ohhhh man you're so unlucky damn. I hope this one stays up and does suuuper well. I'll replay it later tonight while I read or smthg to get you that view ( you're the best and all, but I cant watch the same video 3x in 24h and stay sane, so it'll be on in the background!)
the one thing i remember about this movie is that lauren lapkis' character sexually assaulted david spade's character twice and both times it was played off as a joke because i guess a man that's "weak" enough to get raped by a woman is sO hiLaRiOuS. so not only did it have toxic masculinity that hurts women, but also toxic masculinity that hurts men. gross movie overall.
Yeah the plane moment made me so uncomfortable. If the roles were reversed and it was a man drugging and waking a woman up like that, it wouldn't be perceived as a joke
Oh thank god someone said something! I stopped watching it because it was so gross. I was kinda annoyed not many people bring that up. Like, that was a really fucked up scene.
You should really watch Pop Culture Detective's two-video series called Sexual Assault of Men Played for Laughs - episode one is male perpetrators, episode two is female perpetrators. They're really great videos exploring this trope and how it hurts both men and women and downplays sexual assault in general and how it reinforces toxic masculinity and sexism, going both ways, by showing men "being the woman" (and how that's the biggest insult you can say to a man, that he's gay or that he's like a woman) and men who are "weak" and "feminine," etc. being victimized.
Maybe Missy seems to become more "normal" when he starts liking her because he's an unreliable "narrator". Maybe the movie is be set from his point of view and she seemed completely insane to him until he got to know her? Vice versa for Melissa? Nah... Too smart for a Sandler movie.
This whole story concept is so stupid because most normal people would've deleted and blocked the number of the person you had a horrendous date with because you know...you never want to see them again...
@@chloebeall4011 Haha for real! So many plot holes for convenience, like you'd think if he got a second woman with the same name he'd edit it properly, I mean he actually gave Missy's contact a specific description yet he'd never think to check that or respecify when the same name came up again? I love it so lazy haha
From what I remember, Missy texts him saying “it’s Missy” AFTER he met the Missy at the airport he liked; and he then saved the number in his phone, thinking it’s Airport Missy he’d just met and gave his number to-not the “crazy Missy.” That’s how the mix up happened in the first place.
I feel like Adam Sandler doesn't even try. He just sticks to the same formula that made him famous in the 90's and refuses to update it to current day comedy.
He did Click which was almost jarring because it was so off beat from what he’s done. Then I learned it was produced by 4 companies (his being one of them of course) and then it all made sense.
Literally just financing a vacation for the entire Sandler family and they can write off their personal spending on their taxes as work expenses, Adam Sandler laundering that Netflix coin into his family’s pockets, I bet he overpaid all of them for those short appearances. Kind of smart tbh. I don’t think Happy Madison even cared if it was a good movie, just cash grabbing w the lowest possible effort put into it
My mother thought this movie was hilarious and wanted me to watch it with her, but I tapped out after the SECOND time the male lead got drugged and r*ped and it was supposed to be seen as a hysterical punchline to a joke I could not find. Now, obviously the male lead in this movie is by no means a likeable character in any sense, but r*pe jokes are still never funny, especially when male r*pe victims already aren't taken seriously by society.
My parents said this movie was great so we watched it and five minutes in we chuckled at two things and then we were dead silent. After ten minutes my parents were rolling their eyes and saying "wait what is this? I don't remember this part" before it was revealed they fell asleep almost immediately watching this movie and had it in their minds that it was a good movie because there was one joke in the beginning they liked. It was actually kinda funny.
I love Billy Madison. And I am starting to think it’s more about the nostalgia of my childhood than it is a good movie but Netflix supporting this is insane. I’m annoyed that this man is a multi-millionaire and there are so many more deserving people who work their ass off. Like the people who have to work in grocery stores during a global pandemic for minimum wage, putting their lives at risk. These are all the same movie. Every one of his movies are the same movie, revamped.
I came to say this exact thing. I’m sad that I took the time to google how to spell chortle when your comment was the recommended one the whole time :(
YES finally. It's so nice to hear someone say this about Adam Sandler movies. I've never understood why he's so praised in Hollywood when women in his movies are treated like objects. It has always annoyed me. Even the women who are supposed to be 'the one' like Jennifer Aniston in Just Go With It are sexualized and in that movie for example he only starts to realise he's in love with her when she gets a glamorous makeover. It's such an old fashioned, cringey trope and like you said it's just boring now.
