Happy Gilmore 2
This Netflix sequel brings back Adam Sandler's beloved golf anti-hero for a story that leans into grief, alcoholism, and crude adult comedy throughout its nearly two-hour runtime. The PG-13 rating is a firm one here: strong and frequent profanity, sexual jokes and partial nudity, drinking played for laughs alongside a serious addiction subplot, and slapstick violence that occasionally turns darker all add up to content squarely aimed at teens and grown-ups.
Best enjoyed by teens 13 and up who are already fans of Adam Sandler's comedy style, ideally with a parent handy to talk through the drinking storyline.
If you’d rather skip
Happy's wife is struck and killed by his golf ball; the moment is implied rather than graphic but sets a heavier emotional tone than the original film ever had.
Happy's alcoholism is established and revisited repeatedly, including scenes of him hiding alcohol and being shown visibly drunk; a separate character smokes marijuana.
A man is thrown into a tank of live lobsters and attacked; played for laughs but involves real-looking biting and physical distress.
