Dude was funny once. He's extremely lazy. He can't even show up to an interview and not look like shit. I've never seen an A lister so empty of fucks to give.

Dude gets PAID tho.
 
To everyone saying that he's still banking mad money:

After so much money, don't you think you'd have some self-respect for yourself as an actor? I mean, his work was never art or whatever, but he's just cranking out the most mindless, vile, terrible human fecal matter shit dogshit ass-shit movies one after another.

I mean, after you made so much money, what really is there left to do? Can't you make money by attempting to make good movies?
 
Why does everyone keep saying Jack and Jill was a money laundering scheme? Is this a joke I don't get?

Also, Wedding Singer is his only movie worth watching. Gilmore and Madison were funny when I was a kid. Everything else of his has been absolute garbage.

I honestly think he considers himself virtually retired at this point. Any movies he does are just showing up, hanging out with his friends, and then cashing a check. The people that still pay to watch his stuff are the real problem.

Jack and Jill was just egregious in its advertising and lack of subtlety.

And the folks at Redlettermedia do a good job of outlining its gross excesses.

The review is amazing; if you want to know why people were saying that Sandler is a fraud that laundered money through his movie, then watch the video.
 
Funny People turned out to be a documentary...he really doesn't have it in him anymore and he's just going through the motions. I almost feel sorry for hi if he wasn't loaded as fuck.

Depends on your definition of "his" movie I guess.

50 First Dates, Spanglish, Funny People, Wedding Singer, Anger Management. Probably a couple others in there I am forgetting. Nothing wrong with those movies imho. Could probably throw that Drunk Love or whatever in there too, wasn't my cup of tea but wasn't a bad movie.

Then again I cannot wait for 3 Stooges to hit theaters so meh.

Yeah, he's done a lot of stuff that hasn't been total crap. It's like he's trying to shit out as many crappy movies as he can before some sort of time limit.

Reign over Me wasn't a bad movie either.


Who is George Simmons?

It's his character from Funny People and a loose representation of himself.



What he really needs to do is stay away from the writing side of things His production credits aren't so hot either. He needs to stay in front of the camera.
 
sandler only makes a few kinds of movies, family (jack&jill, the story time one), standard comedies where he plays himself, character movies (thats my boy, little nicki) and the odd serious role.

his family movies are usually the worst of the bunch, followed by the character films which are hit or miss. imo he hasnt changed over the years but he has done more family garbage as of late.
 
Happy Gilmore was his last good movie....

I'm probably going to catch some heat for this, but I thought Grown-ups was a decent movie. Granted, I got to see it for free, but I wouldn't have felt like my money was wasted if I paid to see it.

Matinee price, at least.
