Murtada Elfadl What if you managed a bank, and your fiancée’s folks turned out to be notorious bank robbers who saw their prospective son-in-law as the perfect patsy for their next hit? Not a bad setup for hijinks and hilarity. That’s what the filmmakers behind “The Out-Laws” are hoping, anyway. Produced by Adam Sandler (among others) and directed by Tyler Spindel, the not-so-original Netflix original plays like “Meet the Parents” crossed with “Fun with Dick and Jane.” Seeing as how the former inspired several sequels and the latter a remake, the situational comedy on offer is hardly fresh, though it still could (and should) have been funnier. As Owen Browning, Adam Devine takes the mantle from Sandler to play a schlubby everyman partnered with a gorgeous woman (Nina Dobrev) out of his league. Naturally, he’s kind-hearted and willing to sacrifice all for his one true love. And that’s how the audience knows he’s worthy of her. On the week of their wedding, her long-absent parents (Ellen Barkin and Pierce Brosnan) show up after many years of estrangement. It’s quickly revealed that they were in hiding from their former partner (Poorna Jagannathan), after relieving her of large sums of money. Conveniently, their future son-in-law manages a bank, and so a scheme is set in motion. This being a comedy, no one will get hurt and the sweet guy will keep his beautiful woman.
Bachelorette Charity Lawson’s Family Guide: Meet Her Parents and 3 Siblings
23.06.2023 - 18:19 / usmagazine.com
Charity Lawson’s biggest supporters heading into her season of The Bachelorette are her loving family.
Bachelor Nation fans met the season 20 Bachelorette, 27, on Zach Shallcross’ season of The Bachelor, where she scored a coveted Hometown as a part of the California native’s final four alongside Gabi Elnicki, Ariel Frenkel and Kaity Biggar.
Upon traveling to her hometown of Columbus, Georgia, Charity introduced Zach, 26, to her parents, David and Vickie Lawson, her older brothers, David Jr. and Nehemiah Lawson, and several of her extended family and friends. (Charity’s older sister, Amiyaka Lawson, was not present for the Hometown date.)
Ahead of Zach and Charity’s arrival at the family gathering, Nehemiah noted that while they all want Charity to find her “happily ever after,” they also have to think about the possibility that “Zach doesn’t choose her” and whether she’s ready to “deal with all of that.”
Charity’s father, for his part, noted on the March 2023 episode that the pair looked “beautiful together” before pulling his daughter away for a talk about her potential future with Zach. “This could be something serious and something for real,” the child and family therapist told her dad. “To have you and Mom be, like, my role models — you guys have been my hope of what I envision and what I want.”
While her brothers warned her to be cautious of Zach’s relationships with the other women, Charity’s mother helped her realize she wanted to tell Zach she was falling in love with him. “To express it and to be able to say those words is very important,” Vickie said during the episode.
Though the Hometown date seemingly went off with a hitch, Charity was ultimately sent home by the Bachelor at the end of the week. She went on to
