Adam Sandler has spent the tail end of the 2010s winning everyone back. There was the guy that dedicated a full year to his films, his fantastic standup special, his return to Saturday Night Live and his buzzy performance in Uncut Gems. As if that weren't enough, he also starred in the most-watched Netflix release of 2019.
Directed by Workaholics's Kyle Newachuk, the delightfully mediocre Murder Mystery arrived on Netflix earlier this year and saw the Sand-man once again star alongside Jennifer Aniston. Despite mixed reviews, it's the most popular thing released on Netflix in 2019.
