Digest more
A Netflix sequel to Adam Sandler’s hit 1996 film briefly recaptures the warm silliness of the original, before devolving into a lazy fever dream of cameos.
Happy Gilmore 2 finds Adam Sandler and pretty much everyone else reprising their roles from the original in a kinder, older film.
Alert your big brother or the Adam Sandler sympathiser in your family because after an almost 30-year wait, Happy Gilmore 2 is here. The sequel to Sandler's iconic 1996 classic picks up decades after the events of the original comedy about a hockey player who discovers he's damn good at golf.
Happy Gilmore 2 is filled with celebrity cameos, but one is so subtle that many fans may have missed it. Turns out, it was the most poignant nod of all. In a scene early in the Netflix sequel, Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore character is seen at a check-in booth at a golf course.
