The story of an immature man and his struggles.

Plot:

Donny, a school kid, gets abused by a hebephile, and turns into a dad at such a young age. The court orders to leave the baby in Donny's custody, once after he attains a legal age.

Later in 2012, Donny is a layabout, who spends time with his friends Brie, a bartender, and her mother Champale, a stripper. He owes a huge amount of tax to pay to the IRS as well, and he also knows that he may be jailed if he fails to return the amount.

The baby grows up into a successful business person, and called by the name of Todd. He stays separated from his father as he is feeling embarrassed of him. Todd is also engaged to his fiancee, Jamie. He visits a producer to ask for some money, who in turn makes a deal to make Todd meet his mother, and he will help with Donny.

Donny tries to convince Todd, and they go to the prison to meet his mother. When media people pop up from nowhere, Todd gets embarrassed and runs away. Since he did not sign the release form, Donny does not get paid. Later he gets to know that Jamie is cheating on Todd.

Jamie tries to bribe him and gives him a cheque worth $50,000. But Donny wishes that he has to do some good deed to his son. He breaks their marriage and makes Jamie accept her infidelity. After some days, Todd changes his name to his original name, which is Han Solo Berger.

He also reveals that he is going to date with Brie. He was ready to clear his father's debts. But Donny says that he has to suffer for his mistakes, and the movie ends with him, ready to accept the jail term. I have mentioned the complete story above, so as to save the people from spending their time for a worst movie like this.

This movie has bagged many awards in the field of the worst screenplay, worst story, worst acting, etc. Adam Sandler Humour is the thing that emphasizes the character >> Read More... , who is very much known for his humor, has failed a big time with this movie. Most of the jokes are stupid and lame as possible. This movie also happens to be Samberg's debut film. Adam has come up to this level with all his hard work and some amount of luck.

In case if this movie happens to be a hit, it will be a good milestone in his career. Unfortunately, the movie flopped. I wonder how the screenwriter of the movie tries to make jokes out of child abuse while totally it is a horror. In scenes like this, we will not be able to find even a single spill of human feelings.

Verdict:

I would suggest the viewers to sleep, rather watching a bad movie like this.
