Adam Sandler Acting in a Serious Role is Heartbreaking 

What movie is this?

@@tomohawkcloud Reign Over Me (2007)

It is very respectable. And he cast his entire family for Leo, that movie is beating out Wish.

I’ve never heard him say it but I would bet Chris Farley’s death dot that tbh. He lost one of his best friends amidst the prime of both there lives and because of it took pains to make sure none of the rest of his friends would ever want, and where always close if they needed him for anything. Respect to a true friend

He also made those movies some of the best return on investment and consistently profitable movies as a whole in the industry, it’s actually pretty impressive tbh.

I never knew that, I never liked him because of all the bad films he's been in but I have a newfound respect for him for helping the boys

But if he had a more fulfilling career.. then he could pay his friends

I think it also had deeper semblance in terms of a hero fighting such large monsters. A hero so small that he literally had to climb over them in order to defeat them.

The whole game is perfect the symbolism of crashing rubble...the main mechanic being holding on and letting go

Cracking game too!

@@thesaintsrowspartan Also the "monsters" are innocent -- he isn't defeating bad guys, he's killing innocent collossi to save the one he loves.

@ericstech3181 yeah! I thought I remembered them being innocent! Good catch. Maybe its symbolism is one of innocence - Along the lines of no one is at fault and its just tragic misunderstanding and clearly time has not healed wounds and instead festered which hurt everyone along the way. I don't know, I'm not poetic enough ro understand the full nuance. Hahahaha

Robin Williams, too.

jim carrey*, respect his name.

@@Daemon1995_ calm down

@@Daemon1995_ Jim Carey has always made me cringe. He is an addict who ruined multiple lives.

nobody asked you dawg@@hilaryc3203

why does this comment just make me sad

​@dylanbraddock6323 because 3/50 of his movies are like this and the rest are cash grabs so he can keep his friends afloat lol

@@rdowg What exactly constitutes a cash grab?

@@dustinwalters2728 Jack and Jill was a 79 million dollar movie.

Youre insanely over enthusiastic about adam sandlers acting of all people

Check out "Uncut Gems". Awesome movie

@@Capluffy10902 hour panic attack, that's what that movie is

@@poppi3362best comment lol

he just did spaceman and is solid in it, although I felt the movie itself wasn't up to par with his acting abilities. he is always mesmerising to watch when he is putting the effort in.

When I saw Spanglish. Sandler was more of an actor to me after that movie.

🩵🩵🩵

I lost mine in '22. She was 24. Always here, but unreachable

@@smoli I'm so sorry. I know exactly how you feel.

@@jackcrow3477I’m so sorry. Rest in peace to her.

@@Ravioli-uw9uy Thank you. She was my world.

Because its the comedians/funny people who are the saddest ones.

@@09croix21 “I think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy because they know what it’s like to feel absolutely worthless and they don’t want anyone else to feel like that.” - Robin Williams

With the friends, with people, that’s how depression and anguish and pain are shown. I’m an emotional person, God has blessed me with the ability to feel, to empathize with others and that has made me more emotional that most boys my age. And like all people I have problems, in my life, it seems like no matter what I do, what I accomplish, how strong my relationship is with God I’m just let at the end of the day unhappy and unfulfilled. I’ve seen things and experienced things that most 16 year olds haven’t, and I felt so horrible about certain stuff I decided to change personality and how I treat people entirely. I try to make people laugh, I’m always there for my friends, I wish some people would check in on me so I make sure to do that for my friends. My point is, as this usually happy and energetic person that tries to be in a good mood and treat people well, it seeps in from time to time and I just break. Emotions suck

@@dutchdragon2472that was my philosophy when I was younger. I was writing my note and I sat back and realized why I felt so awful was because I was focusing so much on making the people around me laugh and feel good that I was sacrificing my own happiness

​@@dutchdragon2472 I think the reason I try to make people laugh is because it makes me feel like I'm happy, even if it's only a few minutes, and I'm not actually happy.

