Happy Gilmore 2 just dropped on Netflix, and while it’s probably not going to win any Oscars, most fans seem to be really pleased with the sequel, me included. It’s a goofy good time with some big laughs and a ton of cameos and returning characters. It also includes one big WTF death scene that left me and the actress involved absolutely shocked.

Bowen, 55, has looked back on her upbringing with a real estate developer father who taught her a "golden rule" about success.

Bowen reprises her character, Virginia Venit, in the comedy classic's second installment. Within the first four minutes of the film, Venit — who's since married Happy, welcomed five kids together and started a family — gets killed off, a tragedy caused by her husband.

Happy Gilmore 2 finally premiered on Netflix after a decades-long gap from the first movie, but this time, the movie went in an offbeat direction with a major death within the first half of the film.

Nearly 30 years after the original, "Happy Gilmore 2" brings a who's who of stars from the PGA, NFL, NBA, WWE and more.

Grading the film a B-, IndieWire quipped that "More often than not, it makes the shot" and commended Sandler on his comedic stylings, noting: "It is also often quite funny. Most of that humour comes care of Sandler, who slips back into Happy with something like grizzled ease."

The opening minutes of the long-awaited Happy Gilmore sequel reveal a legacy character has been shockingly killed off.

The eagerly anticipated "Happy Gilmore 2," which was heavily filmed in NJ, is releasing this week. Here's how to watch, time, cast and more.
