I love the Happy Gilmore analysis! I totally forgot that it was premiering last weekend when my Mom who was visiting suggested that we check it out. Seemed like an innocent trip down memory lane for a woman who had plenty of recollection of my well-worn VHS copy as a kid. No spoilers here but Mom was mortified by the first five minutes. We hung on past the Kelce cameo but both agreed that it was not worth completing. It's a real shame that Sandler couldn't figure out a better premise for the sequel. I've really enjoyed some of his most recent straight-to-Netflix offerings. If this Mother-Son pair who was so invested in the original couldn't make it til the end, it was probably also doomed for plenty of other viewers too.
