Adam Sandler: Yay or Nay?
I think Adam Sandler is pretty much a love him or hate him kind of actor. I find most of his stuff to be stupid and not funny, but some of my friends absolutely love him. I don't hate everything he does. I liked Airheads and when he did Opera Man on SNL, but most of his work I just don't see the appeal.
|
He's funny as hell! I say yay all the way.
|
The only movie worth a shit that he's ever been in is Punch Drunk Love. His other movies aren't funny at all and every director that has him cast simply makes him play the same character in every movie. "Get really pissed and yell at the bad guy." Ha ha. That, and talk with that really annoying voice.

I've yet to see Punch Drunk Love, but I'd like to. I've heard several good things about it. I meant to mention it in the original post, but I basically would have said that I didn't enter it into my equation.
Besides, his role in that movie is obviously a break from his normal roles anyway. |
Oops, Double post
|
He's an every now and again guy for me. I can't sit down and watch every single Adam Sandler movie one after the other, but I can sit down and enjoy his movies like Happy Gilmore and The Waterboy every now and again.
|
Hell yeah, Adam rocks. The first time I watched Happy Gilmore I think I broke something I was laughing so fucking hard.
|
His movies generally aren't really all that great, in my opinion. The first few I watched were pretty funny, but then after that, I realized how static his acting is. The only differences between any of the characters he plays are the clothes they wear. That, and like what Laser said, his "voice" really grates on the nerves after a while.
|
Happy Gilmore was the only one I'd watch again, and just because I love the Bob Barker fight scene

I never really liked that kind of humour.. Seems a little childish, so it's a big Nay for me. *shrug*
|
If im in the mood, he's a funny actor.
|
I'm not particularly fond of him, even though some of his movies are okay. So I voted Nay
|
mad funny
only stuck up too serious people think he sux. |
Most of the time I hate the films he is in. But the Wedding Singer was very good. I think he is someone who could just fade a way in the next few years.
|
Adam Sandler is the MAN! by far the best move was happy gilmore...by far. Wedding singer was ok...didnt like Drew barrymore very much.
|
I think he is pretty funny but his movies come up short.
|
I'm not even sure why he's famous. Never found him all that funny.
|
I think he's a complete moron and I hate all of his movies.
|
I'm with sixate - he's worthless
|
best movie was waterboy
|
Like any comedian.
Sometimes, he hits it...and I laugh my ass off And sometimes, he don't...and I turn the channel. I don't usually go out of my way to see his movies in the theater, I usually wait for the video. But, he's decent enough. |
Sandler has flopped harder then any comedian I can think of. Its suprising that somebody who started off so funny could drastically fall into the unfunny category so abruptly.
|
Don't find him funny at all, in fact I think he's a sad, sad individual, and I feel sorry for his parents knowing that they brought unto the earth such an unfortunate human being.
|
He was filler on SNL, nuf said...C'mon folks, we need better than that type of panderous comedy.
Gimme Robin Williams any day. He successfully made the big transition. Well done neighbor boy. Tiburon Rocks! |
Love him "Shampoo is good"

I have to say yay, because Happy Gilmore is one of my favourite comedy movies ever, and I really liked Punch Drunk Love and Billy Madison. Other than those movies, The rest of his stuff (not including SNL) is sub-par. |
Wow, this is a pretty split crowd... I guess I'm not really that suprised though... it's still pretty interesting though.
|
i'd say Yay
i liked the wedding singer happy gilmore and some others, didn't care much for little nickey & the waterboy |
As long as he doesn't waste his talent doing crap like Puch Drunk Love he is outstanding...even Little Nicky has big laughs in it [sure not a great movie, but some funny stuff].
|
i´ve got to say NAY.
his gags make me laugh, to a point... after that, i find him astoundingly annoying. but, in Punch Drunk Love... i thought he was really great and daring. but hey, thats one movie. |
I'm not an Adam Sandler fan. I did enjoy Billy Madison and the Wedding Singer, but I just really don't enjoy any of his other movies.
|
"You no want breakfast?"

In fact, that's one of my favorite movies that he has been in, if not my favorite. |
I don't like "Adam Sandler Movies", like Big Daddy, or Water Boy or any of that kind of rubbish. Not to my taste.
But I really liked Punch Drunk Love... he was really very good in that! Surprised me! Maybe it's showing that he starting to mature as an actor? Or maybe not? So for moment...Adam Sandler, Nay. |

That movie was so horrible that I cant believe anybody would admit to enjoying it :p |
Adam is funny as hell. sometimes his movies are a bit bla but they have shining moments.
|
When he isn't doing his retarded voices, I like him. Wedding Singer, Happy Gilmore, Punch Drunk Love are all really good movies.
Everytime I see Little Nicky or Waterboy, I want to reach through my TV and punch him in the throat... |
I say yay.
|
He's just recycling the same material over and over again. I can't stand the guy.
Peaked on SNL. |
