It was written and directed by someone else entirely. Adam Sandler just stars in the movie. Anything actually good he’s been in hasn’t been one of his own projects.
One of my favorite movie anecdotes is that during some press conference promoting Magnolia someone asked Paul Thomas Anderson what his next movie is going to be and he said “a comedy with Adam Sandler” and everyone laughed. And then he made Punch Drunk Love.
I think the only exception is Punch Drunk Love which is coincidentally also the best movie he ever made

Also, Reign over Me was also pretty good.