I would love to make an Spaceman one. That movie is all about loneliness and interpersonal relationships. 😌

don't forget Punch Drunk Love! Arguably his best film, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson himself

@@MAYUTHEUNDEAD Dude Ive gotten the best recommendations on this video lol

you forgot punch drunk love

uncut gems is arguably better@@MAYUTHEUNDEAD

Yeah it's kind of a shame. I think his comedy roles suck, to be honest. He really shines in serious, emotional scenes. Real talent

another actor similar to that is Steve Carell he is obviously a comedic actor in a few projects but when it comes to serious roles wow does he nail it like he is also so talented aswell as adam

​@@lumixenz In my opinion his only good comedy rolls or Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore those are the only ones I like

I wish he would have taken to play as Bear Jew in Inglorious Basters.

@@southernpride2003 Big Daddy was good. So was Waterboy and Mr. Deeds. You're selling Mr. Sandler a bit short. Sure, some of his later roles, such as The Cobbler, Click, Grown Ups (1-2), and... shudder... Jack and Jill, were bad to horrendous, but he made more good comedy films than just the two you named.

Reminds me of the scene from that one episode of Black Mirror, i think it was called The Entire History of You.

I remember that episode. It was sad ​@@sazking6106

Lmao

Enjoy, check out Ico if you can as well.

its such a short game too

@@theironnautilus7228 mmm, relatively speaking. In comparison with open world games now. But back in 2006 it was a long ass game.

​@@ImpostorzimI miss those games. 8-14 hours of actual content, as opposed to 50 hours of bloat. There are exceptions both ways of course, but all least back then you could play a game in its entirety and judge it as a whole, now it's a huge timesink that's usually not worth the effort.

That is exactly why I don't watch any serious movies of his anymore. I don't know what it is, but he brings 3000 times the humanity to dramatic roles than anyone else & I literally can't handle it. I get upset for days after. It's like watching my happiest, loveliest friend's heart break in real time & I am not equipped for it.

I wanted to add that part, but the video was gonna last 10 minutes

For me, his best performances have been these. But I personally think he loves being goofy.

It's truly difficult to recognize, considering most of his comedies are terribly acted.

not really man, anyone who's seen Billy Madison know that man has talent. ;) jk hahahaha

@@boskilingenfelter9515 I try to forget those exist. 😂 My little brother used to watch Jack & Jill over and over.

@@notparticularlywellmixedpu1916based off of his serious performances he does the bad comedies on purpose it’s probably just what he likes

Yeah if you're over 30, you basically grew up with Sandler. Little Nicky and Big Daddy were my big ones.

@@ImpostorzimI’m 20 and I grew up on his movies

@@vuhllcan2468 ayooo i'm 22

Dont forget the classic Jack and Jill

@@shpidermonky6443 ohhhhh yes never have never will

What's cool is I cut the scene, but if you go and watch the movie, he basically breaks down during the scene in real time. Its amazing.

This is so true for the majority of comedians, they often had rough lives and use comedy to help bring a joy to others that they themselves can’t enjoy

@@d.i.m.eproductions6925 I feel that way about Robin Williams. You could feel what he felt when he played serious roles and knew it was more than just acting.

It’s hard to pretend on topics you have no experience with. Sandler has always had this inner darkness. The kind that all the great ones have.

What is this movie. Did they die in the 911 attacks

​@@PaganSkyeAdam Sandler was unfortunately found on the floor on September 11, 2001, devastated about the attacks on the World Trade Center, he is still alive and well.

@@pyroteknikk3127 Yea I know I was just asking if his family died in. 911. I was a bit confused I’ll rewatch it I never saw the movie

But thank you

Don't forget hes a musician in real life 😁

I’m so glad I seen your comment! I’ve been saying that since I seen him in this role. It’s the hair for sure.

Timothy Chalamet is playing him alreadg

Seriously! Thought the same thing! ❤ Love this man so much!

Probably the only actor who hasn't played Bob Dylan yet.

Thanks bro! I loved the final product

Must have been a crazy time to be an adult. I was only 6 at the time.

Those men felt so powerful as they took these people's lives and families. The devil speaks thru them

@@trailerwager8850 grandiose cowards

@@bankiey yes. Even today, that handful of men, are cowards and if we had put their ideas to bed we SHOULD be a better people!

