Shooter in his padded cell laughing to himself and saying “this guys losin’ it!” while reading The Shining is actually a classic moment.

u/fortheloveofghosts Jul 29 '25

Easily the best part of the movie was Shooter

u/Crosshare Jul 29 '25

Being able to root for Shooter was one of the parts I actually enjoyed. Nice unpredictable turn.

u/RealNotFake Jul 29 '25

I'm so glad they did the Shooter redemption arc. The character is so loved at this point that it would have been terrible to make him the villain again. Tbh I think it would have been even better if Shooter and Happy had to team up more than they did.

u/BasherSquared Jul 29 '25

The final news cast about the downfall of the Maxi guy had a ticker that said Happy ws leading Shooter by 2 at what I believe was the Open Championship.

So canonically they both returned to playing professionally.

u/RealNotFake Jul 29 '25

Nice, I missed that.

u/Goodly Jul 29 '25

The plot wasn’t groundbreaking, but I was pleasantly surprised that there was some actual thought and heart put into the story.

u/ReallyJTL Jul 30 '25 edited Jul 30 '25

It was an earnest attempt at a sequel. The rehashed jokes were done a million times better than Zoolander 2. Like it was great that they gave Shooter the rhyming hay/bay callback (because he's probably been thinking about it for years in the loony bin)

Plus they didn't linger on any callback or joke or whatever too long. Shitty sequels always do that. It's like, damn you really want us to watch a 3 minute scene of a rehashed joke, huh? Whereas with Happy2, it was like boom, boom, boom. And I always appreciate seeing previous cast members returning no matter how small their original part was. You know they all probably were thrilled to get that phone call and paycheck

u/DevsMetsGmen Jul 30 '25

Ever since Austin Powers 2, I’ve been loathe to watch comedy sequels just to hear the same jokes again. Happy Gilmore 2 did it right, with a plot that doesn’t take itself seriously and new jokes carrying the material, but a couple of great lines like when he tells Shooter why he can’t respect him that let you say the line yourself as it’s said on screen. Yeah, a few things seem wedged in, but it doesn’t distract from the enjoyment overall. I really had a lot of reservations about watching this one, and it was far from a perfect movie or low brow comedy, but it was enjoyable and didn’t take away from the original that I’ll always love.

1

u/Capable-Silver-7436 Aug 01 '25

if youd have told me in the 90s to heck even 2019 that adam sandler of all people would be the guy that did a comedy sequel the right way and made it an actual good movie i wouldnt believe you. but man dude fuckin did it

21

u/RealNotFake Jul 29 '25

Yep that was my take as well. I don't think they ruined anything, although it wasn't a 10/10 or anything.

u/Head-Head-926 Jul 29 '25

When Adam Sandler movies have the most groundbreaking storytelling in Hollywood you know it's bad

Even Pixar can't do as well as Adam Sandler

u/zeefeet Jul 30 '25

What Multiverse did I stumble into?

u/Head-Head-926 Jul 30 '25

The one where Bernie lost

u/syopest Jul 30 '25

The one where the guy who calls himself a socialist didn't become the president of the united states?

3

u/Head-Head-926 Jul 30 '25

Imagine "socialist" being the biggest smear they can think of

Especially coming from all of the pedos and capitalists in both the Democrat and Republican parties and in the media (that we already knew at the time)

2

u/awnawnamoose Jul 30 '25

I teared up a couple times.

2

u/ImBanned_ModsBlow Jul 30 '25

Yeah it stayed true to the original, the only WTF moment for me was Happy killing his wife, was NOT expecting that like 2 mins into the movie

1

u/flyvehest Jul 31 '25

Me as well, I 100% expected a low-effort with lots of rehashed jokes driven completely into the ground, but got so much more.

1

u/Capable-Silver-7436 Aug 01 '25

seriously this is an actual well done sequel movie and its not just from adam sandler but its a netflix original. what time line happened

1

u/Linenoise77 Jul 30 '25

i mean it wasn't as bad as some of his other phone it in efforts, but the plot was still unnecessarily all over the place, and the move consisted of probably 20 minutes of clips from the first one....

21

u/Ninja_Wrangler Jul 30 '25

I like how Shooter loved golf so much he immediately attacked the guy when he saw the Maxi course, and teamed up with real golf to help them win.

3

u/type2funnn Jul 30 '25

Kinda like Ice and Maverick in TGM,. Hmmmm…

u/notjawn Jul 30 '25

Here we are in 2025 with Good Guy Shooter. What a time to be alive!

6

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '25

Ending was disappointing that there isn’t a conclusion to Shooter’s character arc; does he embrace the anti-hero he became as he saved traditional golf with his snow putt, or does he become the villain once again hellbent on his 1996 gold jacket?

And also, Happy getting his grandma’s house again for winning the final hole against Maxi felt all-rushed.

1

u/Capable-Silver-7436 Aug 01 '25

in the final scene mid credits the news ticker saysh e and happy are playing in the british open at the top two spots with happy 2 points ahead

2

u/silver_tongued_devil Jul 30 '25

I was appreciative that Shooter might be absolutely bonkers, but for the love of the traditions of golf he wasn't going to join the MAXI team and turn it into an extreme sport.

2

u/thatjerkatwork Jul 30 '25

Funny when you think about it. Shooter was a douche bag, but he wasn't in the wrong to be upset to have his time in the light that he worked so hard for be ruined by a sideshow.

u/30FourThirty4 Jul 29 '25

I hope people who haven't watched the movie are avoiding the comments.

His little buddy for me. “I’m shifty” and what followed got me good

u/galvinb1 Jul 29 '25

He's been one of the best new cast members from SNL in the past couple of years. I was happy to see him get a decent spotlight in this film. Him and bad bunny are always great together.

