Guys, thanks so much for lovig this video. Please help me get to 1k Subs. I've been on TH-cam for over 17 years. It would be a dream to finally get the ball rolling. 😍
Never forget that Adam Sandler is an amazing actor and chose to do less serious films in order to support his friends by hiring them to work on his films. He traded a more fulfilling career for the opportunity to elevate the lives of his friends. Pretty good trade if you ask me.
I’ve never heard him say it but I would bet Chris Farley’s death dot that tbh. He lost one of his best friends amidst the prime of both there lives and because of it took pains to make sure none of the rest of his friends would ever want, and where always close if they needed him for anything. Respect to a true friend
He also made those movies some of the best return on investment and consistently profitable movies as a whole in the industry, it’s actually pretty impressive tbh.
The symbolism of him locking himself away to play Shadow of the Colossus, a game in which the main character goes to slay giants in order to bring his loved one back from the dead, that always stuck out to me and made me sad that non gamers wouldnt typically catch that little bit of detail.
I think it also had deeper semblance in terms of a hero fighting such large monsters. A hero so small that he literally had to climb over them in order to defeat them.
@ericstech3181 yeah! I thought I remembered them being innocent! Good catch. Maybe its symbolism is one of innocence - Along the lines of no one is at fault and its just tragic misunderstanding and clearly time has not healed wounds and instead festered which hurt everyone along the way. I don't know, I'm not poetic enough ro understand the full nuance. Hahahaha
he just did spaceman and is solid in it, although I felt the movie itself wasn't up to par with his acting abilities. he is always mesmerising to watch when he is putting the effort in.
It's always heartbreaking watching comedic actors act in a serious drama film. It's like looking at that one friend who's always smiling and they just break and you can't recognise them anymore.

With the friends, with people, that’s how depression and anguish and pain are shown. I’m an emotional person, God has blessed me with the ability to feel, to empathize with others and that has made me more emotional that most boys my age. And like all people I have problems, in my life, it seems like no matter what I do, what I accomplish, how strong my relationship is with God I’m just let at the end of the day unhappy and unfulfilled. I’ve seen things and experienced things that most 16 year olds haven’t, and I felt so horrible about certain stuff I decided to change personality and how I treat people entirely. I try to make people laugh, I’m always there for my friends, I wish some people would check in on me so I make sure to do that for my friends. My point is, as this usually happy and energetic person that tries to be in a good mood and treat people well, it seeps in from time to time and I just break. Emotions suck
@@dutch24that was my philosophy when I was younger. I was writing my note and I sat back and realized why I felt so awful was because I was focusing so much on making the people around me laugh and feel good that I was sacrificing my own happiness
@@dutch24 I think the reason I try to make people laugh is because it makes me feel like I'm happy, even if it's only a few minutes, and I'm not actually happy.
Anytime Adam is in a serious role or scene he will always steal the show. He's definitely one of those comedians that can easily handle serious topics and plots with ease which makes me wish he took more of those roles.
another actor similar to that is Steve Carell he is obviously a comedic actor in a few projects but when it comes to serious roles wow does he nail it like he is also so talented aswell as adam
@@southernpride2003 Big Daddy was good. So was Waterboy and Mr. Deeds. You're selling Mr. Sandler a bit short. Sure, some of his later roles, such as The Cobbler, Click, Grown Ups (1-2), and... shudder... Jack and Jill, were bad to horrendous, but he made more good comedy films than just the two you named.
Every time I see Adam Sandler out of his acting roles, I always had this suspicion that the sadness in this clip was closer to how he actually felt than any of the funny movies he acted in.
This is so true for the majority of comedians, they often had rough lives and use comedy to help bring a joy to others that they themselves can’t enjoy
@@d.i.m.eproductions6925 I feel that way about Robin Williams. You could feel what he felt when he played serious roles and knew it was more than just acting.
When he explained to his in laws how he still sees his family in the street. How he stares at a German shepherd and sees a poodle. And how he explains to them how alone he is and that they at least have each other is tragic
That is exactly why I don't watch any serious movies of his anymore. I don't know what it is, but he brings 3000 times the humanity to dramatic roles than anyone else & I literally can't handle it. I get upset for days after. It's like watching my happiest, loveliest friend's heart break in real time & I am not equipped for it.
