Not exactly brain food but it's still, in my honest opinion, Adam Sandler and Dennis Dugan's best work.

In my opinion Happy Gilmore is one of the best comedies of all time as almost every joke in this film is pure quotable gold, I also love Ben Stiller's role in this film as the senior citizens home caretaker he is just so brutal hahahaha

A comedy classic with some great lines, especially one very memorable comeback from Mr. Sandler himself.

A fresh comedy that isn't for everyone but a must see for those who just love slap-stick comedy.

One of Adam Sandler's best movies. It's freaking hilarious and had me laughing out loud throughout the entire thing. This is a must watch for all people who like to laugh.

This movie is o outstanding, and hilarious with a nice plot. Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller together are outright hilarious! .

Adam Sandler's style of humor usually isn't humorous to me. Happy Gilmore is the sole exception. This movie is genuinely funny and a laugh riot to watch.

A comedy that carries someone hilarious scenes with one liners that you'll remember for a long time. Not a piece of genius but definitely a hole in one.

A genuinely funny and enjoyable film. Has a great story filled with some laughs, as well as some drama. The characters are interesting and rootable, the villain is dastardly, etc. All in all, Happy Gilmore is truly a hole in one!

Just about the only good Adam Sandler movie (I'm talking to you, Grown Ups!). Happy Gilmore is funny at times, and the message is pretty heartfelt. It's not a classic for the ages, but Happy Gilmore is still up to par.

It's Adam Sandler's best movie by a mile. It's really funny but I don't know why the hell this movie's metascore is 31. If you ask me it's worth at least a 70. And Ben Stiller is VERY FUNNY.

One of the funniest films in Adam Sandler's career and also one of the funniest films of the 90's! It's vulgar humor at it's finest! It may not be Caddyshack, but it is a good time, and you will laugh till you cry!!!

Prime example of metacritic failing to review properly. There isnt 3 reviews on this entire website I agree with, ESPECIALLY albums and movies. Screw you metacritic get your stuff together.

Happy Gilmore was awesome for an Adam Sandler movie. Even though it's predictable, it's so entertaining!! Richard Kiel is even in it! He's pretty scary, whether he's in James Bond or not!

I dunno what the critics were on, but this was an excellent movie! Seriously, the critics need to stop being such hardasses and learn to laugh.

Typical Adam Sandler film, awful product placement, people getting hurt for cheap laughs, celebrity cameos, and an awful script. It is kinda sad that people pay to see this

If you just read the reviews above, from real critics, just ignore them. Happy Gilmore is about as funny as movies get. Watch this, even with low expectations, and it could become one of your favorites.

It is not completely dismissible like many of his more recent films. Shallow entertainment at best, but at least it is funny. Still not for most who aren't Sandler fans.

Very stupid movie with many unrealistic scenes. The humour is also for the masses.

I suppose those who enjoy Adam Sandler's shtick will find this film to be a comedy masterpiece. However those who don't will call it a disjointed mess.

Am I missing something here? Having not seen many Sandler films I was told to by a friend to watch this as it was one of his best films.
I though it was about as funny as a fire in an orphanage and will never trust my friends opinion again!!

Happy Gilmore has a decent story and some good comedy, but its also cliched and cheesy time and time again. Its an average movie good for some laughs.

This is Adam Sandler's best movie of all time. I have no idea why the critics are such hardasses when it comes to good Adam Sandler movies. Happy Gilmore is an awesome golf comedy and has almost non-stop hilarity.

This is easily Sandler's best movie. There are a lot of memorable characters, but my favorite is probably Ben Stiller's Hal. I recently read an article on Hal and I forgot how funny he was. I'd really like to see him get his own spin-off.
