This is a 2006 version of The Girl, the Gold Watch & Everything!

Rating: Null/10 (22 June 2006)

OK, it's not a Gus Vant Sant style shot for shot remake, but it's the same premise. Yes, I know the Twlight Zone had an episode like this as well. But I just find it amazing that for as talented as Sandler is, Click boils down to TGTGW&E. I'm not a huge Sandler fan, but he has made some funny stuff. Happy Gilmore usually gets me in front of the TV when it's re-run, for instance. And I am a big fan of Walken, great, talented actor. BUT, like this if you want, I'm not knocking ANYONE who wants to see or enjoys Click, I'm just pointing out that Hollywood is doing some bad bottom barrel scraping here. Sandler can act, of course Punch Drunk Love is case #1 for that. After catching a screening this past weekend, I gotta say, this just doesn't do it for me. Some funny stuff in the cruelty dept, Hasselhoff continues to be a funny Icon of weirdness, but nah, not my cup of tea. Better effects than TGTGW&W, though.
