For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    Adam Sandler. I personally feel that his humour is aimed at school children - making silly faces and silly voices and basically making fun of the disabled or neuroatypical - but it’s marketed to adults.

    But I like 50 First Dates. He’s mostly not a shouting toddler in that.

      I thought Sandler in Uncut Gems was pretty good. It’s a serious role, that made me rethink all of the campy comedies he’s done.

    • “50 first dates” is such an anomoly. That’s the first Adam Sandler film I ever saw and it was years before I realized why i was getting side-eyed saying I liked his movies. Click was ok too, clearly more for his usual audience though.
