My rundown of Adam Sandler movie-----
Guy with rich relatives, who is sensitive, but has a HUGE temper somehow comes into money.
There is some creep in his relatives company trying to take that money from him.
Throughout film Adam has all kinds of situations pop-up that let him spazz out and yell "funny" stuff before hitting someone.
He meets a girl - that complicates things
him and girl have a fight
he wins back girl while at the same time smiting evil money grubbnig guy.
ENd

Except for the Wedding singer they're all like that.

2. And except for Happy Gilmore
And The Waterboy

And Anger Management

And Punch Drunk Love

Actually, none of his movies are like that, are they? I'm not even sure which one you're referring to.

11. Uh...no, it's not.
Where are the with rich relatives?

Where does he come into money? (he takes up golf to earn money, but it doesn't pay off until the end)

Where is the creep in his relatives company trying to take that money from him?

I'll grant you, there's a girl and he does spaz out.

4. Have you seen Punch Drunk Love?
Or The Wedding Singer? Or 50 First Dates?

Sandler has a somewhat undeserved rep, in my opinion.

7. Check out those other two
they're really fine movies...

Is he often sophomoric? Sure... I guess it just doesn't bother me very much...

8. Huh? In Punch Drunk Love.
There's no comparison to his other movies there.

6. I've seen them all
Punch drunk love was pretty good, i give him credit for branching out, he should do it again. 50 first dates was cute, that walrus puking was gd funny, love the wedding sing...Don't wear that shirt!

10. Big Daddy should've been enough for the world to rally 'round his rocket
The one that was about to send Adam Sandler - inside his pressurized clear rocket chamber - into the Sun as he taps on the glass begging for mercy.