Adam Sandler has always and forever will be one of my top favorite actors. Grew up watching Billy Madison, Mr. Deeds, Big Daddy, Happy Gilmore, etc, but I've never seen the more serious roles he's done. It's like watching an old friend cry 🥺
The sad part is most of these actors who cry have to actually think of a memory that hurt them or worse in order to bring out true emotion for some films
@@Mauri.El.CreadorI miss those games. 8-14 hours of actual content, as opposed to 50 hours of bloat. There are exceptions both ways of course, but all least back then you could play a game in its entirety and judge it as a whole, now it's a huge timesink that's usually not worth the effort.
When I saw that movie, I cried. He had so much emotions and pulled you in with his pain and suffering of losing his family. He should got an Oscar. He still had some funny Sandler spots in there to keep you laughing from time to time, but his acting was Oscar worthy.
@@PaganSkyeAdam Sandler was unfortunately found on the floor on September 11, 2001, devastated about the attacks on the World Trade Center, he is still alive and well.
They ruined the lives of thousands and changed the lives of a whole country by destroying two buildings, but their entire country was ruined before that. Back a creature into a corner, taking away it's peace and space that it holds dear, and it will show you why you call them a creature. Does what I state justify their actions? If you think this is the case then you won't understand what I meant. A human in Humanity is a rat in a Rat King.
Yeah Uncut Gems was a hell of a ride and he portrayed that “degenerate gambling-can’t make a right decision to save his life even though he’s aware of what the right decision is - what the hell is this dumbass doing - I can’t help but feel sorry for/yet simultaneously have no sympathy for the dudes continuous fuckery” type character sooooo well in that movie! And if the ending didn’t blow your mind the same way it blew Adam Sandlers mind the first time you seen it, you must have not been paying attention haha. But no for real, that movie is something else and absolutely displays his abilities as a top tier actor, no doubt!
People never notice that Adam is actually a good actor. I've watched some of his films or parts of his films where it's actually serious and he manages to kill it. This is also giving me some Breaking Bad vibes with how that empty house is seen with flashbacks of an old life but now it's all gun, even our main man just broken. And coincidentally Bryan Cranston used to act for comedy, then he got casted for Breaking Bad.
Like Jim Carey, when you look past his comedic roles, he is a such a great actor that can put you in a heartbreaking situation or blown away from their performance.
I was a teenager in DC on 9/11. I made the decision to join the military because of that day. Over the past 20 years I have lost most of my close friends avenging that day, we all joined up to avenge what we saw that day. I totally understand the character after that 5 minute clip. I have spent the past 5 years in a trailer in the middle of nowhere having as little human interaction as I can possibly get away with.
i know how you feel, i reenlisted after 9/11 and went back to the middle east. Still not over the shit i saw in 91 and probably am going to end up with a bullet in my brain in the next 10-20 years before i waste away from alzheimers like my dad and grandfather, i dont know what im doing these days and i dont know if it was all worth it, sometimes i wish i died overseas so i didnt have to deal with life back in the states, apart from some people i talk to online i dont really interact with people either.
Gets me thinking about Robin Williams and his ability to act in serious films as well. His ability to act in a way that allowed him to be silly and serious in the same movie was astounding. The way Adam is able to so it has the same effect.
That had me mesmerized, I felt like I knew his family as he described them. I know nothing of acting as an art except that if I forget it's not real I know it's great. The way you put this together is outstanding imo, you are truly talented @Mauri El Creador Thank you for sharing some of your work.
This leaves me feeling so empty. There's no heartwarming "it gets better" because for someone who experiences that kind of loss, it just doesn't. I don't know how people that experience that level of grief and pain continue to live. God I wish no one had to experience pain like that.
It does send an important message though, to the people around loved ones who have suffered great loss. Don Cheadle's charcter, the landlady, the therapist and so on.. They all come together to help this guy who's mind has basically snapped after losing his entire family.
