Happy Gilmore, produced by Subway and starring the same guy Sandler always plays

Rating: 1/10 (7 May 2010)

I'll admit, when I was 14 I enjoyed this movie. Watching it as an adult, I can understand perfectly why Gene Siskel walked out of the theater during this movie, the second walkout of his entire career. Sandler plays Happy Gilmore as the same character Sandler has ever played: a mercurial, boyish, sweet-talking violent sociopath. Some of the setups are mildly amusing (the fight with Bob Barker) but most off-putting to me, besides the violent rages Happy flies into every 30 seconds, is the blatant product placement. "Happy Gilmore" genuinely feels like an infomercial for Subway. I wonder if they funded the whole movie.
