Once Upon a Time.... Adam Sandler made really funny movies, and Happy Gilmore was one of the funniest. Rating might be high, but this film is just that funny, plus extra for Ben Stiller's hilarious small role, and the easy on the eyes Julie Bowen (if you watch Modern Family, you'd know her as the mom Claire).

Comedies rely on one thing and one thing only to succeed; laughs. A comedy movie can have shitty acting, shitty special effects, and shitty romance but as long as it makes you laugh it was a success.

"Happy Gilmore" did not make me laugh once.

There is no movie I quote more, no movie I've watched more, and no movie I love more. In fact, when my three brothers and I shared a room, we watched a Happy Gilmore VHS every night for roughly a year until it was ruined. I can recite nearly every line and when I'm bored, I can close my eyes and I have the option of watching this movie in my head.

I often say Reservoir Dogs is my favorite film, but I'm going to call bullshit on myself and say that it is probably Happy Gilmore.

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Sandler's best film. Everything works, even if some of the humor is lowbrow. Weathers and McDonald are very good, but it's a Ben Stiller cameo that steals the movie. He is just so funny, and mean.

The fight between Happy and Bob Barker is epic. One of the comedies I could watch every single day if it was on TV.

I think this is one of the few Adam Sandler vehicles that, if I was strapped to a chair and forced to watch Adam Sandler films, you wouldn't have to put a gun to my head to watch. Enjoyable comedy that isn't as funny as I remember, but still stands as his best film, by a mile.

Well this was back when Adam Sandler made laugh out loud funny movies.. I quote this movie more than any other and sure wish their were more Sandler movies like this. You willl want this oldie but goody in your collection

It's all in the hips.

The only reason there are so many positive reviews of this film is the Bob Barker fight.

The first half or so falls somewhat flat. I used to find it funny, but the humor was dated on the re-watch. Everything from the Bob Barker fight on, however, is pretty much gold.

The Masters is on so the best film to watch this weekend is Happy Gilmore...GET IN THE HOLE BALL!!

Adam Sandler is up staged by a small (near cameo size) role from Ben Stiller. He displays all the comedic skills that Sandler lacks. Comedies should be measured by laughs and this movie provided very little.
