Summary: Adam Sandler is hilarious
Review: Adam sandler is the comic sensation from pissing on himself in bulletproof to beating down Bob Barker from the "Price is Right", Sandler does it all. Who da man.....and the price is right. You know what I'm saying.

Summary: I just don't get it
Review: Adam Sandler seems like a very nice guy and it's great to see guys like him become successful. I just don't understand why people like his work so much, though. I don't think he's ever made me laugh even once. I'm not saying that I'm right and that other people are wrong but Sandler is the clearest example I've ever seen of how totally subjective humor can be. Afterall, millions of people gobble up whatever he does. I just won't be one of 'em. I doubt they'll miss me, either.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ADAM RULES ! ! !
Review: Billy Madison : Already a cult-comedy classic ! ! ! Bulletproof : Sandler and Wayans are great together . But what can I say...Adam steals the show ! Happy Gilmore : The funniest movie ever...watched it 50 times already ! ! !

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Buy only Billy Madison & Happy Gilmore separately
Review: Billy Madison: Great movie. As always, the concept is poor but Adam, with his jokes, faces, and special approach to the part, makes it so great (and the guest appearance by Steve Buchemi helps too). Released by Universal Pictures, who don't have a clue as to why DVD was invented: there are NO extra features at all! But we came for Adam, and he gave me what I wanted: laughs!

Happy Gilmore: Again, a great movie! Lots of laughs! A movie you can watch over and over again... Parts of the movie are parody about other films. GREAT! Poorly presented on DVD (Universal Pictures)... But Adam!...

Bulletproof: Don't waste your money on this one. Buy the other two separately. Damon Wayans knows what comedy is all about, but not here. Adam didn't provide the laughs this time... Watch once and never look back! Poorly presented on DVD (Universal Pictures)...

You can find other reviews by me to other releases by Adam Sandler.

Summary: OK Collection But Wouldn't Recommed...Sandler vs. Murphy?
Review: Despite the ideas and opinions of others,ideas of an individual whom seems to have a bit of a crush on Eddie Murphy..ok.. want to make a CONFESSION?...Homo-Erotic OBSESSION? DEPRESSION? REPRESSION? Or just CONSTIPATION? I must admit, I believe Adam Sandler has never been as talented as Eddie Murphy at picking up gay transexual prostitutes and "giving them RIDES home." First off,to be honest I DON'T LIKE THIS Adam Sandler COLLECTION. Billy Madison is a great comedy, while Happy Gilmore is a CLASSIC performance by a CLASSIC comedian. Bulletproof...how could Adam Sandler and Damon Wayans make such a bad movie?...almost as bad as Damon's brothers' Scary Movie 2...not that bad though. Happy Gilmore should have been offered in Widescreen and that is the main reason I didn't buy this collection. To go back to the Eddie Murphy/ Adam Sandler comparison again though. First off, both have released multiple albums, Adam Sandler's first two being far superior in comedic quality and talent as opposed to any album ever recorded by Eddie Murphy. Yet, neither of these two should torture us with their singing "abilities." I'd rather hear Shaq rap...and that's real torture. I admit...I'm not a big fan of Adam Sandler's stand up comedy either. But then again, Eddie Murphy attempted to be a stand up as well, attempting to be another Lenny Bruce or Richard Pryor, yet SEEMED to INSULT HOMOSEXUALS quite often...the same people who were his "Friends" that he gave "RIDES" home to. Hell, in the stand up area Bob Saget would even make decent competition for both Sandler and Murphy. That's how bad they both are at it..although Eddie is "RAW"(note, don't waste your money on that garbage.) As for the absurdity that Murphy's movies have reached as compared to Sandler's movies....I have yet to see Adam Sandler want a clip in his movie where a Gerbil gives anal sex to a male human being..as what happened in Nutty Professor 2. Is that supposed to be funny? Yeah, nuthin like a rape scene to bust me out into laughter(note the sarcasm). What the hell was THAT? Did Eddie give the Gerbil a ride home after shooting this film also?.... In addition, Sandler has never made a sequel, as Eddie has...now one could say that sequels are the signs of success..Does this mean that Children of the Corn 4 was so huge that a part 5 was made? He can't come up with any original ideas. Beverly Hills Cop definitely was befitting of a sequel..but Beverly Hills Cop 3? Did anyone actually watch this stinkfest and enjoy it? Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps. Whoopeeee..let's hear retarded farting noises the ENTIRE movie by the supposedly creative multiple roles Murphy played.. and watch a man raped by a gerbil....and and elderly woman act like a 2 dollar whore...exciting!(sarcasm appears again). Thank God there was no sequel to such pieces of crap he made such as Vampire in Brooklyn, Distinguished Gentleman,Holy Man, Metro, LIFE...The saddest thing of all is that Shrek is actually the best movie Murphy has made in a while and that is the one where he played the role of an ass. Eddie Murphy has released more material than Adam Sandler, but a greater quantity doesn't mean better quality. Every Eddie Murphy movie is like playing Russian roulette with half the chambers loaded. The only difference is that part of your life is just wasted by viewing film not using a true bullet. I think I'll stick to quality and Adam Sandler, Bill Murray, Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, Chris Farley,John Belushi,Dave Chappelle,Lenny Bruce,Michael Keaton and that guy from whom he stole his last name from..what was his name again? As for Eddie Murphy, I know I just trashed him, but I have enjoyed some of his material. Before someone calls Murphy a genius and insults Sandler's comedic work, they might just want to think about which comedian has had more original ideas that have made people laugh their asses off. Remember it's all about quality, not quantity, so Sandler doesn't have to make a Happy Gilmore 2 or 3 to try and keep his name alive. He creates quality using a twisted sense of comedy. Yet, the greatest all around comedian/actor(Movies/Stand-up/Any environment he is in)since Richard Pryor is Jim Carrey.

Summary: Since when is this guy famous enough to rate a 'collection?'
Review: Excuse me, who or what is Adam Sandler supposed to be? An actor? A comedian? An actor-comedian? No, no, no...Eddie Murphy is an actor, a comedian; an actor-comedian. To watch Eddie's stand up, his stint on Saturday Night Live...then his movies...even the BAD ONES...then compare and contrast with what passes for Adam Sandler's standup, stint on SNL and his movies...what gives? I'm sorry even if you didn't compare...Adam Sandler is devoid of comedic skills, and couldn't act his way out of a paper bag with the president of the paper bag manufacturing council talking him through the hard parts. This 'collection' is only, sadly, indicative of the decline of western society's standards...Chaplin, WC Fields, Buster Keaton, Milton Berle, Jack Benny, Benny Hill, Chevy Chase...it's been a downward spiral ever since...leading to Adam Sandler as the lead ... going down the... Admittedly, America's tastes have changed and no doubt the youth contingent are leading the way in demanding Adam's special brand of what I loosely term 'humor'...but this only shows they'll watch anything...
