Comment: I don't like Adam Sandler, but I have to admit that 50 first dates was an extremely sweet movie.

Comment: Don't get me started on Paulie Shore and Rob Schneider, they're are considered a million times worse than Sandler. The weird thing is that no matter Snadler appears in a film Schneider always show up, the only films he didn't appear in were Punch Drunk Love and Funny People.

Comment: I actually LIKE Happy Gilmore, one of my favorite Sandler films in fact.
Same With The Wedding Singer
And I actually liked The Waterboy (but I will say Kathy Bates is the best in that movie)
I also liked Big Daddy
And Click

Comment: I felt Click was the only time I accepted the "It was all a dream" cliche. It would have been too dark to just end it like that. Other than that, never liked any of his other films.

Comment: Adam Sandler movies I actually like: "The Wedding Singer," "Little Nicky," and "50 First Dates"
I don't love any of his movies, but the rest I don't like at all... "Punch Drunk Love" is okay...
Does that make me weird?
Strangely enough, I actually have interest in the thing w/Jennifer Aniston...

Comment: @That Fellow Seems like Eight Crazy Nights would be a good review for you to do, or for you and Hewy to do. I've seen it. Not the best film, but at least it had decent animation. Some of the songs (yes, there are songs in the film) are okay, but nothing special. In my opinion, it's nothing special. 2 1/2 out of 5.

Comment: I thought I was the only person who didn't care for Sandler comedies. @Jordan When did That Fellow give Sandler a bad name? He just pointed out the flaws in Sandler's movies and gave respectfully gave sound reasons for why he personally didn't like most of them. He even said that Sandler had a lot of potential to be a great actor at the end of the video, he just wasn't picking the right scripts. You have to admit, whether you enjoy it or not, the comedy in most Sandler movies is pretty juvenile and repetitive.

Comment: Boooo! Stop giving Adam Sandler a bad name. This like your Willy Wonka bash all over again. Sure he made some garbage (bad movies) but at least he can be funny in his better movies and is better than how Eddie Murphy been doing for this past decade making bad movie after bad movie than Adam Sandler.
Even in The Funny People soundtrack he did a good cover of one my favorite Beatles/John Lennon song "Real Love". That I give him credit for. and do have some agreements with Morgan But have I have not seen every movie Adam Sandler.

Comment: This is where I have to get a tad defensive. Happy Gilmore wasn't that bad. It's a typical underdog story with a Bob Barker fight. That's what makes it a classic in my books. Still, I do agree with you on some of these films. Zohan was terrible and the only thing I found enjoyable was Rob as the Arab. If the movie was about him, I would have liked it. Big Daddy didn't bother me and Mr. Deeds was ok. Waterboy was annoying and Click had some good moments but I wish it strayied from the raunchier moments. The second half did get better but the whole ending was just one big slap to the forehead. Still, killing his character off was a risky choice. While I have yet to see Punch Drunk Love, I will add that to my must view before I get killed by the fans list. Also, like the title card. The design of Adam just cracks me up with the big eye and Invader Zim-ish look.

Comment: At least you and I agree on one thing, Mr. Coat. "Punch Drunk Love" was worth a look. By the way, how come you passed up "Eight Crazy Nights?" Sure, I consider that one of the worst animated movies ever made, but if you're going to talk about Sandler movies that you don't like, why leave that one out?
That Fellow: Because I haven't seen it. Wouldn't be fair to Mr Sandler if I criticised a work of his I haven't seen. ;-)Name: Jaimetud

Comment: Am I the only one that didn't like Funny People. I couldn't root for any of the characters in the movie, there were all an asshole is some way. Also the movie went way longer than it needed to be, the third act was a disaster imo.

Comment: Do not see Grown Ups. Horrible film. The new film of his looked good when I saw the first trailer, but I saw a teaser on TV that showed his usual dumb visual jokes that will ruin the film.

Comment: I agree with you here! I've only seen 2 Adam Sandler films (Click and Spanglish) and they were both terrible.