@@jillianc7485 Lately everytime his movies are brought up and I reveal that I actually loathe them I get shocked expressions and bewilderment, but yeah I'm starting to notice that a lot of people are starting to realize how his movies are repetitive and made by incels
Let not forget its propaganda for average Joe men to believe they can snag unattainably stunning women if they're faux charming or quirky enough. And it acts as propaganda to tell women to GiVe HiM a ChAnCe to basic, bland brodudes

Rachel K thanks for recommendation, but I already saw those videos and I highly recommend them to people who still see nothing wrong with jokes like this 😊
@@dvas9626 speaking of those videos, one of the movie he references as having a "men assaulted by women is funny" is _another_ Adam Sandler movie called That's My Boy. like Happy Madison stop.
@Sha Money The Best Rapper Ever Wtf is wrong wit yall, not understanding how to use the word "literally". Nobody's starting a criminal investigation, we just don't think r*pe is funny just cuz it's a woman on a man.
I enjoyed the movie only for missy. She carried it. I personally love bad movies, sometimes i just need something silly because im normally living very uptight.
Same girl I feel you 🙌🏽 I understood all of his critiques and I definitely agree but I also didn’t mind a slight silly distraction from our everyday discombobulated lives 🤣👌
I really liked Uncut Gems, too, I thought it was really well done overall and a nice departure for him from the usual slapstick asshole-learns-a-lesson comedies. Then he put this out and it was so awful it kinda made me sad
It was the two guys in every Happy Madison movie no one knows the name of, you know the heavy metal guys in Little Nicky and the football players in Waterboy..
Lauren Lapkus does a lot of improv! I've been listening to her for years! She's such a good comedian, and is well known in comedy circles. She loves to improv a lot of wacky characters, so this role makes sense for her. Chelsea doesn't really go all in with the craziness. If you watch Lapkus in "The Characters" another netflix show, you'll see it.
They do look alike, but their comedy style is very different. Lauren is far more absurdist and Chelsea would not do this role with the same insanity. Lauren did an incredible job.
I genuinely passionately hate When movies give us a clearly less attractive (and by that I mean really unattractive) male actors than female actresses and then try to pretend like it's totally normal. I cannot be the only who knows that's completely unrealistic.
Late to the comments but I agree with you man ! I wouldn't know myself, but I kinda feel like it messes with boys heads growing up - say they're impressionable, watch a lot of stuff like this and assume this is what the world is like : and end up awful people who are terrible to women being biitter that things aren't as they were lead to believe. Idealistic thing to want, but think it would be great instead if the male characters are shown to actually make an effort, go through growth and have passions of their own - ground it closer to reality! Be a decent person for sake of being a decent person without expections, taking care of yourself because thats healthy and doing something that makes you happy outside of having a partner do that for you type thing.
I agree. Not even them looking bad They just make them disgusting and horrible human beings and then give them supermodel GFs. It's honestly insulting to women because we have standards y'all-
I watched this movie a month or so ago and I actually didn’t even consciously pick up on the sexism because all the characters were so artificial and detached from reality that I never felt like watching actual humans. If the last scene before the credits had showed them all with red Terminator eyes I’d probably have been “huh okay, guess that makes a bit more sense now” The only impressive thing about this movie is that Netflix has once again managed to beat the bar of how bad their movies can get. Whenever you think the bottom of the barrel of Netflix movies has been reached, the Netflix homepage seems to say “hold my algorithms”
DestinyKiller Netflix certainly won‘t lose me over a bad movie, but the middling quality of many of their productions is troubling. Especially when you consider the quality that the competition like Apple is delivering.
Damn they REALLY didn’t want me to know about this stupid movie at all, did they? I’m the 3rd person to say 3rd times the charm, so you’re extra charmed
my parents got mad at me cause i left during them watching this movie and apparently i had to stay or i'd miss the funny scene ??? anyway i didnt stay and now i know i missed absolutely nothing.
@Hunter Bradshaw last I checked, loads of people don’t find it funny and some can find it triggering because of trauma. Personally, I too don’t find it funny either, because what’s really funny about a man being put through trauma?
I love Lauren Lapkus so much. Her female improv group Wild Horses is real funny. And her 87 podcasts are hilarious, too. I knew she thought this would be her big break because of the names attached. But.. eek.
