Mr. Deeds
It must be great fun to be a pal of Adam Sandler's. Being a member of his audience is considerably less of a treat.
Mr. Deeds, Sandler's latest film, was put on paper by Tim Herlihy, said to be the star's college roommate, who's written or co-written six of his other films.

In gentle, pleasant Wedding Singer mode, Sandler is a cute enough l...
