Adam Sandler: Career
built 236 days ago
Adam Sandler's done dramatic roles before ("Punch-Drunk Love") ... "Spanglish" feels like it marks a new era in his career. A more mature character in a heavy relationship drama (don't worry, there's a sprinkling of comedy), Sandler stars as a man who is depended upon to hold together his dysfunctional family.

Like Dangerfield, Sandler — who was a pallbearer at Dangerfield’s memorial service — deserves a chance to at least attempt a shift toward a career as an actor. If he fails to engage while trying on weightier roles, so be it. His audience will gladly follow him back to where he’s very comfortable, thank you very much. “The Waterboy 2,” anyone?