That magical, pixie, dream girl cliche... I feel like it is written by men about girls like me. "Crazy", "quirky" and "illogical"... no, you just don't see women as people... our decisions are perfectly logical thanks.
Exactly!! They just gave her a bunch of stupid gags to make her look dumb even though half of her decisions make sense. Guy you know texts you and says he loves you, why not go meet up with him? You go on a spa day with a woman who's being treated like shit by her husband? Why not tell her it's okay to leave him?
Or they're not crazy but delusional and insanely hot dream girls. Like as soon as I saw that gorgeous girl at the airport hit on David spade because they what...were reading the same book? I was like ok thats ridiculous. Then she hooks up with him in the janitors closet and I'm like okay that's insane. Then she doesn't get to go to Hawaii and so she flies to Hawaii to meet up with a guy she fooled around with in an airport janitors closet for three minutes which means she had to BUY HER OWN PLANE TICKET TO GET THERE. That was when I couldn't even...process information anymore.
There are some analysis videos on TH-cam on the manic pixie dream girl trope that go into depth, they’re interesting, but yeah, they’re largely the things you said.
When I saw this movie I thought to myself. Rob Schneider must have some serious dirt on Adam Sandler.... Like, they murdered someone together or something. There is no other explanation I can think of for him allowing Rob to continually playing this horrible horrible HORRIBLE characters in his movies. 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️💩
It's just feels so weird about not only these weird and outdated stereotypes of women, but also using suicide as a plot device in the way they do. Especially if that previously suicidal character ends up in multiple near death scenarios caused by their own "savior". Edit: oml I just got to the part where she was just bungee jumping. I don't know if that's worse or better. I hate it here.
I love how David Spade figures out that one haircut in his 20s and decided that yep, that’s the haircut forever. Definitely works on a man in or pushing his 60s.
This is why it's been like a decade since we've had genuine, young, talented actors finally getting a break. These older actors are so entrenched, that they become the only thing we ever see.
It wouldn’t be so bad if they were actually good actors. But they aren’t so it’s twice as bad. I never understood why the horrible ones always get the longevity.
I love how you call out the sexism and talk about how they could have done things a different way to actually make it good while also cracking me tf up with your jokes. You are so genuinely funny ❤
It is so boring how men literally put in the least amount of effort in their appearances and its accepted, yet woman are always expected to turn up as a bare minimum.
Lauren Lapkus is gem of a human and I'm honestly so happy for her to be in this film. I didn't like the plot story, but I could watch her be insane forever.
This movie felt like they combined "Just go with it" film with "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" except they just tossed a crazy women in it with seemingly no backstory or characteristics except being quirky. I guess it also goes with the manic pixie dream girl trope as she manages to "change" boring Tim who clearly didn't give a fuck about her to begin with. ALSO can we talk about the unconsensual sexual scenes where Missy just casually does stuff to Tim while he is sleeping?! Imagine the roles were switched and a crazy man just stuck his hands down a girls pants on the plane or started having sex with her while she sleeps EVERYBODY would be appalled. It's not funny at all and just makes Missy look like a sex-crazed molester. I'm disappointed because I actually do like a lot of Adam Sanders movies (even ones considered bad admittedly) but this movie was just a big, desperate mess of an attempt to scream at audience "WE'RE STILL FUNNY!!"
@@coal1818 That's unfortunate because they deserve equal panning. Actually, Adam Sandler deserves it more because he's been making shit comedy for decades now
@@annevanity3922 it doesn't always need to be about their gender... Amy Schumer is just more annoying to me, I don't think anyone cares about their gender here. They both do equally bad work. Adam Sandler has never been a comedic genius but he had his good moments in the 90s and Amy has always just been intolerable to me.
Oh man, looks like I'm gonna have to watch this again, for the THIRD time. Starting to think you're behind these "takedowns" because you know how much we love you, and therefore are more than willing to spend ANOTHER 40 minutes hanging out with you. I'm on to you Nick....I'm on to you.
one the main reasons me and my best friend started getting close was because we realized we thought david spade was sexy 🤣🤣🤣 i dont know why and i cant explain it, but hes hot to me 🤷🏻♀️🤣
Honestly I can see that. He looks bad in this movie but in general he looks like a charismatic middle age british dude (even if he's not british) a bit like Simon Pegg or Martin Freeman. It's a type.
