This is not only one of Adam Sandler's best movies but one of the best movies of all time in my opinion. I love Adam Sandler in almost everything he's in. Most people say Adam Sandler was only good in the 90s but I disagree even though I do think his older movies are better than the newer ones. This movie is a classic in its own right but not on the same level as Caddyshack. This movie has great slapstick, funny one liners, pretty good music, and some fine performances but Adam Sandler is the best thing about this movie. I also like the fact that it's one of the only times Adam Sandler shares the screen with Ben Stiller. I look forward to seeing them both in The Meyerowitz Stories. I love this movie!

This movie is great. it is one of my favorite movies. MY favorite part was shooter Mcgavin saying "I eat pieces of feces like you for breakfast" and happy goes "You eat pieces of feces for breakfast?" That is hilarious, the plot is great it goes along with the heroes journey almost exactly. The comedy is funny through the whole movie. A kid gets hit with a baseball machine, and air conditioner drops on an old lady. There isn't much of anything I didn't like about the movie. The part where Happy imagines Shooter making out with his grandma is just nasty, just why, Shooter why.I would absolutely recommend this movie to anyone looking for a great comedy.

Writers Tim Herlihy and Adam Sandler give us one of the most disappointing comedy movies of 1996. I have no idea how Dennis Dugan has agreed to direct such a story, most of which is just random scenes that are supposed to be funny. Unfortunately most of it is just not in place.Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) is a rejected hockey player, who tries to become a MVP in golf so that he can save his grandmother's house, which she's going to lose due to not paying back taxes. He then joins the PGA Golf Tour so he can get the money needed to help his grandma. Henceforth, the movie shows its full "potential".Unfortunately, Gilmore has a big rival in the face of the self-assured and envious Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald), who will do everything to stop Gilmore from winning the 1st place. Happy's advantage is that he can shoot golf balls for far distances, which ultimately makes him a podium challenger.I don't know whether the things that happened after Happy joined the Tour were written with the intention to be funny or just the writers put some random sounds and stuff not knowing what they were doing. When the golf balls are shot we can hear a sound, as if somebody shoots with a 45mm gun. While the ball is in the air, it seems like it's a Boeing 747 plane with an engine fail.The only moment in the movie that I actually laughed is when Happy, the sociopath playing golf, started hitting the alligator that was not an actual alligator, but a dog, judging on its coherent, typical dog barks. A car (VW Beattle?) runs over Gilmore with about 30-40 km/h and what happens? He's just having pains in the right shoulder, which he moves with not problem at all. After 5-10 shots he again shoots the balls with the same power as he did in the beginning. Adam Sandler is half a Superman in this movie - he even beats a man who can actually be his grandfather by means of age.A very predictable movie. It's only worth watching it just to see the alligator scene. 1/10 for Sandler, 4/10 for the movie.

Adam Sandler, before he was infamous for making some of the worst movies of all time! This is one of the Sandler movies that people add as an exception after insulting Adam Sandler's film career. I mean, it is really funny! It's unlike most of Sandler's other movies because of how hilarious it was, and Sandler was actually pretty good in the role, as, pretty much, a sociopath who plays golf!Although it is very funny, the movie is predictable, and it is really a by-the-numbers 90s comedy. It has the bully character, the unneeded romance, an old lady "sidekick", etc. I mean, if you just gave me a detailed synopsis of the plot, without any major spoilers, I would probably be able to tell you exactly what happens in the movie, plot wise, but that doesn't make it bad, because it's funny, and, in a comedy, that is all that really matters.
