If only it had a G rating

Rating: 4/10 (15 January 2007)

Sorry but I thought this was rubbish. I'm complimenting it with a 4.
Sandler revisits some of his Happy Gilmore characteristics which push this beyond the boundary of the family movie at the same time as restraining it from being effectively humorous for adults. I quote: "muthaf..." (change scene) I don't have children, but I wouldn't want them to ask me to complete that "sentence". In any case this theme has been revisited many times, even the Butterfly Effect comes to mind.
Yes I cried at the end, but only because I thought SANDLER WAS GOING TO DIE!!! };) (evil grin with pirate hat) Really fell flat for me. Some of the acting was atrocious. Story fell apart. Still love Winkler.
If there were a third as many sex references and less poorly disguised swearing then this would probably have made a great family movie. Unfortunately it just ends up serving no particular audience at all.
