145. The Ridiculous 6
NetflixRole: Tommy "White Knife" Stockburn
Rotten Tomatoes score: 0%
If you're a fan of westerns but wish they had more casual racism, then here's a movie for you. The rest of us will pass.
244. Jack and Jill
Columbia PicturesRole: Jack Sadelstein / Jill Sadelstein
Rotten Tomatoes score: 3%
Adam Sandler, as a man, is pretty insufferable. Now, throw on a wig, some makeup, and his incredibly broad concepts of femininity and womanhood, and you get what is possibly a masterclass in misogyny!

343. Zookeeper
Columbia PicturesRole: Donald the Capuchin Monkey
Rotten Tomatoes score: 14%
Night at the Museum, but with a zoo—and Adam Sandler is a monkey.
442. The Do-Over
NetflixRole: Max Kessler
Rotten Tomatoes score: 9%
They need a do-over on The Do-Over to try to make a good movie. And this crappy pun is funnier than this entire film.

541. Mixed Nuts
TriStar PicturesRole: Louie
Rotten Tomatoes score: 13%
This deserves to be on here mostly because Adam Sandler is also in the worst Steve Martin movie and the worst Nora Ephron movie.
640. Going Overboard
L.A. Dreams ProductionsRole: Schecky Moskowitz
Rotten Tomatoes score: 11%
Adam Sandler's first starring role in a movie! What happens when you get trapped on a cruise ship with Adam Sandler?

739. Shakes the Clown
IRS MediaRole: Dink the Clown
Rotten Tomatoes score: 43%
This is obviously not "an Adam Sandler film," but rather "a Bobcat Goldthwait film," which is perhaps an equally dubious description.
838. Grown Ups 2
Columbia PicturesRole: Leonard "Lenny" Feder
Rotten Tomatoes score: 8%
Sometimes, Adam Sandler just wants to take a long vacation with a few old comedy friends and get paid millions for it. This was another one of those times.

937. The Animal
Revolution StudiosRole: Townie
Rotten Tomatoes score: 30%
Adam Sandler hanger-on Rob Schneider fronts this pretty dumb movie in which he receives animal organ transplants after a car accident. He brought along his buddy Sandler for the ride, giving him a tiny (but credited!) cameo.
1036. Coneheads
Paramount PicturesRole: Carmine Weiner
Rotten Tomatoes score: 35%
You can't deny that "Carmine Weiner" is a very Adam Sandler Character Name.

1135. Pixels
Columbia PicturesRole: Sam Brenner
Rotten Tomatoes score: 18%
Why make a movie about video game nostalgia but make all the beloved video game characters bad guys? Also Peter Dinklage's wig is a sin.
1234. Blended
Gulfstream PicturesRole: Jim Friedman
Rotten Tomatoes score: 15%
Here's 50 First Dates in Africa.

1333. Bulletproof
Universal PicturesRole: Archie Moses
Rotten Tomatoes score: 8%
There's actually a pretty great quote from director Ernest Dickerson about this movie: "There's a movie I did a couple years ago called Bulletproof. I'd like to just erase that whole experience."
1432. The Cobbler
Voltage PicturesRole: Max Simkin
Rotten Tomatoes score: 10%
This is not, in fact, about the popular dessert, but rather about a shoemaker who magically transforms into people when he puts on their footwear. This allows Sandler to get into a number of problematic situations, including becoming one of his neighbors so he can creep on the man's attractive girlfriend.

Rotten Tomatoes score: 11%
Sometimes, Adam Sandler just wants to take a long vacation with a few old comedy friends and get paid millions for it. This was one of those times.
1630. Bedtime Stories
DisneyRole: Skeeter Bronson
Rotten Tomatoes score: 27%

1729. The Week Of
NetflixRole: Kenny Lustig
Rotten Tomatoes score: 26%
If you've ever been in wedding, you know that the long week or planning before the ceremony is only worth it because there will be an open bar at the end of the whole thing. You can drink while you watch this one, but you'll have to pay for your own booze.
1828. Just Go With It
Columbia PicturesRole: Dr. Daniel Leroy "Danny" Maccabee III
Rotten Tomatoes score: 19%
Another in the long line of rom-coms Sandler made (this time with Jennifer Aniston), but this one has the added bonus of...Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman? (Seriously.)

1927. That's My Boy
Columbia PicturesRole: Donald "Donny" Berger
Rotten Tomatoes score: 20%
Sandler pairs with Andy Samberg for this multi-generational comic mess—which, we hope, taught Samberg not to follow in the footsteps of his fellow SNL alum.
2026. Little Nicky
New Line CinemaRole: Nicky
Rotten Tomatoes score: 21%
The first of Sandler's box office failures, this one features him as the son of the Devil, with a speech impediment and Kris Jenner's haircut.
