David Spade Movie Reviews

  • The Do-Over - Review

    You have to admire Adam Sandler. You can loathe his movies, and scrawl his name in sand-circles decrying him as the Antichrist – but you simply have to admire him. The man has become an institution unto himself, and his string of absolute shockers have somehow tapped into a demographic so alarmingly large and hungry, that it made his Netflix exclusive The Ridiculous Six – the first of multiple he’s making for the streaming giant – pull in the largest viewing numbers they’ve ever seen. And that’s from a company famously shy about sharing those kind of numbers, so it certainly calls attention to this: Sandler is doing many, many things wrong for critics and film fans everywhere, but for a large swathe of audiences, he’s doing at least as many things right.

    You could have spared us a 500 word review and said, "I don't like Adam Sandler movies". It is so easy to pile-on and join the chorus of critics who bash Adam Sandler. It is almost as popular as bashing Donald Trump. It is like asking someone who doesn't like ballet to review a ballet performance. Adam Sandler movies harken back to a time when movies were simply entertainment; I compare them to the Don Knots movies "The Apple Dumpling Gang' or "The Shakiest Gun in the West". Silly and definitely not brain food but very charming and likely to leave you feeling a little warm inside. Adam Sandler's continuing success proves that the average person has not become as cold and cynical as the average reviewer.

    Although Adam Sandler’s The Ridiculous 6 earned horrible reviews, it still broke records for Netflix. Sandler will follow-up that film with The Do-Over, the second of four Netflix exclusive films being developed by Happy Madison Productions.
