An amazing surprise...

Rating: 9/10 (4 July 2006)

I went to this movie after getting to the theater late and not being able to see SuperMan Begins (later this week). Out of the other movies playing I wound up going to see "Click" and was sitting there eating my bucket of pop corn expecting a 90 minute screaming at the top of his lungs joke fest from Sandler. What I got was something much more and a movie I'll remember for a while.
Obviously you know the story by now; Sandler is a workaholic who wants the best for his family and kids... Christopher Walken gives him a remote (at his local Bed, Bath, and Beyond) and now Sandler can control time itself. Much to my surprise the movie had so much more to offer than that. Sandler showed that he can be taken seriously as his character ages and also showed that he can evoke emotion in the audience (I noticed several people in the theater crying during some of the later scenes.) The cast was amazing and the fact that the Fonz (yes... THE FONZ!) played his father was great. For anybody who is debating about seeing this film I say run to the theater as this is one movie that has been way to underrated.
