Had to watch this right away. Good performances across the board. Sandler is really good, and I'm not a fan of his. Really nice to Dustin Hoffman in a major role again.

Dark comedy/drama with very solid writing. I'd like to see it again at some point.

Is tard offensive?

You ponder that question...

I thought this might be Baumbach's best. I really dug it. It would be great to see Sandler and Stiller get Oscar nom's, but I think the whole Netflix thing kind of kills that for them. It's been such a long time since Dustin Hoffman has had such a good role. Decades. He played such a horrible human being in this. But I thought the movie was great. It'll land on my top 10 at the end of the year. It's gonna be a shame if it doesn't land on Blu Ray 4.5/5

I was late for this

Maybe not that shocking now that Sandler can do drama and I think this was one of his best dramatic performances and better than Hustle and Uncut Gems.

Too bad it seems Hoffman is getting pigeonholed into these dying or ailing grandfather roles lately.

Overall worth the watch though
Spoiler:
Sandler's daughter in the movie is doing porn movies and nobody complains? I know they are a family of artists but still
