A pleasant surprise after Billy Madison

Rating: Null/10 (8 November 1998)

After I had seen Billy Madison, I thought it to be all over between me and Adam Sandler's comedy. But then, shown to me was Happy Gilmore, a movie with a decent plot and much, much more intelligent humor. The other characters are not tailored to make Sandler look less like an idiot than he should look like (Billy Madison), but rather they are great elements of the story, and Sandler himself is a more sensitive, intelligent person in this one, and even after toning himself down he is able to execute a hilarious performance.
(to all billy madison fans I mean no offense)