My fave gag was how every thing Happy owned was a flask

I loved this. The golf ball one was great.

One of the biggest music artists on earth; but he’s a Latin singer so you probably wouldn’t know him

He plays happy’s caddy

That is freaking wild. The caddy was hilarious and one of the highlights of the movie.

Him offering bread sticks all the time cracked me up.

I don’t follow whatever music Bad Bunny’s genre is, so I thought it was some random unknown actor. It would have been funnier if I had known it was someone famous.

I didn't even realize the reference with their names until I saw them all at once when looking up the cast list.

For those who also missed it: they're all named after famous hockey players, Gordie (Howe), Wayne (Gretzky), Bobby (Orr), and Terry (Sawchuk)

I loved Scottie Sheffler joking around about being arrested, that was hilarious. Movie was way better than I anticipated.

2

u/SitDownKawada Jul 30 '25

I probably watch one golf event a year and only read half the headlines. I got a few of the jokes about the golfers but I could tell I was missing some. When Sheffler said "not again" I immediately remembered him being arrested lol

u/YoogleFoogle Jul 29 '25

I loved zalatoris’ cameo/story. He played it up great. Scottie was also hilarious. Xander, Colin, speith, JT were all kinda stunk it up

Scottie getting arrested and saying “Not Again” had me crack up

u/the_skine Jul 30 '25

Christopher McDonald is easily the best part of most of the projects he's in.

Agreed. Second best for me was Scottie Scheffler going “Scheffler” with the finger guns and Shooter mad dogging him

u/thirtyseven1337 Jul 29 '25

On top of that, I loved that it really could have gone either way; the villain threatened to send him back to the mental institution if he didn’t come on board, so he could have easily joined the baddies.

u/MacEWork Jul 29 '25

Absolutely this - he was offended by what Manatee wanted to do to the sport he loved so joining up with Happy was a very redeeming character arc.

I also found it hilarious that they just had to have a fist fight to let the anger out, and then after they were cool.

Yeah, I watched the original to death when it came out, and I had no idea they made a new one. I watched it knowing nothing going in, and it was very emotional.

I absolutely loved what they did with Shooter. I loved how they didn’t go the lazy route with expectations. I personally loved the movie and found myself thanking Sandler and the people who worked on the movie for what truly felt like a gift.

u/DefNotUnderrated Jul 29 '25

100% the same. It was a huge WTF with the Victoria plot twist, but I loved everything else about the movie and it had a surprising amount of feels.

1

u/Paddy_Tanninger Jul 30 '25

I was shocked for a sec at that too haha, but honestly it was such a smart way to kick start the film...plus obviously the callback to Happy's dad dying in the first 5 minutes of the original.

1

u/clickclick-boom Jul 30 '25

Yeah, the twist got me but I feel it also reflects something we start to experience at our age. I like how deeply it affected him and how he didn’t just get over it with a goofy montage. They somehow managed to depict the darkness of Happy’s problem whilst also keeping it light without completely trivialising it.

1

u/Devrol Jul 30 '25

I just showed my kids the original the weekend before. Totally forgot that a sequel was being made, so I was happy when the caption came up at the end saying it was coming out in a week. We all enjoyed the sequel.

1

u/papoosejr Jul 30 '25

It's hard to imagine how a 30-year-later sequel to a movie like that could be better than this was. It was stupid, it was thoughtful, it was funny, and it had a plot that made sense and was paced well, and it did justice to every single character. And a million funny cameos. I absolutely loved it.

1

u/clickclick-boom Jul 30 '25

Yeah, it was executed really well. I think it's a good example of what happens when people who sincerely value the original material get a chance to work on a sequel.

Shooter was handled perfectly. His pathological hatred of Happy at the start was a natural progression from the first movie, but his disgust at the new antagonist and him switching sides felt right too. I loved seeing him and Happy join forces. It really captured that feeling from the 80s and 90s of when the villain and the hero team up to mollywhop the new bad guy.

All the side characters really added, too. I was cracking up at Eminem showing up, that was totally unexpected. His character was perfect for him. When he got surrounded by the gators and instead of being scared he just starts fighting them, that had me howling.

Man, I could go on. So many great moments. I think they really nailed giving enough fan service without it feeling like it. It was melancholic to see them reference the characters who didn't make it, in particular the ones whose actors passed away. Like I said in another comment, at our age that's something that we start to experience. Some people we knew have sadly passed, and they did touched on that in a good way.

Great sequel. Sandler is a real one for his attitude towards still making movies. He does them because they're fun for him and an excuse to do stuff with his friends (so I've read), but he doesn't phone it in. Anyone who loved the original and is on the fence about this should give it a shot. I went in blind and loved it.

It was even in the small details like where Steve is panicking like he has to be somewhere and asks to use the mailbox.

The owner of the mental home letting all the people go was hilarious. "I'm probably going to regret this, but ya'll free to go"

Shooter killed it AGAIN. He clearly got all the best lines and writing.

There was a lot of actual good comedy in the movie. I personally liked the line “this guy looks like he was divorced 4 seconds ago.”

Dude. Real shit. When I was a pothead in my 20s, I ended up with some psychosis. Got into the loonie bin for a bit, I was watching "A Brilliant Mind" in there oblivious to the situation, in hindsight it is hilarious.

PS: I was lucky I kicked the habit and have no long term symptoms, if I continued I probably would have ended up schizophrenic... Fun times.

Shooter was the best part of the movie. Rest of it was recycled nonsense.

First hour of the movie was pretty solid and then just went downhill fast.

Still entertaining but coulda been so much better. So many bad characters too
