Click: An Odd Consortium of Vaudeville and Drama
Oddly, Click Addresses a Timely and Important Issue
Adam Sandler and director Frank Coraci (Around the World) bring together an odd combination of bawdy vaudeville humor and realistic dramatic acting in Click. This combination is about as odd as his collection of actors. David Hasselhof doing a parody of a pastMichael Newman's wife, Donna Newman (Kate Beckinsale, The Aviator and Van Helsing) improved greatly as she aged and the children were sweet and (quite obviously) having a good time with Adam Sandler. Michael's parents were ultra-realistic, straight from any body's and everybody's real life.
Adam Sandler, despite his penchant and inexplicable preference for antiquated slapstick comedy, is, surprisingly, a good dramatic actor. He portrayed the struggle and emotion and anguish of his character spot-on. His most dramatic scene, occurring in the street, was no laughing matter. The ending portions of Click, and Sandler's most important scenes, were vividly enhanced by the realistic dramatic acting of Jack Hoffman (Adam and Eve, son of actor Dustin Hoffman).
Click is about a misadventure in the time continuum. An overworked architect, husband and father with admirable ambitions finds himself beleaguered by demands at work and at home. As a result of these demands, he sleeps where he happens to fall over, whether on the sofa or at his desk, and is short-tempered with himself and the rest of his (may I say, slightly insensitive and uncomprehending) beloved family.
