“It’s always a humiliating role for me. I’m usually some schlub. I had t—s on my head in (the demon comedy) Little Nicky, I had horrible plastic surgery in Just Go With It. I was the Neighborhood Watch guy in (You Don’t Mess with the) Zohan, who kept crapping his pants because he was scared,” says Nealon, according to The Toronto Sun. “I’ve got to get to the bottom of this. Our kids go to the same school now.”

Somehow, they sign them and their kids up – totally separately – on a lavish vacation. Upon arrival, they realise they are all stuck sharing a suite at a luxurious African safari resort for a week.
Nealon plays a garish, bothersome father from Vancouver with a trophy wife and a grumpy adolescent son who falls for one of Sandler’s daughters. “I’m not sure where Vancouver came from,” Nealon says. “They might have just picked a city randomly. But I have a soft spot for Vancouver. I filmed Roxanne there with Steve Martin, and I filmed Happy Gilmore there.”
