Anger Management

Comedy106 min

After a minor incident on a flight spirals into a courtroom mess, Adam Sandler is Dave Buznik, a timid businessman ordered into anger management with Jack Nicholson’s Dr. Buddy Rydell, a therapist whose methods are anything but calming. What starts as mandatory counseling turns stranger when Buddy inserts himself into Dave’s home and daily life, pushing every button he can find. As the treatment upends Dave’s job, relationship, and sense of control, the movie leans on the clash between Sandler’s tightly wound anxiety and Nicholson’s gleefully confrontational chaos.
