This is a fairly enjoyable movie with some good elements. 'Happy Gilmore' has its strengths, though it's not without flaws. It's a decent way to spend a couple of hours.
Not bad

This movie has its moments and some good performances. 'Happy Gilmore' is watchable and reasonably entertaining, though it's not going to be anyone's favorite film.
