Oof.Adam Richard Sandler (born September 9, 1966) is an American comedian, actor, and filmmaker. Spade’s bit part in Jack and Jill, for instance. I suppose there are worse fates than drawing a paycheck for being a co-lead in The Do-Over.
ADAM SANDLER DRIP MOVIE
Now he’s meekly standing by as an Adam Sandler movie humiliates him with its throwaway fratboy antics, kicking him in the balls, making him grow a bad mustache, sticking sausages in his face because, haw haw, a sausage looks like a penis.
He had a solid sitcom career with Just Shoot Me. He was so willing to lend his smarminess to The Emperor’s New Groove. There was so much heart in his interaction with Chris Farley in Tommy Boy. It’s come to this? I’m as bewildered as Spade. Okay, now it’s time for David Spade to lie underneath Luis Guzman’s sweaty balls until a drop of that sweat drips onto his glasses because haw haw. But mostly ignore it because it decides Sandler is going to have a gunfight, or Paula Patton is going to push up her admirable cleavage, or Matt Walsh is going to attempt a funny accent.
And what does The Do-Over do with it? Belittle it some of the time. It’s the stink of regret, the weight of middle age, the dread that you’ve lived a life not worth living.
But unlike Sandler honestly not giving a fuck, unlike wearing flip flops on your multi-million dollar yacht in the Bahamas and half-assing your way through dialogue that doesn’t matter anyway, it has a very relatable human quality. It’s perfect for his character, who’s supposed to have a bewildered “what happened to my life?” hangdog quality. If there’s any value to be gleaned from this dross, it’s David Spade’s bewildered “what happened to my career?” hangdog quality. Seriously, check out the filming locations for Adam Sander movies. Which is to say a celebrity who has long since stopped giving a fuck, so now he’s just going to do movies in places where he wants to go on vacation. I shouldn’t be surprised that all I get is Sandler being Sandler. I guess I still confuse Sandler with the guy from Punch-Drunk Love and Funny People. The Do-Over is the latest in Adam Sandler’s too many pictures deal with Netflix.
