Billy Madison (1995)
7/10
Silly and fun
16 December 2023
Billy Madison has always been my favourite Adam Sandler film, I have never found him funnier than in this one.

It's very goofy and juvenile but it's definitely funny. The cast are all decent enough, and the late Chris Farley is entertaining in his role. Bridgette Wilson does a good enough job as the titular character's teacher/love interest. Some people view this film as being slightly problematic these days but I don't think it's that offensive. The story feels like it should have developed more but overall the result of the film is one that is entertaining and funny at the same time. There is no doubt that the film's humour is not complex but some films don't need more complicated stuff.

As a goofball 90s comedy, this is a good example.
