Haven’t seen Happy Gilmore in about 20 years, but it still sticks in my mind as one of Adam Sandler’s better early comedies. It’s got that classic '90s goofy charm—loud, over-the-top, and totally unhinged in the best way. There’s a lot of yelling, absurd physical comedy, and of course, the iconic Bob Barker fight scene.
Looking back, it’s definitely rough around the edges and some of the humor hasn’t aged perfectly, but there’s still something likable about it. Not a masterpiece, but a fun, ridiculous sports comedy that knew exactly what it was. Still worth a nostalgic rewatch if you’re in the mood.
