What to Know

Critics Consensus

Sandy Wexler marks a mild improvement from the Adam Sandler vehicles immediately preceding it -- which in no way serves as an endorsement for non-hardcore fans.

Cinema Scope

Wexler isn't a particularly good movie, but it's mesmerizing all the same, projecting a strange mixture of heartfelt homage, reactionary nostalgia, lowbrow integrity, and contractually obligated indifference.

There's no way to recommend it, yet I wouldn't ask for my two hours back (though I do wish that they could have been sped up somewhat).

Variety

Though Sandy Wexler comes from a place of genuine affection, it feels oddly cruel. As depicted, Sandy isn't just oblivious, but borderline incompetent.

The celebrity cameos range from the expected to the embarrassing to the downright baffling...

Sandy Wexler is a bad movie, yes, but it's not at the level of bad that made me actively hate it like I did with Sandler's last two films. It's a step up for Sandler, but that's only because he's fallen so low.

Rated: 1.5/5

Adam Sandler's almost impressively steady spiral into irrelevance continues with Sandy Wexler...

Kim T I wasn't a fan of sandlers first Netflix film the ridiculous 6 but I quite enjoyed the do-over and I really liked this 3rd film. Sandler is funny and Jennifer Hudson was great too. I recommend. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/16/23 Full Review David F An okay insider Hollywood comedy about a terrible agent with a heart of gold. Enlivened by a lot of very funny cameos from some big stars. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/25/23 Full Review Wade W This has to be one of Sandler's worst outings. His voice is super annoying and obnoxious. I couldn't even get to the end. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/16/23 Full Review Alexander G If you like Sandler, his role as Sandy Wexler is a must see. If you hate Sandler, you probably won't like this one either. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review letaiser This whole Movie was so stupid even the Charakter of Adam Sandler was so annoying that I wished he wasn't even on the movie ,I mean the Idea is not bad a Girl who's beginning to get a Star and he is falling in Love on her but the whole movie wasn't working for me Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review Krishna K Adam Sandler fan here, loved this movie, this proves that when this guy is committed to his work it brings results Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
