Haven’t seen too many Sandler movies, but the ones I’ve seen were just awful.
I loved Happy Gilmore. Read the plot for this one. AWFUL.
“Uncut Gems” is by far his best movie, IMHO.
It is not a comedy. He portrays a NYC diamond/jewelry merchant. It gets a 91% Rotten Tomatoes rating.
It also was nominated for many awards.
It is not like any of his other stupid comedy movies.
HOWEVER, Happy Gilmore is by far his best comedy movie. It is silly, stupid, slap stick “guy” humor. Most women hate this movie. Just like they don’t think Caddyshack is funny.
FY, IMHO opinion the funniest scene in the original Happy Gilmore is when he gets paired up with Bob Barker in a Pro/Am golf tournament.
“you want a piece of me old mam!”
It is classic slap stick humor, not that much different than the Stooges.
