The sequel’s release boosted interest in the original “Happy Gilmore,” which is also available on Netflix. The decades-old comedy ranked at No. 3 on the global top 10 list with 11.4 million views, marking its second consecutive week on the list.

Happy Gilmore surges up the Streaming Top 10, giving Netflix its biggest movie streaming debut of 2025 so far.

I gotta tell you, as someone whose favorite Adam Sandler movie is Uncut Gems, I did not expect to enjoy Happy Gilmore 2 as much as I did. While watching the sequel, in which he reprises the title role of an unlikely golfing champ, with my Netflix subscription, there was rarely a time I was not laughing.

As you may know, Happy Gilmore 2 finally hit our screens last week, and it is jam-packed with celebrity cameos — in fact, Screen Rant estimated that there are at least 72 surprise appearances in the movie’s 114-minute runtime.
