Crude but funny.

Rating: 6/10 (16 June 2007)

Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) had always wanted to be a professional ice hockey player. But somehow, he just could not make it. Then one day, his grandmother's personal belongings and the house she had lived in were both being confiscated because of not paying taxes for a long time.
That became the reason why he make the unexpected move of from someone who had always wanted to be an ice hockey player to a professional golfer, in order to get back his grandmother's house. He immediately wowed the audiences with his long shots and the occasional eccentricity he displayed on the golf course.
But with all the hype surrounding Gilmore's popularity, someone is not happy at it. He is Shooter McGavin. The professional golfer who has so used to winning titles is facing the threat of someone who does not fit into the golfing world. He tried ways to topple Gilmore and while initially the former had succeeded, Gilmore decided to buck up ahead of an important tournament.
Well, whatever happened to McGavin...is almost everyone's guess.
It may be crude at times to see Adam Sandler (who played Gilmore) fighting like an ice hockey player on the golf course whenever someone provoked him, but overall, the movie is just funny. Thankfully the real golfing world is not like that!
