Punch Drunk Love 
Main Actor(s)/Actresses: Adam Sandler, Emily Watson
Memorable supporting cast: Philip Seymour Hoffman, Luis Guzmán
Plot: Sandler plays Barry Egan who has his own business selling toilet plungers. He is hen-pecked by his group of sisters who try to set him up with dates. They don’t work out. He even is so lonely that he calls a phone sex line which sets off a whole set of events. But, one of his sister’s set-ups finally works out without her knowledge. Watch to see what happens.
Extra thoughts: This is one of Sandler’s top 5 movies to date. If you have waited to see Sandler lose his temper for the right reasons and take it out on the bad guys then this is the one to see. If you have not seen it, see it.
