Happy Gilmore 2
Jord kept his 7/10 rating short because he couldn’t justify it. It doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. Happy Gilmore 2 is so bad that it nearly taints the legacy of the original and had we not just watched the original it would make me question how well it held up. I can assure you the original holds up, but I seriously have no idea how such a legacy movie can have such a poor sequel. It’s really weird too, because the first half of this movie is just below average bad like 6/10 but the last 45 minutes is worst stuff you’ve ever seen put on screen bad 3/10 stuff, thus the 4.5/10 overall from me. They milked every single cameo and callback they could to very little benefit. Don’t waste your time on this, especially if you’re an OG Happy Gilmore fan.

Yikes - this was a letdown. A lot of the movie felt forced - both in the cameos and callbacks - and the ending just spiraled off the rails into a downright bad movie. Watch the original and skip this one, folks.

I will keep this short because I know Z and E will be mad about this number. If you know what you are getting into it is a fun film. The call backs are nostalgic and I did enjoy getting to see Happy in a movie again. Overall though, in a movie sense, they have no confidence in the audience and did the opposite of catering to the fans, but catered to the actors. Overall, it can be fun but it is not a great film by any means!
