On the whole, very good

Rating: 8/10 (15 January 2007)

This movie came out on my birthday, so my family and I went to see it as a sort of birthday present. I wasn't expecting much, as it was just something to do for my birthday and a way of entertainment, but we got a lot more than just that. On the whole I would say it was very good, though there are a few things that I think should have been done differently in order to make it better.
First of all, Click shouldn't have been made into a comedy. The jokes that were used were tasteless and crude, and the action got annoying and slow at some points. The whole thing should have been made into a drama, which is what roughly the second half of the movie is. With the drama part alone this movie had the ability to move viewers to tears. I know I cried, and I began to reflect on my own life and life's little moments. If the whole movie had been that way, I think it could have been much better rated and held in higher esteem. Take out the fart jokes, the duck humping, the sexual innuendos and all the other tasteless junk that was thrown in in an attempt to pull off some cheap laughs. Not everything hinting at comedic effect should be scrapped though. I liked the part with James Earl Jones and that one guy at the Bed, Bath, and Beyond, plus some other things. Just the crude stuff bugged me.
There were some other things that didn't really seem plausible. Like the fact that every woman in the office except the secretary was incredibly good looking and that they were all looking at Adam Sandler like he was the hottest man alive. Give me a break. He's not physically attractive, and there is no way that that many good looking women would be working in one place. But on the whole, the movie is very good and I believe is worth seeing at least once.
