Been watching Sandler since the Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore days. I'm honestly shocked he's lasted this long. Dude has had a good run. Its only been in the last 5 or 6 years, that his movies weren't a certified blockbuster, and he's still had some in that time period.

This movie would have done way better without sandler.


I remember seeing the trailer with no prior knowledge of the film and was like :gladbron: until I saw his face.

Ill watch it on netlifx.

Yeah, I thought the concept was dope until I realized Sandler had has hands on it. Sandler usually takes good ideas and rearranges them to fit in with his brand and it ends up being horrible. I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry would have been a whole different movie before Sandler came on board

Dude has been a complete h@ck his whole career.

His humor has always been geared to 8 year-olds and frat boys.
The shelf-life of his humor really should've been the few years he had on SNL and then a couple of movies... but people wouldn't stop going to see his played out shyt. Billy Madison and Big Daddy are his best movies, IMO, but to be honest, I haven't really kept up with his stuff since he fell off hard in the early '00s.

That shelf life has lasted 20 plus years and probably some more... So maybe you don't know what you're talking about...

Obviously he's been in the business for a long time and up until the last few years, his movies were profitable but when was the last time he got good reviews? Personally, he hasn't done a movie in the last 10+ years that I thought looked interesting... other than Pixels and everyone is shytting on that.
