Extremely surprised with this film and I very much enjoyed it. It was weird that an Adam Sandler film actually made me feel quite a bit. Above average viewing to say the least

I hated every minute of this movie, the dialogue was crass, the acting was poor and what ever made hollywood think we need to see Sandler in a fat suit is beyond me all in alll i give this 1 star

i was dragged along to this at ten thirty last night and fully expected to hate it but it really wasnt that bad. i think its a strong concept, and if handled by a more capable filmmaker such as michel gondry it could have been amazing. of course the expected hollywood ending took a lot away from the film but it really wasnt bad.

I really did enjoy this film! It has everything that Adam Sandler fans (moi) hope for in one of his films: good acting, soppy moments and lots of humour! And this film deff delivers that! A nice heartfelt comedy which will make you laugh, cry and maybe want to eat a little less when you see Adam Sandler in the fat suite! However it loses a star as it seems a little slow in some places!

it was an interesting idea for a film which could have been much better- considering it wasn't that funny for a comedy. a pretty average performance from all- best part was the fart scene- not much else to ruin as it plods on.

There's a lot of Adam Sandler haters out there, but I've always enjoyed his films as entertaining if instantly forgettable.
Click is no different, though it was far more touching than I expected. Sure it could have been trimmed by about ten minutes and does slow down a bit towards the end, but its never the less very watchable.
Reminded me of It's A Wonderful Life actually!

Last week i found time to finally see it, i enjoyed it, but due to class i had to leave early.
The teacher always arrives late, so this week i stuck with the film, and i am glad.
This is Sandler's best acting job yet, it's really a moving film, i was almost in tears, me! and it's got some really funny moments, i think it has the potential as a Sandler turning point.

Click was funnier, smarter and ultimately a much better movie than i thought it would be.

there is one scene that made me laugh out loud and thinking about it still makes me laugh (wont spoil it for u)

I also enjoyed that in the 'serious' bits - they still managed to include some killer gags to remind u that this is a comedy.

if anything, this film 'borrows' alot from other films...but who cares? i loved it.

What a surprise this was. I went merely because I'd seen the Departed and World Trade Centre and the only other films showing were Open Season and Click, so we went with Click. Have to say this was far from what I expected from the film, from the trailer it looked like a silly idea that I imagined would have Sandler using the remote to his advantage to carry out a load of gross out comedy set pieces (Don't get me wrong it does have a couple of these moments and they are funny). But no, this movie had a real heart and although predictable and not sending an original message (basically it's the work/life balance story) it was told in an original and refreshing way that had a few people in our screening a little weepy as they walked out. Good stuff, Sandlers best movie since Happy Gilmore.

i must admit the appeal of adam sandler has escaped me in the past i have only seen one of his previous films wedding singer and wasnt very impressed truthfully it was the charms of kate b that tempted me to this filmplus the potential intersting concept. i know there are times when i wish i could fast forward my working day or relive a recent holiday but click also plays up the nigthtmarish aspects of the idea as well going through whole decades of your life without realising it. that comes later first comes a lot of schoolboy smut jokes which i found myself laughing at nothing like a good fart gag
for releasing your inner child [ im 45 ]. chris v walken adds some class to the proceedings and the makers have cleared watched its a wonderful life kates charms remain undimished and click pushed my switch to on

This film had such a sentimental edge to it by the final 3rd act, it wouldn't have surprised me to see Robin Williams pop up in it to add a bit more schmultz (this is the kinda film he'd have been in all the time in the 90's). Great idea for a ccomedy. poorly executed in a script that laid too heavy on the drama/family edge. If they'd have really let loose with this, it could've been really good. Disappointing - and I'm a Sandler fan.

I am a big fan of Adam Sandler comedys as they are lots of fun. And Clck is no difrent, its realy enjoyable and funny. The third act is pretty awful but overall this is great fun.

This film is fun for the whole family to see with a brilliant plot including funny parts and sad parts especially the ending it is definately a must see. The cast includes Adam Sandler who stars as the main character and makes a very good job of it filling audiences with laughter like many of his films do and even David Hasselhoff, this film never gets boring to see.

I love Kate Beckinsale, Jennifer Coolidge and Christopher Walken. But really this was a piece of shit. I had faith in this movie and I thought it would be funny..i lauged once and I can't even remmber at what. Hasselhoff annoys me butI can tolerate him but here it was just wrong. I saw nothing good about this movie....you may think I am one of theimpacient viewers: you are wrong. I can sit through any 2001: a space odyssey's, there will be blood or anything long like that but I know it will be good (great actually). After the 1st thirty minutes here i was feeling that I would rather asphixate on my own vomit then continue. But people told me wait for the ending..it's great...LIARS..nothing worth waiting for.

Adam Sandler is one of my favourite actors and this is a good film, but it gets a bit too serious. I mean there isn't anything funny about a heart attack. But it does have some good parts, especially Rob Schneider as prince Habibu.

Click is a brilliant comedy for the entire family to watch, Adam Sandler is outstanding in this film, and hit all emotions mostly laughter and few tears at the end. If only life was that simpler controlling it by a remote, unfortunately most men would be in charge of it ;-)
