The release of “ Happy Gilmore 2 ,” the Netflix sequel to the 1996 comedy hit, is just days away. While Hollywood hot shots might be sweating audience awareness polls or gauging social media chatter, Tim Herlihy — who co-wrote both films with star Adam Sandler — has a more pressing concern: catching up with yard work at his quiet Connecticut home.

"Happy Gilmore 2" has landed safely on the fairway and is now streaming on Netflix. With Adam Sandler, Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald and more reprising their memorable roles in this sequel, Rotten Tomatoes has given the movie a critic Tomatometer rating of 64% and an audience Popcornmeter score of 73%.

Netflix has just released Happy Gilmore 2, but whether it's actually going to be worth watching or not is an open question.