I honestly love adam sandler movies but on GOD, they've gotten awful in like the last 10-15 years. They're all the same movie clichès, all have a female lead 20 years younger than their stale male lead, demean/sexualize female characters, and reuse the same lame characters that never change from movie to movie. Everything produced recently have pondered to middle age men who love white dad jokes and humour that's no longer a little edgy and just blatantly rude.
I was having the WORST day yesterday, so much was going on. I was so happy to see a new video uploaded, it really helped me get 40(ish) minutes of stepping away from the chaos and having a good laugh.
I take GREAT comfort knowing there is someone out there that also buys two types of flavor, one now one later! A coworker told me to watch this movie but I’ve been putting it off then saw you uploaded 🍿 I’m here for it
I want a whole movie just about missy. No romance, no creepy boring men, just missy going through life. She seems like she could be a really cool character
Just a small note here, when they did the establishing shot for the office building with the whole “3 months later” thing that was actually shot in Hawaii; I literally went to high school like a 5 minute walk from that statue. The entire time they’re talking about the whole trip to Hawaii thing feels absolutely hilarious to me when they used scenery and shots from Hawaii to establish non-Hawaii locations.
Yasss feminism thank you for pointing this out, I've always felt this way about these movies. Like why are gorgeous women always with men who do not match them at all. Not saying looks are everything, but the male characters also tend to be just not funny or have anything special about them.
David Spade could have done this movie back when he did Tommy Boy You know, Back when he was closer to the actresses ages. I used to think he was cute back then so I could have bought it.
Third time uploading is (hopefully) a charm! Thank you for finding your way back here to watch and support 🥰
Why isnt it letting you keep it up? I watched the first upload last night and now I am confusion 😂

She loves to improv a lot of wacky characters, so this role makes sense for her. Chelsea doesn't really go all in with the craziness. If you watch Lapkus in "The Characters" another netflix show, you'll see it.
They do look alike, but their comedy style is very different. Lauren is far more absurdist and Chelsea would not do this role with the same insanity. Lauren did an incredible job.
Sandler said he wanted a mostly unknown actress and he worked with Lauren before and liked her.
If you're drunk you're actually more likely to survive a fall from a 2 story building because you don't tense before hitting the ground.
Same theory on why drunk drivers usually survive unhurt, because they're drunk and don't tense against the crash
I learned this from American Dad
I genuinely passionately hate When movies give us a clearly less attractive (and by that I mean really unattractive) male actors than female actresses and then try to pretend like it's totally normal. I cannot be the only who knows that's completely unrealistic.
Late to the comments but I agree with you man ! I wouldn't know myself, but I kinda feel like it messes with boys heads growing up - say they're impressionable, watch a lot of stuff like this and assume this is what the world is like : and end up awful people who are terrible to women being biitter that things aren't as they were lead to believe. Idealistic thing to want, but think it would be great instead if the male characters are shown to actually make an effort, go through growth and have passions of their own - ground it closer to reality! Be a decent person for sake of being a decent person without expections, taking care of yourself because thats healthy and doing something that makes you happy outside of having a partner do that for you type thing.
I agree. Not even them looking bad They just make them disgusting and horrible human beings and then give them supermodel GFs. It's honestly insulting to women because we have standards y'all-
@@ellietheunicorn7706 For real! And then they go throw absolutely no growth. Just like... no.
I mean if you look at her behavior, I can see why someone looking like her would have to settle for David Spade.
It’s hypocritical and sexist too
Adult equivalent of those movies parents put on to babysit their kids = perfect description of Happy Madison in recent years
Oh my god that princess diana wig roast sent meeee
I watched this movie a month or so ago and I actually didn’t even consciously pick up on the sexism because all the characters were so artificial and detached from reality that I never felt like watching actual humans. If the last scene before the credits had showed them all with red Terminator eyes I’d probably have been “huh okay, guess that makes a bit more sense now”
The only impressive thing about this movie is that Netflix has once again managed to beat the bar of how bad their movies can get. Whenever you think the bottom of the barrel of Netflix movies has been reached, the Netflix homepage seems to say “hold my algorithms”
Once the r@pe happened I turned it off (and it happened more than once!) - not for me homie
DestinyKiller Netflix certainly won‘t lose me over a bad movie, but the middling quality of many of their productions is troubling. Especially when you consider the quality that the competition like Apple is delivering.
@@Halbmond oh yes. There's more and more streaming choices with their own original shows that they need to compete better.
