Klick

I love this movie. This is one of my favorite Sandler movies. This was the only movie coming close to making me cry. Incredible heartwarming comedy. Must see if you love Adam Sandler and comedy!

When one thinks of an Adam Sandler film, the phrase "juvenile humor" immediately comes to mind, filled with low-brow humor and outlandish acting. Fortunately, "Click" is a departure (for the most part) from that categorization by providing an interesting story, developed characters, and very solid acting.

For a basic plot summary, "Click" sees Michael Newman (Sandler) struggling to find time for his family while wearing himself out for his never-impressed boss. On a routine trip to find a universal TV remote, Michael runs into a crazy scientist (played by Christopher Walken) who gives him a "universal remote", alright...one that can control his entire life! Hilarity, emotions, & hijinks ensue.

Besides the novel concept, this movie outshines other Sandler flicks due to its heart. While shaping up (in the early goings) to be a hijinks comedy, somewhere along the way a heavy dose of emotion is thrown into the proceedings. By the end of the film, the viewer will actually care about the main characters and want to see their resolutions.

Granted, "Click" does still contain some of the typical Sandler low-brow humor, but it isn't too over-the-top or suffocating. Far outweighing that aspect is the above-average acting from pretty much the entire cast, which produces a real connection between characters and audience.

Overall, "Click" is a fun little movie (though not for the younger kiddies) that may (at least in a small way) change your perception of Mr. Sandler. This isn't his goofy "Waterboy" or farcical "Billy Madison". Instead, director Frank Coraci crafts an actual storyline filled with character development and fun concepts.

Heartwarming and thought-provoking comedy-drama that brings laughter and tears in equal measure.

First and foremost, Adam Sandler's performance as Michael Newman is delightful. He brings his signature humor and charm to the character, making Michael a relatable and endearing protagonist. Sandler's portrayal evolves from lighthearted comedy to moments of genuine emotion, showcasing his versatility as an actor.

The film's premise of a magical remote control that controls time is a unique and creative concept. The comedic moments, especially when Michael uses the remote to manipulate situations, bring a lot of laughs. However, as the story progresses, the film takes an unexpectedly poignant turn, exploring the importance of family and the value of living in the present.

The emotional depth of the narrative is beautifully balanced with humor, making Click a touching and heartwarming film. It manages to tug at your heartstrings while still delivering moments of laugh-out-loud comedy.

The supporting cast, including Kate Beckinsale, Christopher Walken, and David Hasselhoff, complements Sandler's performance with their own comedic talents. The interactions between the characters add to the film's overall charm.

The film's exploration of the consequences of chasing success at the expense of family time is relatable and thought-provoking. It serves as a reminder of the importance of cherishing the moments with our loved ones.

In conclusion, Click is a touching and enjoyable film that offers a perfect blend of humor and heartfelt moments. With Adam Sandler's engaging performance, the creative premise, and the film's valuable message, it's a movie that leaves a lasting impression.

If you're looking for a comedy-drama that brings laughter, tears, and valuable life lessons, Click is a must-watch. It's a film that reminds us to appreciate the present and cherish the time we have with our loved ones.

I love this movie . I've been watching it since I was a child/teenager and I rewatched it now in my middle 20s and I still love it . It gets me so emotional every time . It's a comedy with a deep meaning that has me feeling delighted and content every time I watch it. And I confess I cry near the end every time . It's not the "ha ha" type of comedy really. It's just a light hearted movie with a few jokes here and there and a good emotional message to pass to the viewers. One of my favorites . The only reason I'm writing this review now so many years later is that I saw the 6.4 rating and I could not believe it . How is that even possible? Maybe from 1s from people expecting to see something else entirely ? What can I say besides how much I still appreciate this movie..

Only a 10 can be given to this monumental art piece that changed cinema forever.
