Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Happy Gilmore (1996)

Plays like a sitcom in desperate need of a laugh track. Lots of mugging and dozens of obvious gags, none of which are very funny.

I did smile a few times despite myself and I wasn't mad while I was watching (yes, after typing that, I realize that "failure to be made angry" is probably NOT what the filmmakers were going for). Basically, I've seen worse -- but I am not a fan.
