Everyone's a critic: 'Click'

One star (out of four)

(This review contains spoilers)

What is it with men and remote controls? World domination? Simply their own little universe domination?

Adam Sandler arrogantly plays a young married man with children who gets the offer of a lifetime -- a magical universal remote control. It speeds up his life, skips boring things like showering, fighting with his wife, eating and eventually makes him miss things like his wife leaving him, his children growing up and even his own heart attack. This mediocre movie does have a small redeeming factor -- Adam's character wakes up and gets the chance to do his life all over again.

The implication is that he'll be smarter in round two, but I don't know. I have seen sweet men turn mean with a remote control in their hands. "Click" is an attempt at comic humor, but really, how much advertising do Twinkies really need ... and the dog and duck shtick, gross and overdone. "Click."

"Click" was one of the best movies I've seen this year. As usual, Adam Sandler (who is one of my favorite actors) brought his character to life. As a man with a career and family, I identified with his struggles between spending enough time with his family and trying to get ahead in his career (which was for the sake of his family!). Sandler delivered a hit with this movie. Christopher Walken is hilarious in his role, and Henry Winkler brings additional entertainment in his portrayal of Sandler's father. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone.

Not having seen any previews for this movie, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was not disappointed. "Click" is a combination of comedy and seriousness that keeps its viewers entertained from start to finish.

I laughed loud enough to disturb people and cried enough to embarrass my husband! What can I say to give this movie the praise it deserves?

Adam Sandler, Christopher Walken and Henry Winkler are outstanding in their performances and remind the audience what's really important in life -- family.

Don't miss this one!