I have no idea how I've never heard or seen this movie, but I suppose it sticks out because now I am a father of 3 and it ripped my heart in 2 when he said "They adored me"😢
I'm a big kid. I don't know how to live without my cheerleaders. I would be lost without my wife and girls. I would drown in my own depression. I am blessed to have them every day!
Get some help, man. All of that could be taken away with the swift movement of a finger and suddenly you'll be alone, lost and depressed. Make sure that even if you end up by yourself, you'll still have a reason to live that's not JUST other people
I’m not sure if he does more comedic roles because it’s what he enjoys or if it simply makes more money, but time and time again whenever I see Sandler in a more serious role, he always impresses me with just how deep he can cut you when it comes to emotional moments
This is one of the most amazing dramas that nobody talks about or knows about. I sometimes mention it in conversation and people have no idea what I'm talking about.
@@33alltheway14 Adam Sandler keeps playing the game basically everyday since he lost his family in 9/11. That and remodeling the Kitchen are his only forms of distraction from the pain of losing his wife and kid
Adam Sandler has that perfect ability to mumble his lines just enough in a raspy voice to make a role like this much more believable. I think the ending of Click was one of the only serious and emotional moments I've seen of him in a movie now that i think of it
Guys I'm so happy so many people love this movie. Its an odd one out in Sandler' filmography and the supporting cast is wonderful. If you haven't seen it yet, find a way to watch it, highly recommended. 💝
There's also that basketball movie he did, Hustle. He has a surprisingly big range of acting skill. I mean--I always knew it, but it's just a big contrast from the comedies he always does and is known for. It's the same with Jim Carrey. They're almost type-cast in comedic, goofy characters until they aren't, and they go hard.
I have ptsd and I have to say the last few lines hit me the most. You recount the event and you experience it again and then space out with the tone change. "I felt them burning...can we go?" Captures it well to be stuck in trauma and zone out in the rest of life.
I remember being home sick from work one day and I just so happened to catch this movie on cable. I didn't think I would cry watching an Adam Sandler movie in my entire life till I saw this one. Instant classic for me and probably one of, if not the best movies about the tragedy of 9/11.
yeah, I can't remember a single movie ever focusing on the aftermath. A person's life after the events. In this case, someone who lost their entire family.
Adam Sandler was told by an acting teacher that he’d never make it. After he was famous, he ran into his teacher and introduced Brad Pitt to the teacher and did not take the opportunity to rub his fame in his teacher’s face. Great dude.
You just never know what would've been going through that teacher's head or in their life when they said that. And it didn't have to define their entire student-teacher relationship either. We call that grace.
He's a legend. Even the movie Click makes me cry like a little girl without fail every time, and Click is a family comedy! I feel some people don't take him very seriously because of some goofy roles but Adam is a true star with the realest talent!
the thing that's always been so captivating about Adam Sandler in my opinion is that his best performances aren't this big, tryhard crying and screaming moments people think when they hear "good acting", it's moments of honesty like this one. I'm not seeing a character being convincing here, or an amazing performance, I'm not even seeing a movie... I'm literally there, listening to a man vent about his grief... it's such an immersive performance without even trying as hard as other performances... And this is the same guy that did goddamn "grown ups"... HE DID GROWN UPS, and he still pulls stuff like this consistently when he wants to... WTF?!
can't believe how underrated this movie is. I wish more people had seen it. I was a teenager when I first saw this and it's probably the first movie that got me in tears lol, as far as I can remember. It's definitely my favorite Sandler movie ever.
I think his reputation for silliness and joking add so much to the performance. It's like hearing that Robin Williams committed suicide. It breaks your heart to pieces to imagine someone so jovial, someone who brought so much joy to the world, be drawn so low.
@@Mauri.El.Creador Yeah I think really the only way to watch it these days is to buy a physical copy or pirate it, both of which are not even close to optimal. Hopefully some streaming services pick it up soon. I'd rewatch it in a heartbeat if it was on Prime Video
When someone has a pain so deep, they will bury themselves in something…. This character is beautiful because it wasn’t drugs, it was music. Seeing this scene again now as a mom, I could not imagine. God be with you all who have lost a child. 💔
Adam Sandler is in the same league as Keanu Reeves. They're genuine humans outside of Hollywood. Adam took lesser roles/films to get his pals a better start makes him a good guy in my book.
