<em>’Happy Gilmore 2’</em> is actually pretty good, well it’s one I enjoyed anyway. I watched the original flick growing up and liked that too, if I’m totally truthful I think I’d marginally rank this one higher comparatively; it’s a more solid ride, whereas the original is a little iffy in more moments imo. Adam Sandler is in his element as the titular character, if there was ever one that perfectly suits Sandler it is Happy - and I mean that only as a positive. Away from the leading dude, it’s a massive cast - so many good cameos, the better ones being that amateur trio and the son of Jackass. Of those who feature a bit more, Benny Safdie is fairly amusing. Christopher McDonald is solid too. It’s nice to see many returning faces from the original, even via the snippets of those no longer with us. I also like when sports comedies bring in famous people from the sport itself, those that appear here are fun. All in all, it’s sturdy entertainment. Not all that belly laugh-y, but it is all passable. A satisfactory return for Mr. Gilmore.
