November 9, 2010 - New DVD and Video Releases
Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider star in this comedy. These five actors portray middle-aged men who 30 years ago played together on a basketball team, and now they hold a reunion at a lake house over a Fourth of July weekend. The wives of Sandler's, James' and Rock's characters are played by Salma Hayek, Maria Bello and Maya Rudolph. Schneider's wife is much older and is played by Joyce Van Patten. In addition to shenanigans at the house, there's a side trip to a water park. There's not much plot — it's all about jokes and sketches.More »

Scott is dating high school girl Knives Chau (Ellen Wong), when he meets and becomes obsessed with Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). However, he must defeat Ramona's seven evil exes — six males and one female — in stylized battles to the death.More »
