Adam Sandler: Love You

I would like to start this review by stating a disclaimer that I have been a fan of Adam Sandler through all of his movies. The great ones and the bad ones. There, I said it. But I believe that's what's fans are supposed to do. Stick through the highs and the lows and occasionally, they ll hit the bullseye every once in a while. And that is exactly what the Sandman has done with this special.

This special plays out like an unbelievable skit. Or a sketch. I don't know because I just like comedy. I don't know the terms or depths of it. But Adam does. He has been extremely serious about comedy for a big part of his career and it shows. And in this seriousness lies the comedic funniness that makes us all laugh. And it makes us enjoy life a little better. Everything that happens in this special happens for a reason. Side note - Adam is good at playing basketball and playing the guitar and you are going to see one of these talents at display in this special.

In the paraphrased immortal words of Arnold's character from the Predator - stick around for the end of this shindig.

The bad: it lasts too long, it just does, 30 minutes or even 45 minutes would have been perfect, but I got bored after a while, because after the 10th s)*t and s*x joke they started to sound the same.

There is no dramatic arch in this performance. Heck no, it's just random s*x and s(*t jokes. NONstop. NO story. NO message. That's okay but you better make sure those s*x jokes are really good then, but unfortunately they were more of the kind of jokes teenagers would make. Can be fun for once or twice, but not for 75 minutes on end.

This material must have been an actual debut performance because Adam Sandler was constantly laughing about his own jokes, up to a point that it became embarrassing becausing he was laughing harder about his own (s*x) jokes than the audience.

Not any good? What was really to like though was hearing Adam Sandler play the acoustic guiter, the bass guitar and the electric guitar. This guy can really play! I am not kiddin'. He can not sing though, he sounds awful, but that's only contributing to the comical effect of his short songs which are basically long (s*x) jokes.

For sure this is definitely not the greatest stand up performance, but not terrible either. Should have been cut shorter though, because I got BORED.

Adam Sandler, so talented. Adam stuck to what he knows which is perfectly crafted comedy. He knows his audience And knows that he can be himself amongst his fans. Makes comedy look so easy. Loved it loved it loved it. Adam clearly loves his craft, and I just thought to myself, " How awesome is it to see someone reach their dreams so young and continue creating new dreams and goals that he desires to." So many people keep their dreams to themselves and don't ever see them realized. This Netflix special really reflects the respect he has for all of those comedians before him that Really granted permission for Adam to do whatever he wanted to do because they did it too. Perfect! So proud of you, Adam!

I couldn't be a bigger fan of Adam Sandler historically but Jesus Christ this is just a chore. It's not good I'm just going to lay it out there I'm being kind by giving it a six because like I said I love Adam Sandler but this is barely watchable I'm in the throes of the last few minutes of it and writing this review. I don't know what this is or who is for but it is painful to watch. He was a comedic talent but his career instead of humor has pivoted away from what is funny these days it's just not working on any level from my viewpoint. He's better off going down the dramatic track because that seems more successful these days but I will save you the time and embarrassment of trying to watch this because it's like his attempt to be a pure musician / comedian, don't know I really can't describe what the hell this is.

Here is the corrected version of your text:

I'm not saying that this isn't for young people, but there are just too many moments and jokes in this show that you need to experience yourself before fully understanding and appreciating them.

This isn't your typical stand-up, and I didn't realize how much I needed this.

I think Sandler is trying to convey with this show that you're not supposed to take life too seriously. Life can be sad, sudden, joyful, and it will go on. I recognized all these emotions while watching the show. I haven't laughed this much in a while. I also felt other emotions, and it's comforting to know that Sandler and other celebrities experience what I/we feel.

In life, things will happen that you didn't expect, and you just have to hold on and go with the flow.

I believe if you've lived long enough, you will appreciate this stand-up very much.
