With the rocky track record of Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison film production machine, which brought the world such films as: The Ridiculous 6, Joe Dirt, The Animal, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, Grown Ups, Paul Blart: Mall Cop, Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo, I Now Pronounce You: Chuck & Larry, Grown Ups 2, Click, Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star, Eight Crazy Nights, The Master of Disguise, Grandma’s Boy, and Little Nicky, Sandler’s name has long been an easy punchline for any critic or pop culture blogger looking to make a cheap joke.
Sandler acknowledged his tendency to produce crowd-pleasing, critically-derided films by naming his Netflix comedy special “100% Fresh” after the perfect Rotten Tomatoes rating his films have never achieved. But now Twitter users are reporting being pleasantly surprised by Hustle, Sandler’s new Netflix original movie. Some of Sandler’s other Netflix films have quietly worked to move away from the sophomoric comedy that the comic impresario is best known for, efforts like Sandy Wexler and The Week Of were immediately judged by Sandler’s past efforts and never given the fair critical assessment they were due.
