"Happy Gilmore 2." 2025. Netflix.
 
Just what you would expect from an Adam Sandler movie. Vulgar and stupid but also hilarious in parts.

His golf swing double was pro Hunter Mahan.

This six-time PGA Tour winner served as Adam Sandler'''s double in '''Happy Gilmore 2''' - NBC Sports

HG2 was painful to watch. Fun seeing PGA and LPGA Tour pros but wish I'd done something else...anything else.

Glad to see Hunter got some work and a paycheck. His tour career really went downhill after chunking that chip shot at the Ryder Cup.

Saw it yesterday. Yes so goofy and silly and sometimes offensive but ok in many spots. Not sure what it was rated but making it PG would have opened it to more juveniles. Oh well

I have googled who the large black guy actor was in the miniature golf course scenes. He looked so familiar, but can’t see his name. I’d love to know how they filmed all the pros. In One day??? Before a tournament??? And how much $$$ they each got.

Waste of Film
 
Worst movie I have seen in quite a while. A soap opera has better acting and plot.

Yikes my bad. Had no clue that was HIM. As a huge Breaking Bad fan, did not recognize him at all. Huell. Wow. If the HG2 movie wasn’t so bad I’d go back to look again. Yikes.

Travis Kelce played the angry waiter while some of Adam Sandler's real life family were in this movie as well.

Lots of cameos .


I still cannot recognize the Sixth Sense actor from what he looks like now from what he looked like as a kid.

Haley Joel Osment was the cutest kid when young in Sixth Sense. Great movie. But yikes did he NOT continue that cuteness into adulthood. Yet another actor in HG2 I did not recognize.

Watched last night with our daughter. It was both stupid and entertaining all at the same time. It wasn’t supposed to be anything else besides a stupid slapstick comedy. The cast of characters in the movie alone made it worth watching. I’ve never seen a movie with such a large and diverse amount of famous and interesting supporting cast members. The amount of famous professional golfers, from many generations, was amazing. I particularly enjoyed Scottie Scheffler in the flick.

Worst golf related sequel since Caddyshack 2.

(In fairness, it may be the only golf related sequel since Caddyshack 2, so make of it what you will.)

You likely didn’t notice Kelce’s dad sitting among the pros at the banquet. He had to be thrilled.

Disagree ……

What did you expect? It was straight to streaming, should be your first clue. I got what I wanted when I watched it, it was fun and I am sure that I won't be seeing it at the award shows.... Not sure I'd go so far as to say it was as bad as Caddyshack 2... My only regret is that they didn't have more with Julie Bowen....
