Bedtime Stories (2008)

I could focus on how lame and unfunny the Adam Sandler family comedy "Bedtime Stories" is, but it's just not worth the effort. Sandler's haircut looks like Dustin Hoffman's cheap clip job from "Rain Man" and his hotel handyman character is about as funny as the elder Babbitt brother. But I'm more shocked that Guy Pearce ("Memento") is forced to mug here as the villain. Man looks as if he wants to forget making this film. Where has his career gone? British shock comedian/bad seed Russell Brand adds needed spark and fire with a few quick scenes. But who thought it was wise to let him near children? D-
