Reading about the movie Grown Ups, I read the following :

"Adam Sandler is always on the top of the race when it comes to comedy genre"

And I thought, is he really? I can't remember ever thinking Adam Sandler was particularly funny. I find the characters he plays to generally be unfunny, often pathetic and lacking in charm. His hesitant style is grating. His unlikeability sort of suited him in the 2009 movie Funny People where he co-starred the much funnier Seth Rogen as Adam's character was kind of a douche. But for general purpose comedy? Bleh.

So, personally, I feel even Rob Schneider is much funnier. What do you think?
