Adam Sandler may not be the all-round actor who can deliver many
different comic performances but he does have a certain comic style.
Happy Gilmore is a failed Hockey player who cannot skate and has a lack
of any self-discipline. His life seems to be a complete failure until
he finds out he can hit a golf ball over 400 yards. At first you might
feel little empathy for Happy as he obviously deserves all the bad luck
he gets from the way he treats his friends. But the introduction of
Shooter to the screen suddenly makes you root for the underdog. The
plot is thrown together to get the most out of Sandler and his antics
on screen. Some of the scenes are totally unbelievable particularly
when a car is driven on to the golf course to run down Happy! But no
matter how many times I see the film it can still make me laugh.
