Adam Sandler is the “Saturday Night Live” star that is now a byword for terrible comedy. Nowadays, Adam Sandler seems to embody all that is wrong with cinema but it was not always this way. For some reason, there was a time when the average person did not hate his work.

Adam Sandler of course made it big being on “Saturday Night Live”. Like many fellow cast members, he soon made the transition to making movies. While not everybody’s cup of tea, his first few films were hits. “Billy Madison”, “Happy Gilmore” and “Big Daddy” all made a lot of money at the box-office.

With tons of his movies coming out, it was not long before people got tired of his shtick. Most people were not overly impressed with “Little Nicky”, “Click” or “I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry”. He also failed to branch out into other genres with the drama “Punch-Drunk Love” and the abysmal animated holiday film “Eight Crazy Nights”. Things got even worse though as Sandler kept making more films and seemed to get lazier. We got more generic romantic comedies such as “Just Go With It” and “Blended”. He even ended up making movies that just seemed like excuses for him and his buddies to go on holiday. His crowning achievement in awfulness was “Jack And Jill” where he plays dual roles and one of those roles requires him to dress as a woman. The movie even has the legendary Al Pacino (“Scarface”, “The Godfather”) fall in love with the female Adam Sandler.

Now, you can find Sandler’s new movies on Netflix. He’s no longer tormenting you from the big screen, he is going straight to your home to bring you pain and misery. Even at his best, Adam Sandler was never that great. His production company Happy Madison has also been responsible for comedic atrocities such as “The Master Of Disguise”, which helped end Dana Carvey’s career. While it’s frustrating that he is still able to get wads of cash to make movies, it seems like a form of justice to see a filmmaker so lazy get demoted.
