How does the Tomatometer work Help Icon

Reviews Counted:163

Fresh:52

Rotten:111

Average Rating:4.8/10

Consensus: This latest Adam Sandler vehicle borrows shamelessly from It's A Wonderful Life and Back To The Future, and fails to produce the necessary laughs that would forgive such imitation.

Rated: PG-13 [See Full Rating] for language, crude and sex-related humor, and some drug references

Runtime: 1 hr 47 mins

Genre: Comedies

Theatrical Release:Jun 23, 2006 Wide

Box Office: $137,340,146

Synopsis: Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) is married to the beautiful Donna (Kate Beckinsale) and they have two terrific kids, Ben (Joseph Castanon) and Samantha (Tatum McCann). But he doesn't get to see them... Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) is married to the beautiful Donna (Kate Beckinsale) and they have two terrific kids, Ben (Joseph Castanon) and Samantha (Tatum McCann). But he doesn't get to see them much because he's putting in long, hard hours at his architectural firm in the elusive hope that his ungrateful boss (David Hasselhoff) will one day recognize his invaluable contribution and make him a partner. Once he's on easy street, he'll be able to lavish attention on the wife and kiddies. At least, that's what he tells himself. After staying up all night to work, a tired Michael becomes frustrated because he can't even figure out which of his remotes will turn on the TV set. Michael sets out to find the perfect device to operate all his electronic equipment and stumbles into the back room of a Bed, Bath & Beyond, where an eccentric employee, Morty (Christopher Walken), gives him an experimental one-of-a-kind souped-up gadget guaranteed to change his life. Morty wasn't kidding either. Soon Michael is master of his domain, turning on every appliance with the click of a button. But the device has other, more startling functions. It can somehow muffle the barking of Sundance, the family dog — and even more astoundingly, fast forward through an annoying quarrel with his wife. Michael is fascinated by his new toy and a little freaked out as well. He decides to pay another visit to Morty, the guy who sold him the mysterious device. Morty tells Michael he gave him exactly what he asked for — a universal remote that lets him control his universe. Right before Michael's astonished eyes, Morty demonstrates the device's mind-boggling advanced features, including a function that lets Michael travel back and forth through his life at different speeds. Michael quickly becomes addicted to this new rush of power, which literally allows him to have his cake and eat it too. But before he knows it, the remote is programming him, rather than the other way around. And try as he might, a panicked Michael can't stop the device from deciding which events of his life he'll experience and which ones he'll miss. Only then does he begin to truly appreciate and embrace his life — the good, the bad and the ugly. --© Sony Pictures [More]

Believe it or not, the gross out jokes won't leave a bad taste in the mouth; the gushy life lessons will.

uneasy mix of sloppy sentiment and genuine mean-spiritedness that Sandler tries, and fails, to conflate with a schizophrenic performance

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

... the broad humor expected in a Sandler production ... fart jokes, mild naughtiness ... clashes with the tone when things turn serious

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.

This is definitely not one of Sandler's best films -- no 'Wedding Singer' romantic sensitivity or 'Waterboy' innocent appeal emerges here.

Adam Sandler continues to crassly cannibalize Frank Capra films with Click, a movie that starts with comedic promise but ultimately degenerates into a maudlin mishmash.

... Screenwriters Steve Koren and Mark O’Keefe decide to go Capra-cornish on us and throw in some maudlin dramatics, trying to make Click a contemporary It’s a Wonderful Life.

Click will surely dishearten even Sandler's most forgiving faithful, while putting the casual viewer right to sleep.

The effort is there, but nothing can save 'Click' from being another raunch-fest starring the emoting challenged Sandler.

As a comic, Adam Sandler has never had an original thought, or if he did, he probably assumed he had stolen it from somebody, he just didn't know who.

It's the ultimate in cinematic channel-surfing. ... As a result, this jumbled comedy-drama develops a serious (and we do mean serious) multiple-personality problem.

A sour comedy about an unpleasant guy that morphs into a sour drama about an even less pleasant guy.

With the jokes as predictable as they are unremarkable, "Click" ultimately should have turned its remote on itself, pressed rewind, and allowed us to revisit Sandler's best film, "Punch Drunk Love."

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

Adam Sandler's latest effort is a clumsy, inconsistent fusion of the lowbrow comedy that made him a star and his more recent, unworkable stabs at drama in Punch-Drunk Love and Spanglish.
