Pixels (2015)

Written by The Movie Mob on January 2, 2023

Pixels is another dumb, fun Adam Sandler film that doesn’t deserve all the hate. If you like Sandler movies, this is a good one.

I have seen this movie on so many “Worst of all time” lists, and it does not belong there. It’s an Adam Sandler movie, so that should give you an idea of what to expect - a goofy comedy with some absurd characters doing something ridiculous. And I’m here for it! I enjoy Sandler movies, and I really enjoyed this one. The characters were funny. The plot entertained. The effects worked with the 80s video game idea. Sandler and James are always a fun duo, and adding Gad and Dinklage cranked up the laughs. Michelle Monaghan was a good fit and knew how to play with the boys in this outrageous film. I’m not saying Pixels should win an Oscar, but it’s fun to watch and laugh with the family, especially if you’re a fan of other Sandler films.
