Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly (Top Critic)

Adam Sandler still coasts on American pop culture's peculiar indulgence of boys who won't grow up

Adam Sandler turns his careless attention to family life in this comedy about a harried white-collar father who acquires a remote control that allows him to hopscotch through time.

Peter Bradshaw Guardian [UK] (Top Critic)

There are more farts and embarrassing sex jokes than laughs -- far more.

This is not a truly awful movie, but it's not worth wasting money on.

Stephen Hunter Washington Post (Top Critic)

A crass physical comedy of unrelenting irrelevance with a gag or two amid the many other examples of bad taste.

Ty Burr Boston Globe (Top Critic)

Click gets its laughs and then sucker-punches us with sentiment; if it doesn't quite represent the new, improved Adam Sandler, it shows him almost desperately trying to figure out who that might be.

Michael Atkinson Village Voice (Top Critic)

It's a farce about loss, and it doesn't flinch.

Jack Mathews New York Daily News (Top Critic)

The film's overall problem is that it asks thoughtful moviegoers to appreciate its good intentions while ignoring its appeal to the basest of adolescent tastes.

Joe Morgenstern Wall Street Journal (Top Critic)

[Click] is an abomination.

Watch Click -- a kind-hearted comic fable about a working father's prolonged supernatural comeuppance -- and tell me it doesn't yank the same chains as It's A Wonderful Life.

Philip Wuntch Dallas Morning News (Top Critic)

It's a high-concept Adam Sandler comedy that never even scrapes the heights. The movie makes a graceless transition from drippy comedy to soggy melodrama. Either way, it's all wet.

Click is a 95-minute illustration of the difference between 'funny' and 'laughable.'

Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times (Top Critic)

The movie is being sold as a comedy, but you know what? This isn't funny.

Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune (Top Critic)

Henry Winkler and Julie Kavner play Sandler's parents, and they redeem what they can of Click, although no one could salvage the ruthlessly sentimental later passages.

J. R. Jones Chicago Reader (Top Critic)

This comic fantasy is the best vehicle he's ever had, a high-concept goof that gradually darkens into an emotional nightmare reminiscent of Capra.

Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer (Top Critic)

This rickety Sandler vehicle finds the comedy star steering through a charmless fantasy of self-discovery.

Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune (Top Critic)

25

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.

Tom Long Detroit News (Top Critic)

67

Its mix of cheap jokes, common fantasy and shared anxiety should resonate with just about anyone who has a pulse. Pause and have a good laugh.

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.

Justin Chang Variety (Top Critic)

Cleverly conceived but conspicuously unfunny.

Lou Lumenick New York Post (Top Critic)

Rarely have I wanted to fast-forward through a movie as much as Click, a treacly and not-funny-enough Adam Sandler comedy about a man who uses a magical remote control to fast-forward through life.

Roger Moore Orlando Sentinel (Top Critic)

40

Click is perfectly watchable, sometimes funny, and occasionally even touching. But it will be better when you can see it on DVD and fast-forward through all the crummy stuff.

Geoff Pevere Toronto Star (Top Critic)

50

Click is about an immature man's bumpy collision with maturity, and that's the perfect subject for the stubbornly frat-based talents of Adam Sandler.

Rick Groen Globe and Mail (Top Critic)

50

Click is a premise in wandering pursuit of a movie. About two hours later, it calls off the search and doesn't so much end as stop.

Andrew O'Hehir Salon.com (Top Critic)

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