Reunited and it’s looking good

What: “Blended”
Cast: Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Joel McHale, Kevin Nealon, Jessica Lowe and Bella Thorne
Writers: Ivan Menchell and Clare Sera
Director: Frank Coraci
The story: Single parents (Sandler, Barrymore) are reunited after a disastrous blind date when they and their kids are forced to share a suite during an African safari.
The buzz: Sandler and Barrymore were great together in “The Wedding Singer” and “50 First Dates.” Here’s hoping they can rekindle some of that spark, because Sandler’s recent output has been borderline unwatchable.
