a humor that appeals to all age groups makes for one of the best comedies ever. The director of Grown Ups, Dennis Dugan, did a fantastic job of assembling a cast of comedy genius’. The five main roles are played by Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade, and Rob Schneider. It is highly unlikely that anyone who enjoys comedy movies has never had a good gut busting laugh by one of these actors. There are multiple times where all of these actors make everyone that’s watching laugh …show more content…
There is a fine line between being able to watch a comedy with our parents or not, and this movie mastered that border perfectly. There is humor that attracts to all age groups throughout Grown Ups. Kids find their enjoyment in the farting grandma, and the physical harm all of the characters go through. Teenagers are amused by the cast making jokes about each other’s appearance and David Spade’s spouseless, alcoholic of a character. Such as when he passes out drunk in the closet and wakes up the next morning with one of the moms milking tubes on his breast. Adults are always humored by the relatable jokes made about the restrictions that come with getting older. For example, when Kevin James is running away during one of their games and gets an awful cramp in his leg. The humor that is suitable for all ages is what makes this movie one of the best comedies
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Adam Sandler, who's become one of Hollywood's top box-office draws by playing infantile men prone to fisticuffs and tantrums, displays in real life a shambling politeness and faux-naive modesty.

...dness but comedy was used as an emotion. When Michael was going to make a "citizens arrest" at the banks, there was comedy there, sort of like sarcasm which is known to sway a person's thoughts if it is funnier in the sense. The whole movie really shows a lot of emotions and tries to persuade our thoughts on the government with it.

Nevertheless, the film The Ridiculous Six is another Adam Sandler style comedy that has viewers laughing all throughout. Along with the unbelievable amount of big name actors, the plot of the movie fits well with the amount of unexpected reveals and twists portrayed. Although there were some negative reviews and controversies, the movie is still loved by many that can see past the stereotypes and laugh throughout the movie like the writers and producers
There were many moments where it was expected for the audience to laugh, but they did not. Some weaknesses in the scene were that the actors needed to be more emotionally connected to the scene to make the characters more real and entertaining to watch. No audience member wants to watch a scene where the actors do fully commit. Also, with the election about a month away from the performance date, the political tensions may have been high and less of a laughing matter. Yet, there were some successes as some jokes did receive laughter and the piece was entertaining. There were also no jokes that offended anyone. We stayed inside the lines as we did not want anyone to feel uncomfortable. Language was kept in G rated category as this would not have provided any substance to the work and would have ruined the goal of making this a good-humored scene.
In his interview with Big Think, he says that “Dwight will do something stupid, but the laugh is on Pam watching it or Jim seeing it and then turning to the camera because that is I think how young people... that is how young people feel today. You know they're seeing all this absurdity and it's like if they could young people would just look at the camera, so it's less say a comedy of awkwardness and more a comedy of reactivity”(bigthink). It’s interesting how he mentions young people in his interview. He also says things like “...young people like that kind of humor. They love it.
Without the humor of comedians all of our lives would be a living sinkhole of misery and depression; one of the most relieving comedians of our time was Robins Williams. His comedy was very light, but his acting was very heavy. It could range for audiences of all ages, but yet have jokes only those of a certain age could understand. Without the comic humor of Robin Williams we would be stuck in the comical age of the early fifties.In the Movie Patch Adams the belated actor said the following, "What's wrong with death sir? What are we so mortally afraid of? Why can't we treat death with a certain amount of humanity and dignity, and decency, and God forbid, maybe even humor. Death is not the enemy

The hero, Calvin Clifford Baxter, or Bud, is an office drudge with slender income.

Language or the way in which words are used is one of the most important components of a comedy. Through an intelligent use of word play and the ability to add
With every intense action scene, you will find that perverse comedy is readily littered. The materials execution is almost more important than the material itself. Vulgar humor makes this movie stand out among the rest. Deadpool has no shortage of memorable comedic
The comedy is also rather basic, the sort of humour that is based on running into walls and falling over, although, it has to be said that writers Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger have managed to write some truly funny scenes. For example, the fight over the dumplings between Shifu and Po for fantastic surreality. Or, the scene with Po’s rocket chair creation that has a promising and funny start, even if the conclusion is completely predicable.
