minus-squareZannsolo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up47arrow-down3·2 months agoAdam Sandler is a great actor in more serious roles, but his comedy is pretty cringe. I love Happy Gilmore.
minus-squareShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.onelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17arrow-down1·2 months agoI would agree with this statement. Adam Sandler can act really act in dramatic roles (Punch-Drunk-Love, Reign over Me, Uncut Gems, etc) When Sandler produces a comedy, yeah; it tends to be bad. When Sandler is just the actor, it’s a different story. Props to Sandler to realizing that movie studios will pay him money to go on location to shoot movies and hire his friends.
