Review - Just go with it

On a trip to Hawaii, a made up family are living the dream but telling a lie.


In February 2011 “Just Go With It” was released in U.S. cinemas. The romantic comedy got a rate of 6.4 out of 10 on imdb. Here five years, later is my take on the movie.

This story begins with a wedding. A wedding that never takes place, because just before the wedding is about to take place, Danny overhears his soon to be wife's very mean conversation with her bridesmaids. He hears what she really thinks about him and leaves. By accident he picks up a girl way out of his league, at a bar and discovers: “The magique of the wedding ring”.

A few years later he meets “Palmer”, a young, blonde girl at a party. Desperate to avoid the truth, Danny makes up a fake wife and makes his assistant “Katherine” play her. One lie leads to another and and soon, Danny finds himself in Hawaii, with a made up family.

Lead cast: “Danny” - Adam Sandler, “Katherine” - Jennifer Aniston

The movie is directed by Dennis Dugan and written by Allan Loeb and Timothy Dowling. Jennifer and Adam were both nominated for the mtv movie awards for best female performance and best comedic performance. Jennifer was also nominated for the performance of the year, national movie award. The movie budget was 80 million dollars which is almost 673 million swedish kronor.

My favourite tagline from the movie is “Sometimes you need a girl, to get the girl”.

I personally, love this movie! It absolutely cracks me up! I´m a sucker for romance and comedy, but I could watch this movie on repeat. Both Jennifer and Adam seems to be born to play their characters! The story has the perfect amount of drama for you to be moved but not freaked out.

The fact that you get to see a little bit of the hawaiian environment during the second part of the movie, I think is fantastic. It keeps me interested during the whole thing. I also love the fact that they included kids in the movie because the relationship between the grown ups and the kids develop in such a beautiful way, throughout the movie.

I give this movie a score of nine out of ten!

The best part in the movie is definitely the end though, but i'm going to let you find out what happens, for yourself.
