Adam Sandler still coasts on American pop culture's peculiar indulgence of boys who won't grow up

It's a farce about loss, and it doesn't flinch.

I think if you're going to have a David Hasselhoff type of character and you're going to have the flatulence type of humor, then just go in that direction. Don't try to put in all this sappy stuff.

The jokes don't come frequently enough in Click, and aren't all that funny.

Click brings up some very real problems about adult life but it answers them with Hollywood platitudes ... granted, it's about having fun not trying to find solutions to the problems of modern existence, but it still seems a bit disingenuous.

A fascinating film with an unresolved comedy/tragedy axis

"Click" is a one-trick-pony of a comedy.

Another crude Adam Sandler movie. For fans only.

As a broad family comedy this is perfectly acceptable, but from a sci-fi point of view it's a very pale imitation of the time travel classics it seeks to ape.

For all its competing aspirations, the movie just never clicks.

Nice DVD of one of the year's most overrated films.

A movie with a lot of wasted potential. It looks like it was made by a bunch of schmucks.

The Special Edition DVD release of Click is a simple matter of an average film with a better-than-average collection.

It's kind of a reverse "It's A Wonderful Life" as Mike see's what happens to those around him when he pushes a button.

Click is so stupid, even for an Adam Sandler film. The idea may not be that original but it has huge potential in the right hands. It starts off silly, then get depressingly dramatic and totally surreal - none of which can be taken seriously and none of which seed particularly thought out. Just when it gets close to

It's climax became one of my fondest moments of one Adam Sandler, it's often bright comedy enlightened, a rare moment for Adam.
