For some reasimon I've never seen any one of his movies besides Happy Gilmore.

[edit] what the hell is a reasimon? I meant to type reason in case that wasn't clear.

A good follow up to that is uncut gems

What about The Cobbler? That one was unexpectedly charming.

Click was SO GOOD.

But I'm still a little mad at the betrayal by the marketing, making it seem super silly and goofy, leaving my young self unprepared for an emotional gut-punch. Lol

It effectively did what it set out to do though, being a modern fable about where our priorities in life ultimately lead us. I think of it often, especially the way it portrays the trap of career-worship, and when I catch myself wishing time away.

That silly movie had so much heart it might have actually shaped my young worldview a bit. Lol

Movie was based.

I completely agree! Idk how Sandler was able to convey so much emotion in such a silly movie, but he did an outstanding job.

Waterboy is a must

I think the first movie that I watched with him in it was Sandy Wexler… if that’s the name. I loved Richard Kiel’s performance in HG though.
