Happy Gilmore
A film by Dennis Dugan
w/ Adam Sandler, Christopher McDonald, Julie Bowen
Rated PG13
1hr 32min
All Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) has ever wanted is to be a professional hockey player. But he soon discovers he may actually have a talent for playing an entirely different sport: golf. When his grandmother (Frances Bay) learns she is about to lose her home, Happy joins a golf tournament to try and win enough money to buy it for her. With his powerful driving skills and foulmouthed attitude, Happy becomes an unlikely golf hero -- much to the chagrin of the well-mannered golf professionals.
Sports comedies can be a tricky genre to pull off but Happy Gilmore manages to hit it in the hole more often than not.

The comedy is never more than sudden, outsized explosions of violence from the otherwise placid, childlike Happy. But director Dugan maximizes the laughs through careful timing and counterpoint.
