Key Elements: Characters – Concept – Message

My Review:

Most of this movie is entertaining fluff. It’s a story I’ve heard before in other places – just given Adam Sandler’s own touch.

But, the movie took a turn that surprised me – and moved me. It makes an awesome statement about the importance of family, and fathers in particular.

I have never cried at any movie so much as the scene where Sandler’s character says goodbye to his dad. It made the movie for me.
