Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Adam Sandler fans are sure to enjoy this no-brainer comedy, but everyone else is strongly advised to proceed with caution. Before scoring a more enjoyable hit with his 1998 comedy The Wedding Singer, the former Saturday Night Live goofball played Happy Gilmore, a hot-tempered guy whose dreams of hockey stardom elude him. But when he discovers his gift for driving golf balls hundreds of yards, he joins a pro tour to win the prize money needed to rescue his beloved grandma's home from IRS repossession. The trouble is, Happy's not so happy. He's got a temper that frequently flares on the golf course (he even dukes it out with celebrity golfer Bob Barker), but a retired golf pro (Carl Weathers) and a compassionate publicist (Julie Bowen) help him to perfect his putting game and adjust his confrontational attitude. How much you enjoy this lunacy depends on your tolerance for Sandler's loudmouthed schtick and a shocking number of blatant product-placement endorsements, but if you're looking for broad comedy you've come to the right teeoff spot. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Adam Sandler At His Best
The second you hear Adam Sandler's voice saying, "Hi, I'm Happy Gilmore," you know this is going to be a funny movie. From its humorous jokes and vulgar language to the crude and insane parts, this movie will keep you laughing the whole time. Along with well known actors such as Christopher McDonald (Shooter), Julie Brown (Virginia), Carl Weathers (Chubbs) and of course, Bob Barker, this movie delivers a punch and leaves the audience falling of their seats with laughter.

Rating: - You Mean This Is Not An Instructional Video For Golf?
I actually went to a driving range and tried the running swing...I think the club went farther than the ball.
O yeah, the DVD review. This is one of the classics you can pull out and watch once or twice a year, and it doesn't get stale. The humor is never ending - from Gilmore's run-ins with Shooter McGavin, to his interactions with golf coach Carl Weathers, to the male nurse running a nursing home sweat shop where Happy's grandmother has to live because she can't pay her property taxes. ...

Rating: - One of my favorites just got better
This is one of my all time favorite movies. It's even better now that it has HD quality.
Rating: - One of my top 10 Favorites!
This is by far the best Adam Sandler movie, if you don't have this in your collection you are missing out.
Rating: - Just plain dumb
I think I laughed once during the whole movie. It really surprises me how many people thought this movie was hilarious. I've only recently watched a couple Adam Sandler movies because I told a friend I didn't like Adam Sandler(I couldn't stand his routine on Saturday Night Live), so he challenged me to watch some.
He raved, and others of my friends raved, about Happy Gilmore. Well I watched it and I just thought it was so dumb. That idiotic voice he uses sometimes and beating everyone up...it ... Read More
