One Paragraph Review: Click

Adam Sandler's movies are starting to become sad, sardonic reflections on where his career has wound up. Like all the other movies from the "Adam Sandler Movie Template," Click has those moments of out of place stupidity just so that Sandler can say something funny in the Adam Sandler Voice. Its half-assed attempts at serious scenes end up as self-parody and, of course, it has a lovely everybody-is-happy ending to go along with that feel-good message about family values that you already knew was coming. And, just to add insult to boring film making, Click absolutely knows that it's crap. It's obnoxiously punctuated with beautiful actresses in basically every single speaking female role, just in case the film's banality starts suffocating you and you need something else to focus your attention on. Christopher Walken and a horny dog provide the only amusement in another forgettable Sandler flick.