They ruined the lives of thousands and changed the lives of a whole country by destroying two buildings, but their entire country was ruined before that. Back a creature into a corner, taking away it's peace and space that it holds dear, and it will show you why you call them a creature. Does what I state justify their actions? If you think this is the case then you won't understand what I meant. A human in Humanity is a rat in a Rat King.

What film is it?

i know how you feel, i reenlisted after 9/11 and went back to the middle east. Still not over the shit i saw in 91 and probably am going to end up with a bullet in my brain in the next 10-20 years before i waste away from alzheimers like my dad and grandfather, i dont know what im doing these days and i dont know if it was all worth it, sometimes i wish i died overseas so i didnt have to deal with life back in the states, apart from some people i talk to online i dont really interact with people either.

What about when you have to go to work

"The same things that make us laugh, make us cry." -Big Smoke, 1992

This is so true, my brain instantly went Robin Williams.

Hey! Thanks for the nice words! This movie is very special to me, I wanted to shine light on it.

uncut gems?

​@@aurielbluespaceman is infinitely better than Uncut gems

@@aurielblue Great performance, I prefer Reign Over Me

Yeah Uncut Gems was a hell of a ride and he portrayed that “degenerate gambling-can’t make a right decision to save his life even though he’s aware of what the right decision is - what the hell is this dumbass doing - I can’t help but feel sorry for/yet simultaneously have no sympathy for the dudes continuous fuckery” type character sooooo well in that movie! And if the ending didn’t blow your mind the same way it blew Adam Sandlers mind the first time you seen it, you must have not been paying attention haha. But no for real, that movie is something else and absolutely displays his abilities as a top tier actor, no doubt!

No way they called that mf Cheetos

Get some help, man. All of that could be taken away with the swift movement of a finger and suddenly you'll be alone, lost and depressed. Make sure that even if you end up by yourself, you'll still have a reason to live that's not JUST other people

​​@@yasininn76I'm pretty sure anyone would be destroyed after losing their family, no matter how prepared they think they are.

wtf why is everyone saying that

@@33alltheway14 Adam Sandler keeps playing the game basically everyday since he lost his family in 9/11. That and remodeling the Kitchen are his only forms of distraction from the pain of losing his wife and kid

I guess you could say its one of those... Uncut Gems LOL

John Q! I'm gonna put that one on the list.

What is it called

@@gabrielnicely691 Reign Over Me

There's also that basketball movie he did, Hustle. He has a surprisingly big range of acting skill. I mean--I always knew it, but it's just a big contrast from the comedies he always does and is known for. It's the same with Jim Carrey. They're almost type-cast in comedic, goofy characters until they aren't, and they go hard.

Its actually a fun watch. This just happens to be the hardest scene. I also edited it to make it more dramatic.

Its also kind of lost to the public. I have no idea where you can stream it.

I mean I guess you could buy it on RU-vid, I cant see a lot of people doing that.

@@Impostorzim Yeah I think really the only way to watch it these days is to buy a physical copy or pirate it, both of which are not even close to optimal. Hopefully some streaming services pick it up soon. I'd rewatch it in a heartbeat if it was on Prime Video

Which Who song is it

@@Seth_O03 Love, Reign O'er Me by The Who

@@MrWalkway thanks man

Jesus dude. That... wow.

I grew up with Sandler so thats what makes this film fascinating. He's always done weird guys but there was never justification. This character on the other hand was normal guy, and his mind breaks after losing his family.

yeah, I can't remember a single movie ever focusing on the aftermath. A person's life after the events. In this case, someone who lost their entire family.

I made one for that too 😚 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0BWqrepsYNg.htmlsi=MQma9ZNd8tHlL0Cs

😳😳😳

Patterson proved he had talent before Batman. A black and white movie with William Defoe And another on Netflix of all places Tom Holland Sebastian Stan Devil all the time

@@shepardren8006 you missed Good Time and the rover

He was amazing in tennet too

​@@shepardren8006 also water for elephants

Are you talking about Robert Pattinson? lol

Whats my name? Dunkaccino

I really wanna make an Adam Compilation. One could be best comedy and another best drama.
