Golf Movie Review - Happy Gilmore

Next up is Happy Gilmore, starring Adam Sandler, who plays an ex-hockey player with a bad temper who discovers he can hit the ball 400 yards with his unique run and smash it style. It’s totally unbelievable, and a bit stupid, but there are some funny scenes including one where Happy and Bob Barker from the Price is Right have a bit of punch up. Again its golf outlaw vs the establishment and Shooter McGavin played by Christopher McDonald does a sweet job of playing the golf snob. There’s a very unnecessary side plot with Happys grandmother, only saved by Ben Stiller making a short appearance as the old peoples home enforcer. You can definitely watch it twice and there’s also a clip or two on the wwwgolfuncut.com website. The shear absurdity is both what makes it funny and prevents it from being any funnier. Now that I’ve confused myself with that last sentence it’s time to watch the next golf movie video.