People say he plays the same Pearson in every movie but, no he doesn’t, he is such an amazing actor and the ways he showed his emotions made my cry, what a phenomenal performance.
Now i understand why he always go comedy cause just like heath ledger he got into the character so much and to deep it absord them kinda killing him inside, he a great actor never doubt that
THAT BROKE MY HEART!!! HE IS AMAZING ACTOR!! ADAM IS TALENTED, THE ONE THING HE DOES SOOO WELL, HE MAKES YOU FEEL SOMETHING!! LOVE ADAM!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO 😊 🩷 🤘✌️
always hated sandlers comedies but reign over me and punch drunk love made me sit up and take notice. reign over me seems to be one of his lesser known serious roles. he is phenomenal when he puts the effort in.

He's the funny kid who just broke in a way.
I was a teenager in DC on 9/11. I made the decision to join the military because of that day. Over the past 20 years I have lost most of my close friends avenging that day, we all joined up to avenge what we saw that day.
I totally understand the character after that 5 minute clip. I have spent the past 5 years in a trailer in the middle of nowhere having as little human interaction as I can possibly get away with.
i know how you feel, i reenlisted after 9/11 and went back to the middle east. Still not over the shit i saw in 91 and probably am going to end up with a bullet in my brain in the next 10-20 years before i waste away from alzheimers like my dad and grandfather, i dont know what im doing these days and i dont know if it was all worth it, sometimes i wish i died overseas so i didnt have to deal with life back in the states, apart from some people i talk to online i dont really interact with people either.

What about when you have to go to work
grow up
Gets me thinking about Robin Williams and his ability to act in serious films as well. His ability to act in a way that allowed him to be silly and serious in the same movie was astounding. The way Adam is able to so it has the same effect.
That had me mesmerized, I felt like I knew his family as he described them. I know nothing of acting as an art except that if I forget it's not real I know it's great. The way you put this together is outstanding imo, you are truly talented @Mauri El Creador Thank you for sharing some of your work.
Hey! Thanks for the nice words! This movie is very special to me, I wanted to shine light on it.
I bought this blueray when it released and its still on my shelf a movie id never toss this film was amazing
This leaves me feeling so empty. There's no heartwarming "it gets better" because for someone who experiences that kind of loss, it just doesn't. I don't know how people that experience that level of grief and pain continue to live. God I wish no one had to experience pain like that.
It does send an important message though, to the people around loved ones who have suffered great loss. Don Cheadle's charcter, the landlady, the therapist and so on..
They all come together to help this guy who's mind has basically snapped after losing his entire family.
i often try to introduce this movie to as many of my friends as i can. this plot along with sandlers performance are so moving
I LOVE Adam Sandler. He is definitely an underrated talent
It’s easy to forget just how incredible of an actor he can be when he wants to be.
Phenomenally and EXTREMELY overlooked movie...i can't watch without tearing up... John q up there too
John Q! I'm gonna put that one on the list.
I have no idea how I've never heard or seen this movie, but I suppose it sticks out because now I am a father of 3 and it ripped my heart in 2 when he said "They adored me"😢
I'm a big kid. I don't know how to live without my cheerleaders. I would be lost without my wife and girls. I would drown in my own depression. I am blessed to have them every day!
Get some help, man. All of that could be taken away with the swift movement of a finger and suddenly you'll be alone, lost and depressed. Make sure that even if you end up by yourself, you'll still have a reason to live that's not JUST other people
@@yasininn76I'm pretty sure anyone would be destroyed after losing their family, no matter how prepared they think they are.
When everything you love is taken from you. Damn good work Adam
i just realized he was speaking of 9/11 this movie seems to go deep into detail love the ones you have while you still have them
Oh my God this looks like too painful a movie to watch. Brilliant acting from Sandler. I can feel his characters pain so much its got me teary eyed
Its actually a fun watch. This just happens to be the hardest scene. I also edited it to make it more dramatic.
