Cambia la tua vita con un click

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.

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

Going in to this movie I expected to have the normal 2 hour thoughtless escape from everyday life that these type movies normally deliver. Instead I laughed. I even cried. I left pleasantly surprised. Leaving the theatre I couldn't help reflect upon the need to really appreciate life's little moments and close friends and family more. Walken was outstanding. Sandler was effective and really funny in his toned down approach to this more intelligent comedy than the usual Sandler fare. Kate Beckinsale is very lovable as the wife and mother of his children and Hasslehoff couldn't have been more perfectly cast as the cluelessly self-absorbed exec/ boss. I liked it a lot and I'm not normally one to feel either way about these type of movies. I'd go see it next time with family and friends that I really should spend more time with anyway!

This movie plays like a comedy, does some crappy jokes, which takes this movie down a bit from what it really is - a great drama. It has amazing character development it shows us why family is important. It's a great drama for whole family.
