Whenever I catch a chunk of an Adam Sandler comedy on cable, it looks as badly shot and goofily tossed off as a Jerry Lewis gag reel once he hit the late downslide with 'Hardly Working' and 'Cracking Up.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is always something funny going on between scenes with Adam Sandler. He's always cracking jokes and yelling at people for no reason. It's pretty funny. He'll joke around during scenes, too. When he guest-starred on 'Jessie,' there was nothing in the script that he said first take.
Adam Sandler is truly brilliant. He plays these goofy characters, but he is a brilliant fellow.
In 'Billy Madison,' I worked with Adam before anyone really knew he was Adam Sandler.
My biggest pet peeve, I guess, is other comedians criticizing Larry the Cable Guy.
That's what I hate about a lot of comedies, when you're hitting a line or making it funny.
There's something about Alan Arkin. Even when he's doing nothing, he makes me laugh. I've always had that reaction to him: he's got a weary world-view that makes him perfectly cast.
Comedy becomes intensified in short scenes.
A lot of comedies fall apart because they just go from joke to joke, and the characters are all sort of being crazy off on their own.
I'll continue to make the typical Adam Sandler comedies.
Adam Sandler is a remarkable movie brand.
