Sandler tees off another hit

Rating: 8/10 (1 September 2014)

This film really took a rubbishing. Really you can take Adam Sandler or you can't take him. In his second lead effort, we're not really in it for the acting stakes, given his reputation as a thespian. This is a very funny and addictive movie, centered around a gifted golfer, Happy (Sandler) who can knocks balls off tees for amazing distances, but when it comes to accurate soft putting, and getting it in the hole, there lies his weakness. Sandler also ends up with another hottie, too, yes that ice skating scene was intimate. Going pro, he's also stealing the thunder from current champion (Mcdonald). Richard "Jaws" Kiel, missing a body part, marks a much absent and thankful return as Happy's ex boss, where Carl Weathers as Happy's tutor, meets a tragic end as a result of one of Sandler's stupid pranks. Near the end of the film, we're very much entering Caddyshack territory, as we know what's gonna ensue. Truly this is a goofy and inventive comedy, with some great gags. Definitely, to rent and take home, where most of you won't be disappointed, especially kids, which I truly recommend this to all.
