Happy Gilmore, a kind of terrible hockey player, turns to professional golf after discovering a hidden talent for it in order to save his grandmother’s house from the IRS.

Rotten Tomatoes says: “Those who enjoy Adam Sandler’s schtick will find plenty to love in this gleefully juvenile take on professional golf; those who don’t, however, will find it unfunny and forgettable.”