First of all how did you know about my secret red Terminator eyes
Damn they REALLY didn’t want me to know about this stupid movie at all, did they? I’m the 3rd person to say 3rd times the charm, so you’re extra charmed
my parents got mad at me cause i left during them watching this movie and apparently i had to stay or i'd miss the funny scene ??? anyway i didnt stay and now i know i missed absolutely nothing.
She literally sexually assaults him in his sleep!!! Last I checked, sexual assault isn’t funny 🤷🏻♀️
Last I checked comedy is subjective and I found that scene hilarious.
@Hunter Bradshaw last I checked, loads of people don’t find it funny and some can find it triggering because of trauma. Personally, I too don’t find it funny either, because what’s really funny about a man being put through trauma?
It is for the guys that made the movie...
@@hunterbradshaw1995people laughed at lynching, if it’s morally wrong, ur heehee haha opinion is utterly irrelevant.
"zooey deschanel if she went to public school" i cried laughing
"people who made this movie are trying to play 5th grade level intelligence people who are also adult men"
So... You mean... adult men?
😂😂😂
My exact thoughts 😂
Adult str8 men. Gays can point out when something is cheaply pandering to them 😂
that is literally word by word what I scrolled down here to say lmao
Who hurt u? lmao
I can just hear Adam Sandler screaming at his tv, hands on hips “ITS A MOVIE!!” Lmfao yeah but it’s terrible. So.
That poor aloe plant really sums up my feelings about this movie
hahahah
that plant sums up my current situation in life to be honest
Nick DiRamio pls it’s wilting
@Luna M He got a little plant stand for it and now it's safely in the corner.
I love Lauren Lapkus so much. Her female improv group Wild Horses is real funny. And her 87 podcasts are hilarious, too. I knew she thought this would be her big break because of the names attached. But.. eek.
At least she's getting that Netflix coin!
Lmaooooo at “her 87 podcasts” that is so accurate. She deserves so much better than this tragedy of a movie.
I think they confused weed with hemp, which can't get you high
That magical, pixie, dream girl cliche... I feel like it is written by men about girls like me. "Crazy", "quirky" and "illogical"... no, you just don't see women as people... our decisions are perfectly logical thanks.
Exactly!! They just gave her a bunch of stupid gags to make her look dumb even though half of her decisions make sense. Guy you know texts you and says he loves you, why not go meet up with him? You go on a spa day with a woman who's being treated like shit by her husband? Why not tell her it's okay to leave him?
Or they're not crazy but delusional and insanely hot dream girls. Like as soon as I saw that gorgeous girl at the airport hit on David spade because they what...were reading the same book? I was like ok thats ridiculous. Then she hooks up with him in the janitors closet and I'm like okay that's insane. Then she doesn't get to go to Hawaii and so she flies to Hawaii to meet up with a guy she fooled around with in an airport janitors closet for three minutes which means she had to BUY HER OWN PLANE TICKET TO GET THERE. That was when I couldn't even...process information anymore.
Facts
There are some analysis videos on TH-cam on the manic pixie dream girl trope that go into depth, they’re interesting, but yeah, they’re largely the things you said.
Honestly I’m so glad the algorithm finally decided to show me this channel, you’re funny asf.
I’m so glad too!!! Thank you so much 😘😘
holdawn WHY WERE U ON THE SHARON OSBORNE SHOW
Right?? We need more information!
I need to know!
th-cam.com/video/_qXypUig97A/w-d-xo.html here is his commentary on the situation
When I saw this movie I thought to myself. Rob Schneider must have some serious dirt on Adam Sandler.... Like, they murdered someone together or something. There is no other explanation I can think of for him allowing Rob to continually playing this horrible horrible HORRIBLE characters in his movies.
🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️💩
I think Adam just has bad taste lol there’s only like one of his movies that I kinda liked...but I only liked it because of drew Barrymore lol
It's just feels so weird about not only these weird and outdated stereotypes of women, but also using suicide as a plot device in the way they do. Especially if that previously suicidal character ends up in multiple near death scenarios caused by their own "savior".
Edit: oml I just got to the part where she was just bungee jumping. I don't know if that's worse or better. I hate it here.
I love how David Spade figures out that one haircut in his 20s and decided that yep, that’s the haircut forever. Definitely works on a man in or pushing his 60s.
