Member Movie ReviewsReviewed on 11/18/2009... Childish and dramatic all in one film, 'Click' will warm your heart before it breaks it. This movie makes you glad for your pretty troubles and appreciate your family. Sandler's humor is always a tad foolish, but otherwise an excellent movie! 1 of 1 member(s) found this review helpful. Reviewed on 9/30/2009... Disgusting and offensive? I clearly watched a different movie than other reviewers....I agree however that this is not really a comedy, but the message is a good one. Yea, yea, there are dogs humping a stuffed animal...big deal. I didnt find any of this movie offensive in any way, or really disgusting. It is very sad however, so be prepared for it not to be funny, but instead to have a very powerful life message. 3 of 5 member(s) found this review helpful. Reviewed on 9/4/2009... Entertaining and funny 1 of 2 member(s) found this review helpful. Reviewed on 12/18/2008... If you like watching dogs hump, then this the movie for you. I went in, thinking I'd see a comedy. I got a sad, disgusting movie. I said I'd never watch another Adam Sandler movie after this one. Horrible movie!!!!! 2 of 5 member(s) found this review helpful.
Movie ReviewsMorty: "Think about it, you've skipped a year. That's a lot Annie Van Auken | Planet Earth | 07/01/2010 (4 out of 5 stars) "Adam Sandler has been in some superb movies in recent years. PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE (2002) began the trend; his performance in REIGN OVER ME (2007) is in a word: amazing. Just slightly below these in quality are FUNNY PEOPLE (2009) and CLICK.
This is a modern entry in a genre that was quite popular in the 1930s-40s, the angel/devil/spirit fantasy. Here, Sandler (as Michael Newman) is given a universal remote from an eccentric salesman named Morty (Walken). The device allows Michael to replay his past or fast forward over unpleasant moments in his daily life. What's he not aware of is that in doing so one time, the remote automatically skips any similar events. Michael can't stop this from occurring. His life races by as a result and he never experiences more than disjointed episodes of it. (A later consultation with Morty reveals who he really is but doesn't resolve the remote control issue.) Sandler and the other main cast members do a fine job (watch for a riotous Rob Schneider cameo as Prince Habeeboo). The only flaw perhaps is an ending copout. The story very easily could've concluded darkly and actually had until a dreaded deus ex machina was pulled out of the cobwebbed cliché bag for your happily-ever-after ta da. A minor complaint however. Recommended. Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 imdb viewer poll rating.
