This and Billy Madison are hands down Sandler's funniest film, not his best or my favorite, but I never laughed as hard during another of his films.

Used to be just about my favorite movie as a kid, but seeing it again grown up, I realize that the whole thing is REALLY unrealistic and surreal. Not the shots which obviously are supposed to be, but Sandler's actions too.

Still love it though.

Ugh this film always brings out the same identikit conversation when I'm around

Person: Lets watch Happy Gilmore, that film is brilliant!!
Me: No
Person: You don't like Happy Gilmore!!
Me: No I hate it.

I then get stared at as if I'm covered in a coating of super AIDS. Sigh, I really hate you Adam Sandler.

Bah how can you hate Happy Gilmore, it's too silly to actually hate!

Always cracks me up every time. Favorite part: Sandler giving back the gator to his coach scene. A-

Just one of the many major differences between this and the dreck called Click...this movie knows what it is, and sticks to its guns. My second favorite Sandler movie, next to Billy Madison.

I probably would have appreciated this a lot more in the pre-Apatow days. Humor like this simply doesn't pass for "crude and funny" like it used to. Now it's just "crude and hopefully funny because everyone acts mentally impaired"

Probably the only 'classic' Sandler comedy I enjoy. It's stupid but funny at least.

My favorite '90s Sandler is The Wedding Singer.