I’m not sure if he does more comedic roles because it’s what he enjoys or if it simply makes more money, but time and time again whenever I see Sandler in a more serious role, he always impresses me with just how deep he can cut you when it comes to emotional moments
This is one of the most amazing dramas that nobody talks about or knows about. I sometimes mention it in conversation and people have no idea what I'm talking about.
I guess you could say its one of those... Uncut Gems LOL
Such an amazing movie. Made me appreciate Shadows of the Colossus so much more.
wtf why is everyone saying that
@@33alltheway14 Adam Sandler keeps playing the game basically everyday since he lost his family in 9/11. That and remodeling the Kitchen are his only forms of distraction from the pain of losing his wife and kid
“They adored me, Johnson!” 😢 gets me every time
Adam Sandler has that perfect ability to mumble his lines just enough in a raspy voice to make a role like this much more believable. I think the ending of Click was one of the only serious and emotional moments I've seen of him in a movie now that i think of it
Guys I'm so happy so many people love this movie. Its an odd one out in Sandler' filmography and the supporting cast is wonderful. If you haven't seen it yet, find a way to watch it, highly recommended. 💝
What is it called
@@gabrielnicely691 Reign Over Me
There's also that basketball movie he did, Hustle. He has a surprisingly big range of acting skill. I mean--I always knew it, but it's just a big contrast from the comedies he always does and is known for. It's the same with Jim Carrey. They're almost type-cast in comedic, goofy characters until they aren't, and they go hard.
I'll never forget how much i cried the first time i watched Click, both from laughter and sadness, it was an amazing movie
I still listen to the song by the Who frequently. Means a lot knowing others appreciate this film. Very underrated sandler movie.
Which Who song is it
@@Seth_O03 Love, Reign O'er Me by The Who
@@MrWalkway thanks man
I have ptsd and I have to say the last few lines hit me the most. You recount the event and you experience it again and then space out with the tone change. "I felt them burning...can we go?" Captures it well to be stuck in trauma and zone out in the rest of life.
Can I ask what happened to you?
Adam Sandler is a real one, he stood with his friends and family instead of smelling his soul to hollywood.
Adam sandler is actually the patron god of acting but he simply holds his power at bay
Only 5% lmao
I remember being home sick from work one day and I just so happened to catch this movie on cable. I didn't think I would cry watching an Adam Sandler movie in my entire life till I saw this one. Instant classic for me and probably one of, if not the best movies about the tragedy of 9/11.
yeah, I can't remember a single movie ever focusing on the aftermath. A person's life after the events. In this case, someone who lost their entire family.
@@Mauri.El.CreadorFunny you should mention Aftermath as that is another heartbreaking (true story) movie. The airport lounge scene 😭😭
@@dunbardunelm3924 Awesome I'm gonna download that one right now.
@@dunbardunelm3924 Whoaa I haven't seen anything with Kiera Knightley since Pirates. I'll tell you what I thought after.
Adam Sandler was told by an acting teacher that he’d never make it. After he was famous, he ran into his teacher and introduced Brad Pitt to the teacher and did not take the opportunity to rub his fame in his teacher’s face. Great dude.
You just never know what would've been going through that teacher's head or in their life when they said that. And it didn't have to define their entire student-teacher relationship either. We call that grace.
Everybody gangsta when the comedy actor gets a serious role.
There's just something so heartbreaking and dreadful hearing a usually cheery man be so... Sad.
He's a legend. Even the movie Click makes me cry like a little girl without fail every time, and Click is a family comedy! I feel some people don't take him very seriously because of some goofy roles but Adam is a true star with the realest talent!
th-cam.com/video/0BWqrepsYNg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=louTMxoS1k7Hjxcg
Adam Sandler is one of those actors that if given a good roll and a good script will outshine other A List actors
Watching this for the first time absolutely killed me. He delivered the role in such a painstaking way.
This man made me cry in click , he’s been an amazing actor for a long time
th-cam.com/video/0BWqrepsYNg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=louTMxoS1k7Hjxcg
Thats my Click video 😗
@@Mauri.El.Creador aww man that scene and the one when his dad is trying to talk to him but he’s too busy , made me tear up man
the thing that's always been so captivating about Adam Sandler in my opinion is that his best performances aren't this big, tryhard crying and screaming moments people think when they hear "good acting", it's moments of honesty like this one. I'm not seeing a character being convincing here, or an amazing performance, I'm not even seeing a movie... I'm literally there, listening to a man vent about his grief... it's such an immersive performance without even trying as hard as other performances...
