Happy Gilmore (1996)
7/10
One of the best
3 June 2020
Easily one of the best comedies of the 90s. Subtle jokes (plus the "dumb" ones), great characters (all actors shine brightly), dialogues and moments!! This is a great example of how too much and just enough meet in the middle for a great movie. Happy's caddie, for instance, is a "dumb" character that is played smartly and without insulting anyone. He doesn't really talk, but accomplishes to have an arc!! And you can almost tell he has your back. That's soooo rare in cinema.

My favorite is definitely Julie!! She delivers a smart woman, but also an easily lovable one. Her expressions and smile. What a great character.

And the fact that this is a sports / rivalry plot heightens the excitement of every development! Making it easy to follow and with a concrete and solid objective.
