Happy Gilmore

 7.5/10

Happy Gilmore stars Adam Sandler as a hockey player named Happy. He has a lot of heart and a super powerful shot but the only problem is that he stinks at skating and has never made the team. One day while messing around he discovers that he has a 400 yard golf swing and starts getting into golf. His motivation is to make money to buy back his grandmother’s house which she lost because of not paying taxes. Happy joins the Pro Golf Tour and definitely doesn’t fit in at all because of anger issues and crazy antics. The simple story works for the movie and is pretty fun. Sandler is good in his way of being funny which is a lot of yelling and being obnoxious. The scene with Bob Barker is particularly hilarious. Happy Gilmore may not be a deep movie but it is entertaining and turns a really boring sport into a funny movie.

MPAA Rating:

PG-13