Nothing better than a man standing up against misogyny ❤️💪🏻 I love u so much more now lol ✨✨✨
I mean these two little girls literally have Adams face
Yeah, that guy's not his son, I gotta find out who he is. Brother?
I watched this movie with my parent and felt so uncomfortable. God that was bad.
This is why it's been like a decade since we've had genuine, young, talented actors finally getting a break.
These older actors are so entrenched, that they become the only thing we ever see.
It wouldn’t be so bad if they were actually good actors. But they aren’t so it’s twice as bad. I never understood why the horrible ones always get the longevity.
‘It’s like screwball comedy for people who’s brains are dying’ i almost spit out my drink
David spade withiut facial hair is another level of cursed
😭
You must be super young because he only wore facial hair late in his career. It's weird to see him with it for me 😅
When has he ever had facial hair?
I love how you call out the sexism and talk about how they could have done things a different way to actually make it good while also cracking me tf up with your jokes. You are so genuinely funny ❤
It is so boring how men literally put in the least amount of effort in their appearances and its accepted, yet woman are always expected to turn up as a bare minimum.
Lauren Lapkus is gem of a human and I'm honestly so happy for her to be in this film. I didn't like the plot story, but I could watch her be insane forever.
Same she’s so fun
After watching your video, I think this type of dry comedy just isn't for you, but I don't think that makes it unfunny though.
This whole movie just has me thinking "ok pack it up Lele Pons". I don't know why she wasn't casted as Missy
This movie felt like they combined "Just go with it" film with "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" except they just tossed a crazy women in it with seemingly no backstory or characteristics except being quirky. I guess it also goes with the manic pixie dream girl trope as she manages to "change" boring Tim who clearly didn't give a fuck about her to begin with. ALSO can we talk about the unconsensual sexual scenes where Missy just casually does stuff to Tim while he is sleeping?! Imagine the roles were switched and a crazy man just stuck his hands down a girls pants on the plane or started having sex with her while she sleeps EVERYBODY would be appalled. It's not funny at all and just makes Missy look like a sex-crazed molester. I'm disappointed because I actually do like a lot of Adam Sanders movies (even ones considered bad admittedly) but this movie was just a big, desperate mess of an attempt to scream at audience "WE'RE STILL FUNNY!!"
adam sandler and amy schumer content has the same energy just flipped
Oh that's so true
and thats interesting because, yes, its 100% true but like amy schumer is so much more hated??
@@coal1818 That's unfortunate because they deserve equal panning. Actually, Adam Sandler deserves it more because he's been making shit comedy for decades now
@@coal1818 because she’s a woman
@@annevanity3922 it doesn't always need to be about their gender... Amy Schumer is just more annoying to me, I don't think anyone cares about their gender here. They both do equally bad work. Adam Sandler has never been a comedic genius but he had his good moments in the 90s and Amy has always just been intolerable to me.
Oh man, looks like I'm gonna have to watch this again, for the THIRD time. Starting to think you're behind these "takedowns" because you know how much we love you, and therefore are more than willing to spend ANOTHER 40 minutes hanging out with you. I'm on to you Nick....I'm on to you.
Hahah I promise I’m not that clever but I am DEEPLY grateful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well now you just gave him the idea
this review is as excellent as the movie is terrible, and I will keep saying so as many times as it takes for the video to stay uploaded
Hahaha thank you Jacob you the real mvp
Agreed
I love how you actually give suggestions on how the story could be better. It’s like a script doctor almost.
“Chubby Dude With an Attitude 😎” should be on a bumper sticker
The number one thing this so-so movie was was a deserved career move for Lauren Lapkus. Thanks for empowering her, Netflix.
finally, i get to consume the forbidden content
hahaha as is your RIGHT
I feel like Adam Sandler’s whole family was in this movie just so he could give them a free family vacation 🤦♀️
one the main reasons me and my best friend started getting close was because we realized we thought david spade was sexy 🤣🤣🤣 i dont know why and i cant explain it, but hes hot to me 🤷🏻♀️🤣
hahah i do not judge you for that, I feel that way about lots of character actors
Honestly I can see that. He looks bad in this movie but in general he looks like a charismatic middle age british dude (even if he's not british) a bit like Simon Pegg or Martin Freeman. It's a type.
I wash crushing hard on him in 8 Simple Rules.
Vile
No, he is, but I'm An Old so maybe my opinion doesn't really count 😅
Lauren has done a lot of improv and she is HILARIOUS! This movie did her dirty
Terrible movie.
