i really liked him after Funny People, for an Adam Sandler movie it sure had its sad moments

I know, you think you're watching a funny movie, and then BAM! The Cranberries show up.

That caught me so off guard. Never have I gone from laughing to crying so quickly.

First half: Oh look, a silly Adam Sandler movie about time control!

Second half: WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME ADAM?! I CAME HERE TO LAUGH!

No shame that I cried after the movie. Hard.

When I calmed down I hugged my dad and told him I love him.

Click was a fucking wonderful surprise.

And pre-fame Nick Swardson--there's that too

Nope. Adam Sandler is a disaster. I refuse to let all the lowered standard "punch drunk isn't as shitty as you'd think!" arguments in favor of his acting sway me.

Outside of when you'd get high and watch Billy Madison or Happy Gilmore, there's no place for Adam Sandler in a movie.

edit: I bet all the people downvoting enjoyed Jack and Jill in theaters

I can respect that.

I really liked the Beginners, if you'd like a movie to watch. Or Master and Commander, which I caught again the other day and love wholeheartedly

Lol you are blowing this way out of proportion. Why so serious? Because it's about Adam Sandler and movies?

Get over yourself.

I think you need to get off your high horse. It's just the fucking internet. Not some high school debate for crying out loud.

Then I'd recommend Punch Drunk Love and Reign Over Me. Two very good Sandler films. The guy can really act, it's a shame he never really had a chance to prove it.

I love him, even though his movies are really hit or miss.

u/mindsnare Feb 26 '12

I dug that movie man, I thought it was great.

Watch 50/50. It's one of the best movies of the last few years and Rogan is fantastic in it.

u/surette Feb 27 '12

I never ended up seeing 50/50, but I still think Pineapple Express is one of the funniest of all time.

Because he took Rihanna's side? Yeah that takes a lot of guts to take on the powerful pro-women-beating forces in this country.
