Another Adam Sandler Movie Is Making Waves on Netflix

By Charlie Ridgely

Over the past few years, Adam Sandler has established himself as the undisputed king of Netflix. Each and every movie on the service that features the comedy icon has had its time in the spotlight. It doesn't matter of these movies are new originals that the Sandman produced for Netflix or if they're his older titles that recently made their way to the streamer's lineup, subscribers love watching anything that stars Adam Sandler.

The actor's dominance has been proven once again, as yet another one of his forgotten films has found itself a substantial streaming audience after arriving on Netflix. The movie in question is The Longest Yard, and it's currently one of Netflix's most popular movies.

Sandler's 2005 remake of the classic sports comedy was a solid box office hit when it was released, despite premiering to middling reviews. 17 years later, the film is gaining some buzz on Netflix, where it currently stands as the seventh-most popular movie on the entire service. A newly added movie with Adam Sandler on the poster always seems to find success with Netflix subscribers, and The Longest Yard is no exception.
