Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): One of the children talks to a girl about World of Warcraft. He said he was a level 40 Blood Elf Druid. There's no such thing. Only taurens and night elves can be druids.

Quotes:

Charlie Hinton: Okay, this is it. Time to give 'em a summer they'll never forget.
[bus crashes into cabin]
Phil: They won't forget that.

I Want You Back

simply a horrible idea

This movie was just awful. The plot is 2 guys who run a day care decide to take over a day camp. One of the guys, Charlie, is at odds with the guy who runs the other more fancy camp. Charlie doesn't want that guy to take over the older camp. Some of the "funny" parts were the cleaning up of the camp. It's always so funny to see someone fall through a roof while hammering or cleaning up a nasty bathroom. It will have you rolling in the floor, NOT!! So, the ending is the predictable competition between the 2 camps and the other camp cheats to win some of the games. But, Charlie's kid saves the day by winning.

Why would Cuba Gooding be in this. He must have been desperate for a check.

FINAL VERDICT: You will hate yourself if you waste 90 minutes on this. Don't do it.
