Click (2006)

Synopsis: Adam Sandler plays Michael Newman who has all the potential to be a partner at his architecture firm but just doesn't get the promotion because hey! it's life. But he's sick of life! He's fighting back and he begins by buying a unversial remote to conquer his TV. But he gets more than he asks for when Morty, Christopher Walkin, gives him the blue doom. At first it's pretty cool. He can pretty much control his entire universe. The remote even has a learning function to do exactly what he has done before. But before he knows it, he's fast-forwarding through his whole life wishing for another chance.

Should You Watch It? Some people will just shrug this off as being another stupid Sandler movie but I assure you that he man has changed! it was evident in Spanglish that he was already a different actor seeking different roles. This movie is definitely it. It combines his natural talents in comedy and mixes it with a strong story line supported by an amazing cast which includes Kate Beckinsale as his wife. And her tight rockin' body will drive you crazy!

Things to Watch Out For: This movie is pretty deep and it's all about the journey is worth more than the destination and appreciating life and family and stuff like that. Okay now that we got that out of the way we can talk about more superficial stuff that people care about. The special effects in this movie are pretty great and pretty well done. The remote control poses some challenges and this movie was a lot more expensive because of the time travel involved, but they didn't skimp on it which makes it a lot better. Oh yeah! David Hasselhoff plays a pretty big role in this film and he's pretty great haha....of course he's great cause he brings his entourage of hot girls with no brains.

Things You Don't Expect: You will cry in this movie. I don't care if you're like some hardcore serial killer who hates kittens. You will cry cause no matter how much of a bitch we are inside, we still have that soft core for our parents and family cause you just can't hate people who will always love you unconditionally. Oh yeah did I mention that Kate Beckinsale is really hot?
