This is the most unusual Adam Sandler flick. Apparently, one of the most ridiculous, perhaps innocuous, less offensive I mean, yet a Sandler flick on the bottomline. He had been with Hollywood's pretty leading ladies, like Drew Barrymore and God-knows-who-else, and now flipping it up with the stunning Kate Beckinsale. So the tight question: was the movie any good?
As what have been mentioned, Click is the most unusual Sandler movie because it isn't as raunchy as his former films. I dig 50 First Dates and I think it was one of his greatest romantic films, or The Wedding Singer for that matter. But Click here involves fantasy, a bit ludicrous that is, and romance, family story and well, life. To say, the whole movie revolved around a single universal remote that controls the universe, to rightfully explain the titular "Click", which I roughly thought to be involved in some mobile phone. Anyway, as the film started to roll on its way, the commonest things happened the way a Sandler film does (and, oh, Sandler's acting was so monotonous like always watching shades of grey that you've grown sick watching it). It's filled with elements you could predict in a Sandler movie, toss in some green jokes, over-the-top plot, oftenly silly dialogues and purely nonsensical movie-making. But as the Click had finally had it's finger on the button, it evolved into a heartfelt story about family. This is what I like in the movie. The most unlikely event in a Sandler story. The movie was able to convey the message to the people, although obviously, and brought the right kind of screenplay that we didn't expect to befall. Shall I say, a miracle in a Sandler film. Sometimes the story could be really amusing, but on the end, it kind of reflected on me that humanity is now living with everything fast and forward and that we faintly realise that we just can't simply press rewind and go back. There are things that we should cherish, that we should be lingering on, but as time flies, we somehow become irrelevant to our own selves, much like indifferent to our own surroundings. A thumb-up to you Sandler. I just thought it's all purely rubbish in you. After all, you seem to have a dose of humanity in you. Click is not the film I was looking for but gladly, it's a film that made my one night filled with content.
