Well, I do have to take one small exception to the Adam Sandler criticism...
which will probably surprise you. Don't get me wrong, there's stuff he does that is absolutely sophomoric and not funny besides. BUT if he could ever get a hold of that core of sweetness that runs through work like THE WEDDING SINGER.
DEEDS, and even HAPPY GILMORE--and take out the sexual comedy--the guy could end up at the end of his career being considered one of the great ones. He probably won't, because he's got a) in some cases, bad taste and b) probably, some bad advisors..
.and even market tests supposedly show that the stupider, crasser, and less mature Adam Sandler's roles are, the more money his movies make. So that change ain't coming any time soon.
.. .
..but I am praying for him to become a Christian.
Think of it. That comedic timing, his absolute willingness to make a fool of himself..
.if he was doing it without any slime involved? Well, I do have to take one small exception to the Adam Sandler criticism.
..which will probably surprise you.
