Reno on The Do-Over

7/10 · Mar 16, 2017

Sandler’s recent output has given the impression that he'd misplaced his knack for success, however, more recent projects indicate a possible return to form. He isn't quite the performer he once was, though; times have changed and it seems like he's managing an acceptable adjustment. Critics continue their disapproval, but those who dislike him are just being negative. This is a Netflix film featuring Sandler in an enigmatic part. He joins forces with an old friend to fabricate their deaths and start over. However, the identities they’ve assumed come with significant problems that begin to affect them, and resolving this situation constitutes the rest of the story. The plot itself feels adequate; it isn't particularly original, but the filmmakers avoided relying too heavily on familiar tropes. The developments are fairly predictable, though most viewers will likely find them satisfactory. The action elements could have been more impressive for a comedy. Acting is solid and the film moves along at a comfortable speed. The director and Sandler previously created some enjoyable comedies together, so this new partnership proved to be agreeable. Ignore what professional reviewers say—it scores higher elsewhere—but it remains somewhat overlooked. If you’re looking for an average action-comedy, it's probably worth watching. _7/10_
