    Comedy featuring Adam Sandler. He is a hockey player and must play golf to get his mothers house back. Funny moments and a great movie. There's just one problem, he cant putt.

    A comedy? Really. That's interesting. I should watch it again with this bit of information and see if I enjoy it a little more.

    The best movie Adam Sandler ever made. Which means it's just bad, not utterly bloody awful.

    this movie is funny no matter how many times you see it. just hearing Adam Sandler yell "YOUR GONNA DIE CLOWN!!!" and hitting a put-put golf obstacle repeatedly will never get old.

    This movie was hilarious, it had me splitting my sides. Unlike some Comedies that have just a handful of funny moments, this is filled to the brim with them. This is guaranteed to make you laugh. I highly recommend that you see it, at least once.

    Bob Barker beating up Adam Sandler is my favorite part of the movie. According to my friend numbah, the guy who played "Shooter" McGaven is a real jerk if you call him "Shooter"

    How is Apollo Creed gonna box with one hand?! Oh well, have you ever heard of a movie called "Sad Gilmore" starring Eve Sandler? or maybe its called something else but its funny and it has Shooter Mcgavin in it. And to this day i frequently do the Shooter Mcgavin hand gesture when the situation calls for it. Haha Ben Stiller doesnt belong in a mustache!

    Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler), a man who dreams of becoming a pro-hockey player but who has no talent at ice hockey, except for an incredible slap shot, finds that he does have a talent for golf and uses this talent to win enough money in order to save his grandmother's house from being sold to pay back taxes. Although not as good as Sandler's previous movie, "Billy Madison" (there's no penguins, for starters), "Happy Gilmore" is still a pretty funny film and likely to please fans of Sandler's weird and slightly-warped humour. The sub-plot featuring Ben Stiller as an orderly who runs a nursing home like a sweatshop is a perfect example of this. What stands out most about "Happy Gilmore", however, is that it actually manages to make golf seem interesting. With his hockey background, Gilmore turns his golfing tournaments into over-the-top madness by swearing, throwing around clubs and beating up other players, thus attracting scores of fans and it makes perfect sense, since while watch...

    This is a well acted, fun comedy suitable for the entire family, and especially those who enjoy the game of golf, buts it's still worth enjoying even if golf is not your sport..overall a fun movie worth seeing

    This is seriously the funniest golf movie I have seen. Adam Sandler is hilarious! There are a couple of corney parts but Sandler's lines are great. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves comedy and/or golf.

    Too bad the option of "zero stars" is not available for this turkey, just another mentally retarded and totally unfunny waste of film stock starring mentally retared and totally unfunny Adam Sandler. That guy is one of the most notable professional douchebags in the entertainment industry today, ranking among other advanced professional douchebags like Jim Carrey, Ashton Kutcher, Will Ferrell, Mike Myers, etc. Who makes up this guy's audience? 14 year old special education students? Even though my college classmate Christopher MacDonald was in this exercise in idiocy, which was the only reason why I watched it, that wasn't enough to provide any morbid interest in this crap at all.
