Happy Gilmore Season 2 X reviews
Going by the netizens' response to the sequel to the 1996 comedy hit, Happy Gilmore 2 appears to be tailor-made for the fans of the original.
Happy Gilmore 2 garnered positive feedback on social media, as one user wrote on X, 'Happy Gilmore 2 is so much better than expectations. Pretty funny but mostly fun. Worth the time.' A second user reveiwed the film as they wrote, 'I was fully expecting Happy Gilmore 2 to be absolutely horrible… surprisingly it was not absolutely horrible.'
A user rated the Netflix film 'solid 12/10.' Another user wrote, '@AdamSandlergood job with Happy Gilmore 2. Most movies that come out with additional makes end up sucking. It was a good mix of comedy and storyline without 'trying' too hard to match the original. Appreciate the laughs.'
However, not all users were a fan as a user wrote, 'Happy Gilmore 2…Pathetic attempts at nostalgia. A thousand recycled jokes. Empty cameos. Extremely unfunny jokes. Don't waste your time with it.' Another user echoed the sentiment and wrote, 'Welp. A few minutes into Happy Gilmore 2 and it's already pissed me off…'
While it is hard to top the original Happy Gilmore, the film delivered a warm and comfortable watch for the weekend, featuring Sandler's intethered performance.