And this is the same guy that did goddamn "grown ups"... HE DID GROWN UPS, and he still pulls stuff like this consistently when he wants to... WTF?!
im 27, loved this movie when it came out. still watch it every now and again.
Its unfortunately a very obscure film. I never imagined this video would get so much reception.
Never thought Adam Sandler would ever make me tear up. Amazing actor man. Will always be one of my favorites
Did you never watch Click?
This is a very underrated Adam Sandler movie. Unfortunatelynot a lot of people have seen this one i feel. I felt his pain in this one
can't believe how underrated this movie is. I wish more people had seen it. I was a teenager when I first saw this and it's probably the first movie that got me in tears lol, as far as I can remember. It's definitely my favorite Sandler movie ever.
I think his reputation for silliness and joking add so much to the performance. It's like hearing that Robin Williams committed suicide. It breaks your heart to pieces to imagine someone so jovial, someone who brought so much joy to the world, be drawn so low.
Thank you! Im an honest fan - man is severely underrated, and uncut gems gives that peek back into his range.
This is simply one of the best movies ever made, and I really wish it was more popular
Its also kind of lost to the public. I have no idea where you can stream it.
I mean I guess you could buy it on TH-cam, I cant see a lot of people doing that.
@@Mauri.El.Creador Yeah I think really the only way to watch it these days is to buy a physical copy or pirate it, both of which are not even close to optimal. Hopefully some streaming services pick it up soon. I'd rewatch it in a heartbeat if it was on Prime Video
i could always see the sadness and seriousness in his eyes i dont like his comedy but fell in love with the film uncut gems
Great editing. Some times simple edits like this are just powerful.
Comedians can have a wild ability to just flip a switch to become the most amazing serious actors
his performance in Spaceman has changed me
I almost cried watching Adam like this.. I know he’s only acting, but he’s always the funny guy. Seeing him like this broke my heart.
The acting is when they're happy.
Jesus dude. That... wow.
Alot of the comedic actors have this super surreal side of them where they are super real and deep
Adam Sandler was phenomenal in Uncut Gems.
It's such a heavy, dark film, and he is amazing in it.
When someone has a pain so deep, they will bury themselves in something…. This character is beautiful because it wasn’t drugs, it was music. Seeing this scene again now as a mom, I could not imagine. God be with you all who have lost a child. 💔
As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I knew the movie. I loved that movie so much when I first saw it, but somehow nobody knows it.
Adam Sandler is in the same league as Keanu Reeves. They're genuine humans outside of Hollywood. Adam took lesser roles/films to get his pals a better start makes him a good guy in my book.
60% Adam Sandler 40% the peak editing
People say he plays the same Pearson in every movie but, no he doesn’t, he is such an amazing actor and the ways he showed his emotions made my cry, what a phenomenal performance.
Now i understand why he always go comedy cause just like heath ledger he got into the character so much and to deep it absord them kinda killing him inside, he a great actor never doubt that
If you watch the movie, its still very much Adam Sandler. Kinda like how the movie Funny People is a dark comedy.
Uncut Gems was phenomenal!! I haven't seen this but now I really want to!!
Watching this was so heartbreaking and it just shows how good Adam Sandler acting really is.
THAT BROKE MY HEART!!! HE IS AMAZING ACTOR!! ADAM IS TALENTED, THE ONE THING HE DOES SOOO WELL, HE MAKES YOU FEEL SOMETHING!! LOVE ADAM!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO 😊 🩷 🤘✌️
This is why I love Adam Sandler. No matter how bad his movies can be, I love this man.
The scene when we get to see how he sees his daugthers and his wife all the time in his empty house, that was brutal.
One of my favorite movies ever. Cry every time I watch it.
always hated sandlers comedies but reign over me and punch drunk love made me sit up and take notice. reign over me seems to be one of his lesser known serious roles. he is phenomenal when he puts the effort in.