I laughed so hard when you said “whoever this guy is” regarding Hurley from Lost. 🤣
“I look down to you! Look at your shorts, they’re huge!” I ALMOST SPAT OUT MY DRINK
my soul goes "wah" is now my favorite quote
:Zooey deschenel if she went to public school"....holy shit I have never been described so....so PERFECTLY!
All the dislikes are from Adam Sandler family members
the best part was when she fell off the cliff tbh
Lol I laughed too but how did she survive does she have a cartilage skeleton
Nick DiRamio my mom was like “but she hit her head the entire way down. is she a damn ghost now” 😭😭
I’m surprised you didn’t mention how she sexually assaulted this guy two separate times?
You act like she is a real person who raped a guy...dudes wrote this movie, be mad at them.
I honestly love adam sandler movies but on GOD, they've gotten awful in like the last 10-15 years. They're all the same movie clichès, all have a female lead 20 years younger than their stale male lead, demean/sexualize female characters, and reuse the same lame characters that never change from movie to movie. Everything produced recently have pondered to middle age men who love white dad jokes and humour that's no longer a little edgy and just blatantly rude.
Facts
“it’s like screwball comedy for people who’s brains are dying” absolutely sent me
I had the hugest crush on David Spade as a child…I still kinda do. We’re all allowed to have our kinks
"Zoey Deschanel if she went to public school" 😂
I was having the WORST day yesterday, so much was going on. I was so happy to see a new video uploaded, it really helped me get 40(ish) minutes of stepping away from the chaos and having a good laugh.
I’m so glad the video helped give you a break from a tough day! I hope today is worlds better 🤗
"That's not a laugh, that's an embarrassed chortle."
I... sir... you...
"Also, Phil Collins? It's like, okay boomer."
* Goes on to reference Bettlejuice and The Brady Bunch. * 🤣
Nailed it with that "princess Diana's wig" comment
Just wanna point out that Jared Sandler is not Adam Sandlers Son, he's Adams Nephew. Other than that, Yes. I Agree with everything :D
I love how you didn’t mention that Vanilla Ice was thrown in there
Hahah I was too excited to be done with the movie lolll
understandable 😂
Was he one of the many old men in this movie who'd need help carrying two briefcases?
This movie is incredibly similar to Man Up starring Simon Pegg and Lake Bell that came out five years prior. Coincidence? Hmm
It’s the fact that they were all in the movie grown ups for me
I take GREAT comfort knowing there is someone out there that also buys two types of flavor, one now one later! A coworker told me to watch this movie but I’ve been putting it off then saw you uploaded 🍿 I’m here for it
"Adam Sandler, you don't get to talk down to me, I talk down to You. LOOK at your shorts, they're Huge"
Side note, have you ever been told you look like Flula Borg? He was the german guy in Pitch Perfect 2
No, but I could see that!!
I want a whole movie just about missy. No romance, no creepy boring men, just missy going through life. She seems like she could be a really cool character
David spade looks like he needs to be hospitalized for exhaustion throughout this entire movie.
I love that you don't just bash the film but you have ideas and critiques for how they could have made it work.
THIRD TIME IS THE CHARM... I hope.
Exactly what I said! 😂
Just so you know, he’s Adam Sandler’s nephew, not son.
I said it two other times, I'll say it again. Hell yeah good job my guy
lol thank you for all three times!!
Just a small note here, when they did the establishing shot for the office building with the whole “3 months later” thing that was actually shot in Hawaii; I literally went to high school like a 5 minute walk from that statue. The entire time they’re talking about the whole trip to Hawaii thing feels absolutely hilarious to me when they used scenery and shots from Hawaii to establish non-Hawaii locations.
Yo idk why you re-uploaded this but thanks cuz it wasn’t loading for me yesterday ❤️
It got copyrighted twice, I think 😂
I can't even explain the noise I made at "Princess Diana wig"😭😭😭😭😭😭
Yasss feminism thank you for pointing this out, I've always felt this way about these movies. Like why are gorgeous women always with men who do not match them at all. Not saying looks are everything, but the male characters also tend to be just not funny or have anything special about them.
David Spade could have done this movie back when he did Tommy Boy
You know, Back when he was closer to the actresses ages.
I used to think he was cute back then so I could have bought it.
The only thing I liked from this movie was ONE outfit missy wore
