I know it has been a while since my last movie review post. That does not mean I have not been watching movies; on the contrary, I have gone back to watch some old classics I still find funny in today's world.
Recently, I have discovered that I am beginning to find comfort in watching comedy movies, especially late at night, as it puts a smile on my face before bed. I know it might sound clichéd, but it even helps add some beauty to late-night dreams while keeping nightmares away.
First on my list was Happy Gilmore 2. I have to add that there is still room for improvement on Netflix when it comes to comedy movies, as there are only a handful of them. Only a few funny Kelvin Hart movies, and even my favourite comedy actor, Adam Sandler, has only grown-ups and a few others on Netflix. I suspect that is the reason for Netflix's recent shift into making more movies, as they are trying to widen the scope of movies they have on their platform. Hence, the making of Happy Gilmore 2.
Happy trying to get back to golf
For those who do not know it yet, Happy Gilmore is a 1998 comedy classic starring Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore, a hockey player with some pretty short temper issues, which leads to his disqualification from playing the sport of hockey after a physical confrontation on the hockey field.
Here is the funny thing, one would think that is the end for Happy, but it is only the beginning, as new information about his Grandma's house getting seized by the mortgage bank if she doesn't pay off her long overdue mortgage debt comes to light. In the desperate attempt to raise cash for his grandma, Happy ventures into golf when he sees how big the prize money is.
I must confess that what grabbed my interest in watching Happy Gilmore was the scene of how he hates it when people are slow, which reminds me of the blog story I read about a man beating his opponent on the golf course because he was wasting too much time. In chess, it's like giving your opponent a hot slap for thinking too much and wasting too much time when it is already a mate in one, and there is nothing he can do. No doubt that if it happens, it will be on the blogs of chess news.
Happy taking some golf coaching
In a nutshell, Happy Gilmore 2 is all based on Happy coming back to golf after years of not playing, just so he can raise money for his daughter to go to ballet school in Paris, which costs $300,000. The comedy in this movie is not only about happy moments, but the entire character in general, especially Shooter McGavin. If that is not enough to get you to watch the movie, just know that a bunch of stars like Eminem, Post Malone, and many more are playing funny roles. Happy Gilmore 2 brought in about 43 million views on the first day, and I am sure it must have gone up because I did not watch it on the first day.
After watching Happy Gilmore, I felt it would not be bad to watch another Adam Sandler movie. This time, a classic as well, and it was Don't Mess with the Zohan. It is a 2008 movie that talks about how a counter terrorist soldier fakes his death and runs away to America to chase his dream of cutting hair.
Although I watched the Zohan movie years ago, it was nice to watch it again, but this time I understood the inside jokes better. If you are looking for a comedy classic to watch over the coming weekend, you can never go wrong with a Sandler movie.
