Funny, but sometime lame comedy

Rating: Null/10 (14 October 2006)

My wife and I wanted to watch a light movie - well it is light. Adam Sandler is quite a good protagonist, but Kate Beckinsale as a mother of two kids? Well, it's up to you to believe this.
After half the movie you start to think you know the end - and yes, you do know. The only question remaining is whether our hero Michael with the remote will turn around in the end or not.
This comedy is quite a fantasy/science-fiction comedy with a morale.
The special effects are not very new and we get the old joke what it would like if we got older - and fatter.
Because of a running gag about a dog and what he does to a giant cuddly toy, I would keep my children out of the movie until they know intend to do with one's leg.
But, again, for an evening with light entertainment, grab the remote and enjoy!
