Wedding Singer, Happy Gilmore, and Punch Drunk Love are the only good films he's been involved with. Waterboy and Click are ok at best. Everything else he's been involved with though is more or less cinematic diarrhea.

Sandler is still irredeemable. The occasional performance (ie, 2, punch drunk love and Uncut Gems, hardly a record) doesn't redeem his shocking acting career. When Sandler makes films, he makes this. And does it repeatedly. You're a complete fool.

It's just he does alot of stinkers throughout the years unfortunately but he DOES have alot of talent even with solid movies like Grown Ups.

The only person that's "a cOmPlETE foOl" is yourself for saying and believing the nonsense you're saying, that's for sure. Just stop hating on Sandler.

My favourite Kermode rant I have discovered thus far - and so, so true!

“At some point Adam Sandler will do something good again.” He was right! Uncut Gems is fantastic

"we both knew what had happened" "nothing"

"We both knew what had happened in that cinema..."!

In short, Mark got blue balled by Adam Sandler

"Waiting to sneeze" good title

I'd like to see what Mark Kermode thinks of the Red Letter Media review of Adam Sandler as a con artist, not a film maker.

90 minutes of waiting to sneeze 😂

I cant believe the guy who made Magnolia and There Will Be Blood is an Adam Sandler fan.

I see Marks on the fence.

He's right about Adam Sandler. Punch Drunk Love is brilliant. Loved Sandler in The Wedding Singer too. But what is he thinking lately??

Reign Over Me is absolutely fantastic. Adam Sandler is brilliant in it and it's a shame he'd rather churn this sort of crap out because he is capable of producing a performance.

Michael Corleone would be disappointed in al here He might even have killed him for this

his films are cheap to make but this film had a 69 million budget.... he pays himself 2o million fee per movie just for acting.. its his production company. then his mates get millions for cameos, add to that constant product placing means even if the film does not make lots at the box office, they still win.

Jake?

kermode's rants are so entertaining

I was almost disappointed that That's My Boy didn't break Top 10, so we didn't get a true Kermodian on it. As it is, We Got This Covered have a beautiful rant for that film.

If we want see Adam Sandler be good in a film again is only when he's not trying to be funny in it. Punch, Drunk Love is a perfect example.

Better labelled a drama than a comedy, good film. Terrible drama because it looks like a comedy, terrible comedy because it's just uncomfortable in its script, terrible script because it doesn't know what it is... But the drama beneath it is straight forward and reaches its natural conclusion with some humorous side-gags.

Right, I'm no fan of Adam Sandler on any level BUT I must say this. He was fucking excellent in Funny People. I'll also say this, I think its his best on screen performance and as such is far better than Punch Drunk Love..

Product Placement: The Movie

Did adam Sandler really make Punch Drunk Love though? PT anderson is exceptional, he has coaxed excellent performances from multiple actors who have never came close to that with other directors. Tom Cruise, Marky Mark

Just because he wasn't terrible in Punch Drunk Love doesn't mean he was 'brilliant' in it. He was passable. That's all.

At least the usher was sure Mark wasn't going to be videoing the film, it was so bad not to be worth videoing.

Im with kermode on that one...definate physical sense of revoltuion at waiting too long for a laugh. Staring at the sun does make you sneeze tho XD

Ben Stiller played Adam Sandler very well in Tropic Thunder. You might say he went full r~tard.

Pacino's role is obviously a parody. Do you seriously think he would put that much clown make-up on?? It's. A. Parody. He. Knows. What. He's. Doing.

Either A. Pal Pacino is terribly stupid - doubtful, or he thought he was in a terrible skit for a very unfunny TV show. B. He was paid a LOT of money. I mean a L O T... like a ship full of money. C. He hates people D. He wanted to make one unequivocally bad film. E. He's done something very bad and was blackmailed to do the film. F. Everyone's entitled to make one take your breath away, totally illogical, insane bad judged decision. - this could be his.

It's obviously a parody cameo. Do you think Pacino really has a thing about donuts?? Watch the movie.

The thinking behind this film must have been "Adam seems to be the same person in all his films, let's show his wonderful character acting skills.." And in that, they made Adam Sandler become... Adam sandler in a fat suit, with a lisp and a wig! I saw a film starring Richard prior when I was 10, called Dynamite chicken.. Up until recently I have described it as the worst film I have ever seen. Jack and Jill felt like my eyes and ears were being raped. Surely Pacino knew this was a Turkey.

Jack and Jill is awful but I have to say, the way in which Mark describes he wanted to laugh in this film is quite similar to the way in which I didn't laugh watching The michael cera movie, Youth in revolt. I remember watching it and I didn't laugh once, I wanted to laugh but it wasn't what I wanted it to be. 90 mins of un-funnyness and I sat there at the end wondering why on earth I didn't laugh once. Jack&Jill is crucially worse but Youth in revolt ain't good.

Adam Sandler obviously has quite an amount of absolutely useless movies. But c'mon he totally had several decent movies some of them were genuinely great.

this film is pacino's worst career move since revolution in the 80s now that was a bad movie!
