Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore take The Brady Bunch to Africa in their third on-screen pairing, a coarse romcom that not even their proven chemistry can salvage. An early scene in which their single-parent characters meet cute in a convenience store – he buying tampons for his eldest, she scoring porn for hers – sets the low tone.

And things hardly improve when they find themselves at the same safari resort with their five respective offspring, in a fantasy veldt wholly subservient to wealthy American tourists. The worst moment? When Drew makeovers Adam’s “fugly” daughter (Bella Thorne) into perv-pleasing jailbait.
