First, here’s some background information on Adam Sandler himself…

Adam Sandler (Sandman) was born in Brooklyn, New York on September, 9^th. 1966. When he was only 17 years old her took the stage at a comedy club in Boston spontaneously. There, he found he was a natural comic. Years go by and he experiences many different comedy related jobs. Now, he is one of the most famous hilarious actors. He can make you laugh until you’re blue in the face and clutching your stomach from the pain, in just the matter of seconds.

          In a movie I look for mainly how well the actors/actress’ play their roles; or in this case, how Adam Sandler fits in the movie. Also, the plot can mean a lot when rating a film.

In fifth place comes That’s My Boy. Adam Sandler plays as the main character, Donny whom is still in his teens. Donny fathers a son, Todd. Donny raises Todd as a single parent until Todd’s 18^th birthday. Donny and Todd haven’t seen one another for years and when Todd’s world starts to turn all around and be terrible on the day before his wedding, Donny shows up. Donny tries his heart out to become closer with his son and deal with how badly he has parented Todd.

In fourth comes Happy Gilmore, an old hockey player attempts to raise money for his under fire from the IRS grandmother. In order to save the house, he has to find a way to raise $270,000. Since Gilmore had experience in hockey, he managed to win a golf open by being able to drive the ball to phenomenal distances. Feeling threatened by Gilmore, Shooter McGavin begins to insult him. Gilmore’s new goal was to only beat Shooter rather than make the money, that he had forgotten completely about.

          In third is Big Daddy. A lazy man known as Sonny Koufax stars in the movie. He seems to have no purpose in life as well as having issues when trying to focus which makes his girlfriend leave him. So, in order to prove that he has the ability to be responsible, he adopts a kid. Instead of just trying to get his girlfriend back by getting the kid, things get complicated and he becomes attached to his son.

In second is Billy Madison, a film by Robert Simonds productions. In the film, Adam Sandler plays an immature and lazy man that must repeat grades 1-12 all over again in order to be able to inherit his fed up father’s hotel empire. In the film, Billy ends up winning but gives away the hotel empire to a dear friend, and someone who could take care of it more properly.

In first place comes Mr. Deeds. A small pizzeria owner and poet, known as Longfellow Deeds gains $40 billion from his deceased uncle. He then moves to the big city and begins to be overwhelmed with people continuously trying to gain some of his money. A TV reporter named Babe pretends to be a small-town girl in hope to gain money from Deeds. Babe ends up falling in love with Deeds, but later on Deeds discovers money can change a lot but it doesn’t need to change him.
