Adam Sandler is a great actor in more serious roles, but his comedy is pretty cringe. I love Happy Gilmore.
I would agree with this statement.
Adam Sandler can act really act in dramatic roles (Punch-Drunk-Love, Reign over Me, Uncut Gems, etc)
When Sandler produces a comedy, yeah; it tends to be bad. When Sandler is just the actor, it’s a different story.
Props to Sandler to realizing that movie studios will pay him money to go on location to shoot movies and hire his friends.
Punch Drunk Love is great, and it came from watching his other movies and pulling on an underlying unexplored thread.
The ending of Click really threw me for a loop.
I think he’s also quite good in uncut gems, but my opinion isn’t final. I only made it through 35 minutes of the movie so far and am still recovering from the stress eight months later.
Yes! He was fantastic in The Meyerowitz Stories (2017).
