Reviews of Happy Gilmore 1996
-
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

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).

Do I even need to say it? Carl Weathers and Ben Stiller make this worth sitting through... until one dies and the other disappears entirely with no resolution to that whole Grandmother Quilt-Making Sweatshop thing. Real good job there, Mr. working class hero! I guess the only grandmother who mattered was your own.
This movie could in fact be a lot worse but that doesn't save it from being seriously screwed up in ways that make me have to flash…

It's all in the hips.

Alligator wrestling scene.

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.
