The script was inspired by the superior film "Broadway Danny Rose" as we watch real people talk about a dysfunctional talent agent. The similarity ended there. Adam Sandler hits many of the Jewish stereotypes in his role as he discovers a real talent in Jennifer Hudson. He also realizes she is too talented to have him as an agent. I found Sandler to be more annoying than funny, but he has a great support cast that made the film worth a peek. Guide: No F-words, sex, or nudity. Beavis and Butthead adult talk.

Sandy Wexler is one of the most underrated comedies of 2017. The diverse cast of Grammy Award winning musicians and award winning actors is delightful. Adam Sandler's creativity is undeniable in this fun loving story. Jennifer Hudson is playful and whimsical opposite Sandler in their daring interracial relationship. Sandler takes risks that very few screenwriters are willing to take in this Conservative era of race baiting. Sandy Wexler could certainly have been a major box office success, and it's a streaming treasure. It's highly recommended to Jennifer Hudson fans and Kevin James fans alike. There are so many stars in this comedic amalgam who are very rarely seen together.

It seems the Americans desperate, deliberate hate towards Adam Sandler, Michale Bay et cetera never going to calm down, even they have started to give good films. That's an unfortunate mindset from the west. While the rest of the world enjoying these guys films without prejudice. This is not Sandlers best, but a better one. Initially, it annoyed me to see the Sandler with the same old accent. But seeing the some of the scenes, it actually made sense. I especially thought it should have been a serious drama, but then it would haven't worked out with the kind of characters it had. Particularly the Kevin James.It is a 90s tale about a Hollywood manager. Narrated as a flashback as the film stars recall his legacy. His latest find, a young woman with a golden voice, is an upcoming sensation. He always stood for her in all the good and bad situations. But time comes he to back off and focus on his other clients. The remaining is about his job, how it shapes are told. I have heard that it was loosely based on Sandler's own manager. I also liked cameos, particularly Rikishi! A long film. But I liked it at the end. It is an okay film. Those who hate Sandler should stay away and let the rest of the guys enjoy it.6.5/10

Don't listen to the haters. This movie was hilarious and I laughed all throughout. Some people just go into everything LOOKING for things to whine about... If you're just looking to enjoy yourself and have a bunch of laughs...then tread forward and do just that, I say. With "That's My Boy," my faith in Adam Sandler was restored. "The Do- Over" blew me away too, and "Sandy Wexler" was just as silly and hilarious. Stop taking yourselves so seriously, and allow yourselves to be entertained by and to laugh at this silly and heartwarming movie.
