JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")
Despite its one-joke premise and rehash of the basics from every other SCROOGE/IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE-type flick (my recent favorite being Brett Ratner’s underrated THE FAMILY MAN), CLICK ultimately came through for me, but on the dramatic side more than ...read the complete Click movie review at JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")

The Movie Chicks
Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) is trying to get ahead to provide for his family. He's a talented architect who willingly takes on projects with impossible deadlines in order to please his boss Ammer (David Hasselhoff) and secure a partnership in the ...read the complete Click movie review at The Movie Chicks
Chicago Reader (J.R. Jones)
This comic fantasy is the best vehicle he's (Sandler) ever had, a high-concept goof that gradually darkens into an emotional nightmare reminiscent of Capra. ...read the complete Click movie review at Chicago Reader (J.R. Jones)

Not everything jells, but Click is funnier and more elaborately clever than anything Sandler's done in years. ...read the complete Click movie review at Dallas Observer (Luke Y. Thompson)

Adam Sandler usually plays a schmuck, but in “Click” he plays a gigantic schmuck. Michael Newman is a workaholic architect with a wife who is too beautiful and too understanding, two kids who are too adorable, and a career that’s always a piece ...read the complete Click movie review at Joe Critic.com (Sam Bear)

ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
Click is flawed but, on balance, it works. It accomplishes what it sets out to do: tell an occasionally amusing, occasionally affecting drama about how adults often lose sight of what matters. There's no subtlety in the approach, but there ...read the complete Click movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
There is probably no film this year I'll struggle with in terms of how I feel about it than Click, a mix of surprisingly mature comedy mixed jarringly with downright juvenile moments of gross-out gags. Many have compared the film to It's a Wonderful Life, ...read the complete Click movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)

“Click” isn’t a complete waste of time, but it’s a horrible waste of talent. The source material has been severely undersold, Kate Beckinsale is given almost nothing to do (as are most of Sandler’s female leads), and the script is like two ...read the complete Click movie review at Bullz-Eye.com
Charlotte Observer (Lawrence Toppman)
Last week, the American Film Institute named "It's a Wonderful Life" the most inspiring movie in the history of the English language. The film was initially a flop, but it's now considered so perfect that nobody would dare remake it - under that title. ...read the complete Click movie review at Charlotte Observer (Lawrence Toppman)

"Click" is an entertaining film filled with every "put family first" cliché in the book, every sappy movie stereotype around and quite a bit of Adam Sandler's typical cinematic stupidity.

Firstly, it's an Adam Sandler movie, and I've never been a big fan of his. I don't find his childish humour or annoying voices amusing in the slightest and Little Nicky has to be near the top of my most hated films list (particularly cos it features so ...read the complete Click movie review at hoopla.nu

The movie is gag-filled, as you would expect of a Sandler movie, but the filmmakers realize they have hit upon an idea that is both clever and good, so they edge their comedy into some darker areas of human behavior. ...read the complete Click movie review at The Hollywood Reporter (Kirk Honeycutt)

"Click" may look like a comedy and sound like a comedy, but it's actually Adam Sandler's mid life crisis arriving just a wee bit ahead of schedule. After a first half that's the epitome of Hollywood high-concept -- summer spun sugar in its most ...read the complete Click movie review at Boston Globe
The Land of Eric (Eric D. Snider)
Random note: In a flashback to 1976, Michael sees himself as a kid asking his friends over to watch "Three's Company." It's no wonder they decline, though, since the show didn't premiere until 1977. ...read the complete Click movie review at The Land of Eric (Eric D. Snider)
