Movies: You Don’t Mess With the Zohan

Tonight  I went and saw the new Adam Sandler movie ‘You  Don’t Mess With the Zohan.’ I had read some bad reviews of it, but I really enjoyed it. I usually do enjoy the comedies that get a horrible review. This movie was a little over the top, but it was funny. It was not [...]

Movies: Adam Sandler Top Ten

Anyone who has read my other blog Confessions of a Sports Junkie knows that I like countdowns. Continuing the trend that I started earlier I will count down the top 12 Sandler movies so far. This is all due to the fact that his new movie ‘You Don’t Mess With the Zohan’ comes out tomorrow. [...]

Movies: 50 First Dates

This has to be one of my favorite Sandler movies. I am watching it as I write this, and I remember why I like it so much. Once again Drew Barrymore and Adam are paired together. They pick up where they left of in the Wedding Singer. They are great together, and the movie is [...]

Movies: Big Daddy

Last Night I watched Big Daddy. It had been a while since I had seen the movie. This was one of the first DVD’s that I purchased in college when I bought my first DVD player. I have seen this movie so many times that I burned out of it for a while. Looking back [...]

Movies: Mr. Deeds

Adam stars in yet another remake. This one is the updated version of the Frank Capra classic Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. Sandler plays the title role of Longfellow Deeds a simple country man who comes into billions and moves to New York City. He then falls for a girl (Winona Ryder), and cannot get [...]

Movies: The Wedding Singer

Here is a classic Sandler movie. Set in 1985 it follows Robbie Hart a singer who lost his rock career and now of course sings at weddings. He falls for Drew Barrymore (who is great in it by the way) who is planning her wedding to Miami Vice loving playboy. Will Robbie get the girl? [...]

Movies: The Longest Yard

This was one movie that I was really looking forward to when it came out. Look at the cast, it is great. Burt Reynolds in the remake of one of his classic films. Forget about it. Chris Rock is good in a supporting role as well. This movie updates the 70’s classic. The beginning is [...]

Movies: Anger Management

This is one of Adam’s movies that I like, but I don’t watch all that often. I guess it is the way that it ends that just seems fishy to me. I know it is movies and everything, but I don’t like how everything ends. I also don’t like the fact that the Yankees are [...]

Movies: The Waterboy

This movie is another classic. Adam plays a waterboy that has anger problems. His coach, played by Henry Winkler, decides to take advantage of that. Adam becomes a defensive sensation. Adam playing a role of a man with an anger management problem? Never. Maybe a future movie that I will look at can base the [...]

Movies: Billy Madison

This is the movie that started it all. ‘Going Overboard’ was a flop. He also had some parts in other movies, but Billy Madison is what put Adam Sandler on the map. This movie is far from a smart comedy. It is comedy on its lowest level. It is great though. You can’t always think. [...]
