From the man who brought us "The Hannukah Song" and gems like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore, comes Adam Sandler's newest film Click which opened in theaters June 23rd.

Sandler plays Michael Newman, a hard working architect and family man, trying to squeeze in quality time with his wife and kids while climbing the corporate ladder. In a moment of utter frustration with all the remote controls he must navigate in his family room, he leaves his house on a quest to buy a universal remote to make his life simpler. Christopher Walken plays Morty, a Bed, Bath and Beyond salesman who offers him the newest in remote technology, a truly universal remote that can fast forward, pause and rewind one's world.

Michael doesn't realize what he is been given until he sees what this remote can do, just with one "click." Want to skip through a fight with your spouse? Fast forward. Want to go back to your first kiss? Rewind. Want the dog to stop barking? Mute. Michael basks in his newfound freedom, the universal remote being the answer to all of life's hard times and annoyances–no more daily frustrations like traffic and telemarketers–all he has to do is "click" to skip ahead. Well, all he has to do is "click" until the catch comes in- this is a movie after all- there is always a catch. Just like a TiVo remote, his universal remote stores preferences and pretty soon Michael's life is whizzing by, and he sees that this handy remote was way more than he bargained for.

If you like Adam Sandler you will like this film- although he is playing a corporate father, his "Sandlerisms" are plentiful throughout. Click straddles the line between a wholesome family centered film, and a juvenile comedy a la The Waterboy . Sandler is actually a believable father and the beautiful Kate Beckinsale plays his wife Donna and mother of their two children Ben and Sam.

The best part of Click however, wasn't Sandler and his jokes, Kate Beckinsale or the message that family should always come first- the best part of Click was the cast of oddball characters that seem to be prevalent in most Sandler films. People like David Hasselhoff who play Michael's slimy boss, Sean Astin as the red Speedo-wearing swim instructor, Jennifer Coolidge as Donna's insane best friend and Rob Schneider as Prince Habibi are what really make this film worthwhile. Christopher Walken as Morty however, seems to be doing an impression of himself, and a creepy one at that. My favorites were Henry Winkler and Julie Kavner as the perfectly played Jewish and completely lovable grandparents.

Click got me thinking about the moments in my own life I would want to rewind to (summer camp of course) fast forward to (my wedding- I want to know who the groom is!) and mute (the construction workers outside my house before 8am). To any die-hard Adam Sandler fan–get to the theaters now–there are plenty of funny moments that can keep you entertained long after the movie is over. For everyone else - wait to press "click" yourself- from your couch when you put in the DVD version.
