“Happy Gilmore” is a 1996 sports comedy directed by Dennis Dugan and stars Adam Sandler as the titular character, Happy Gilmore. The film revolves around Happy, a failed hockey player with a powerful but uncontrolled slapshot. When he discovers his grandmother’s house is being repossessed, he joins a golf tournament to win enough money to save the house.
Despite having no golfing experience, Happy’s powerful slapshot translates into a powerful golf swing. He catches the attention of a former golf champion turned coach, Chubbs Peterson (played by Carl Weathers), who agrees to mentor him. Happy’s unorthodox style and temperament clash with the traditional golfing world, causing friction with established players like Shooter McGavin (played by Christopher McDonald), his main rival in the tournament.

It’s known for its humor, absurdity, and memorable one-liners, and Adam Sandler’s comedic performance shines throughout the movie.
“Happy Gilmore” was a commercial success, cementing Adam Sandler’s status as a comedy star and remains a cult favorite among fans of sports comedies.
