Since the early 90s, star actor Adam Sandler has appeared in hundreds of movies, expanding to different genres. As one of the great comedic geniuses, we have him to thank for many classics like Happy Gilmore, The Waterboy, Mr.Deeds, and so many more.
It seems like there's a movie for anybody, with every role differing from the last, each leaving an impression in one way or another. There's no shortage of humor or unique stories told by Adam Sandler. Using the Zodiac signs and astrology, let's find the perfect Adam Sandler movie for each sign.
Scorpio - Mr.Deeds
Scorpios are often seen as cold or confrontational but are really just very emotional people. They are great and humble leaders who may act on their emotions but they are always prepared for what's ahead for them.
Mr. Deeds tells a story about a young nobody who finds he inherited millions of dollars from an estranged uncle and he sets out to his life with his newfound money. Along the way, he meets a reporter (Winona Ryder) disguising herself as a damsel in distress to get the inside scoop on the newest millionaire. Deeds is a kind-hearted and humble person who does have a habit of losing his temper and punching out people who disrespect him.
Virgo - The Waterboy
Virgos are very practical and methodical individuals, often planning everything and leaving nothing to chance. They are very analytical and rarely show their true emotions, giving them a shy and reserved personality.
The Waterboy is a story about a reserved young water boy who takes his job a little too seriously and has an overprotective mother who shields him from the world despite being a full-grown man. When he realizes he is a prodigy football player, he quickly gets over his shyness and becomes one of the best players on his team.
Sagittarius - Billy Madison
Saggitariuses are among the biggest travelers and most spiritual and adventurous of the sign. They are always looking for meaning in their lives and are willing to go the extra mile to find the answers they are looking for.
Billy Madison is about a spoiled man-child who is forced to repeat grades K-8th in order to obtain his inheritance. He makes the most of his experience, being the oldest in every grade and excelling and making friends along the way.
Gemini - Happy Gilmore
Geminis often get a bad rep for being unpredictable and hard to read but they are very adaptable and can learn quickly and efficiently. Part of a Gemini's personality is being easily bored and always looking for the next big thing to be a part of and quickly adapting to make it a possibility.
In Happy Gilmore, Sandler plays a former Hockey player who gets banned from the sport due to his aggression and then quickly transitions into a prodigy in Golf. Sandler's character is very unstable and unpredictable, often letting his temper get the best of him despite being a kind-hearted person who looks after his grandma, a good representation of a Gemini.
Taurus - Anger Management
Tauruses are often seen as the most stubborn and hardworking of the Zodiacs, with a grounded and stable mindset. They love being surrounded by beauty and often have to fight their inner urges to lash out and let their temper get the best of them despite being level headed for the most part.
In Anger Management, Dave (Adam Sandler's character) is a mild-mannered assistant who bottles up his anger and trauma until he snaps on a flight attendant and is forced to take anger management classes with an unorthodox psychologist (Jack Nicholson), who makes him face his demons and all those who wronged him.
Aries - Uncut Gems
As the first sign in the Zodiac, Aries are always diving headfirst into anything and are determined to be first in everything they do. Life is a competition for them and they want to be first in everything they do and are willing to do anything to stay on top.
Adam Sandler's character in Uncut Gems is a determined jeweler who stops at nothing to build up his clientele and provide the best possible jewelry to his customers. He even spends thousands of dollars on a rare gem that's priceless just so he can say he has it.
Libra - 50 First Dates
Libras are all about balance, and partnerships. Libras are big on relationships and they hate being alone, not feeling fulfilled unless they have a loved one by their side. They are in a constant chase for equality and peace and will stop at nothing to achieve it.
50 First Dates captures the Libra spirit perfectly with Adam Sandler's character playing a Zoologist that falls in love with a woman with a rare form of amnesia. Although she can never remember the events of the day before, Sandler still dedicates himself to making her fall in love with him every day, as if they're meeting for the first time.
Pisces - Big Daddy
Pisces are very compassionate and loving people, always ready to help others. They are very intuitive and gentle, and they hate being alone.
Big Daddy is about a man who's down on his luck and newly single and then he suddenly discovers he had a kid with an estranged girlfriend who leaves him on his doorstep. Although their relationship is rocky at first, he grows into his fatherly role and learns to love the kid, even teaching him some new trick to overcoming his fears.
Capricorn - Click
Capricorns are masters of self-control. They are very good at managing themselves and are responsible with their time and efforts. They are extremely independent and resourceful, and often use mistakes as experience and learning steps towards a better life.
Click tells a story of an overworked architect who has trouble finding time for his family and work until he is given a magical remote capable of controlling time. After using it a couple of times and enjoying the benefits, he quickly realizes that time is precious and that every second should be spent with ones you love.
Leo- The Longest Yard
Leos are the kings of their own little world. They are extremely charismatic and confident leaders, often getting anyone to flock to them. They are most comfortable in the spotlight and can handle all the pressure that goes with all eyes on them.
The classic remake, The Longest Yard, tells the story of a washed-out quarterback who finds himself in jail and in an attempt to get his life back on track, he agrees to build a team of fellow prisoners to play against the very guards that harass and beat up on the prisoners. As a QB, Sandler's character needed the charm and leadership skills to round up the team and turn them from pretenders to competitors.
Aquarius - Spanglish
Aquariuses are both shy and reserved and energetic and eccentric. They see the world with no prejudice or biases and are very accepting of people from all backgrounds and cultures.
Spanglish is about a successful, small family that offers their home to a young, Hispanic single mother who attempts to raise her child while being the maid for the family. The families quickly learn how different their lives are and tensions run.
Cancer- Bedtime Stories
Cancers are highly imaginative and they have a soft spot for their loved ones and friends, showing extreme loyalty despite their reserved nature. Cancer's are also known for being highly imaginative and creative, spending more time with their head in the clouds than in the real world.
Skeeter Bronson (Adam Sandler) plays a hotel handyman who discovers that somehow the stories his niece and nephew are coming true despite their outlandish nature and over the top fantasy. This movie captures the essence of a Cancer perfectly, with Sandler's character showing his loving nature looking after his niece and nephew and his imagination coming up with all these great stories.
