I am not a huge Adam Sandler fan. Usually when I like him I am surprised. And Punch-Drunk Love (2002)is good example of why I don't think too much of the movie roles he chooses.
He plays Barry Egan, a weird, angry guy. And some chick, a friend of one of his many sisters falls for him, and he falls back. But his anger is so violent and disturbing, that I have trouble feeling anything but dislike for him, and I don't see why anyone would like someone so freakin' weird.
Needless to say, I didn't like the movie much. Sandler has done better stuff since then, and I think he is growing as an actor. Try Reign Over Me (2007) instead.
