Good Luck to You, Leo Grande is certainly a different kind of story. That’s always the thing, more different stories … for everybody.” I hope that we open up and want to see more kinds of stories. I just know that I make films that feel like they’re international, but they feel Australian to me too. Or they’re successful overseas and not as successful in the cinema here. It’s a real tight balance because Australian audiences in the cinema for Australian films are not necessarily the same… We seem to have films that are successful in Australia in cinema, and then not as successful overseas. As producers, we don’t look at the international world. “I think this is exactly the kind of thing we can be producing out of Australia. This is the only film I’ve ever done that I’m not a producer of… Silly me,” Hyde says about the film, which is getting a big push around the world. “Australia should be producing things like this. Actually, Rob Schneider gives new meaning to annoying, but he’s not nearly in this as much as the rodent.Hyde is co-owner and one of the directors at Closer, and says that it’s “sometimes nice to go and do something else,” with regards to Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, starring Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack. This includes a bland romance between Skeeter and his sister’s friend Jill (Kerri Russell) and some terrible CGI effects a la “Alvin and the Chipmunks” featuring a wide-eyed hamster who gives new meaning to annoying. There’s plenty more grizzle and fat in “Bedtime Stories” that won’t hurt to omit since it makes no bearing either way on the topsy-turvy mess. But when the kid’s embellishments to the story start coming true (the script gets really sketchy here), Skeeter tries to use the newfound magic to manipulate a few things to go his way. Since the kids are forbidden to do anything fun or time consuming like watch TV, Skeeter tells them a bedtime story, a story which the children happily add their own ideas to the narrative.

In the film, Sandler plays Skeeter Bronson, a hotel handyman who agrees to babysit his nephew and niece for his sister Wendy (Courtney Cox) even though he hasn’t seen them in four years. Maybe that’s the idea Lopez and Herlihy wanted to convey, but in “Bedtime Stories” even the uber-dorky Adam Sandler doesn’t seem like the right match against the grab bag of nonsense tossed around so effortlessly. Deeds”) make such a disaster on screen, it’s hard to really point fingers at anybody since the primary concept for the film seems to have been scribbled down by kindergarteners working on writing shifts. In “Bedtime Stories,” director Adam Shankman (“Hairspray”) and screenwriters Matt Lopez (“The Wild”) and Tim Herlihy (“Mr.

Remember the Robert Rodriguez 2005 debacle “The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3D,” a movie written from a story conjured up by his 8-year-old son? Even innocent ideas can be irrefutably toxic. It’s hard enough to make a family film for parents and kids with IQs above, say, 35, but it’s probably even more difficult when you have something as precious as good intentions invested into the project. When are actors, directors, and filmmakers in general going to learn that after they pop out a few kids with their significant other, they don’t necessarily have to take a step back during their children’s formidable years and think to themselves, “You know, I’d really like to make a movie my kid could watch.” Written by: Matt Lopez (“The Wild”) and Tim Herlihy (“Mr. Starring: Adam Sandler, Kerri Russell, Guy Pearce
