The title of the film ‘Grown Ups’ is at the bottom in the centre. The writing is big, bold and blue, which stereotypes the male gender. The release date is directly under the title in a smaller, red coloured font. The brightness of the red and blue attract you to the poster straight away.  
The actors in the picture are going down a water slide, the actors are in order of popularity; starting with Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider. This also happens to be the order in which the names are written across the top from left to right. The text that the names are written are highlighting their surnames. Everyone associates these 5 actors with comedies, especially Adam Sandler. The closeness of the actors in the picture shows these men are close friends in the film, they are happy and laughing with each other, enjoying each others company. This shows this film will be funny and enjoyable to watch.
In the bottom right hand corner you can see the logo of the distribution company, Columbia Pictures. This makes the audience aware of whom they are and gives the company advertisement.
A website ‘www.GrownUps-Movie.com’ under the release date tells the audience they can access the film on other types of media such as a computer and go interactive to explore the film more.
The text slogan ‘Boys will be boys…some longer than others.’ Is a perfect slogan for this film considering the title is ‘Grown Ups’. It’s basically giving away the idea of these 5 grown men still being young boys no matter their age.
